How do I nourish myself?

04.04.2018
Mind | Blog | by: Rens Kroes

I used to be someone who was always there for everyone. I think that it had something to do with insecurity. I didn’t stick up for myself and it required huge amounts of energy to keep everyone happy all the time (which, by the way, is something I’ve found out is impossible). I did nourish myself by taking good care of my body, but it wasn’t enough; I was never able to fully recharge.


Picture: Nick Onken

What I noticed is that I often found myself feeling low in terms of energy and I never seemed to be able to fully be there for the people I really cared about. I wasn’t able to pick and choose. I was open to everyone. Now that I have my own business (soon to be two! Whaaat?), I notice that I’ve become better able to take a step back and recharge by doing things that give me energy, like dancing in the living room, reading an inspiring book (I just finished Marianne Williamson’s Return to Love!), making dinner and enjoying it together with friends, taking a bath, walking through New York with my favorite music playing on my headphones (that’s when I really feel like I’m on top of the world), or taking a fitness class (I love Soulcycle!). When I do these things, I feel like I’m in full bloom. I’m better able to set boundaries and to give people the energy I am able to give. As much as I want! Because that’s what I want, to give love. How do you nourish yourself?

Love,

Rens

    I’m the owner of JustCBD Store label (justcbdstore.com) and am aiming to develop my wholesale side of business. I really hope that anybody at targetdomain is able to provide some guidance . I considered that the most suitable way to do this would be to talk to vape stores and cbd retail stores. I was hoping if anyone could suggest a trusted website where I can buy Vape Store Email List I am already checking out creativebeartech.com, theeliquidboutique.co.uk and wowitloveithaveit.com. Not sure which one would be the most ideal selection and would appreciate any assistance on this. Or would it be much simpler for me to scrape my own leads? Ideas?
