    On your self-care journey, hopefully, you will find things to do, that will help you increase your self-care. There are ways to help us along the way, and one of them is to STOP Ranting on social media. It zaps your spirit and gives no peace. Get somewhere and sat down. Sing a song that breathes life into your soul, and sing it loud. Also, I have found that scented candles help us relax and wind down from the days stresses. And if you have done the above, get yourself a dog/cat. Animals have a way of allowing us to relax and be calm.

    As young girls, we had lists of who we would marry, how many kids, etc., Some of us have held on to those lists, and cannot figure out why no one met the criteria. Try letting go of that list and just be in the moment. No one can be all the things you want and neither can you. Choose love, and don't be afraid of being vulnerable, and getting your heart broke. While you are deciding whether or not you want to rid yourself from the list, remember that there are things about you that you have no control over, like your name. Nowadays, people legally change their names because they don't like it, or they feel others won't pronounce it correctly. Your name means something to your parents, or guardian that named you. Make people put some RESPECT on your name. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/phyllis-ruff/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/phyllis-ruff/support

Let us pass on that which was passed down to us. While becoming a mentor seems great, let us not forget to Check-in with our Spirit. We cannot walk around with an unwell Spirit, a cup that is half full. We need to make sure our Spirit is functioning well, then we can give from a good place because we have that running over (spillage). Also, part of checking in with our Spirit we need to learn to forgive ourselves. Sometimes, forgiving ourselves takes time. So, don't be too hard on yourself.

These things are ways we can help ourselves and others. Volunteering is a great way to meet others but more importantly, occupy ourselves, helping others and not focusing on our problems. As we volunteer, we will learn new things, which we can possibly use, but learning a “New” Language, is definitely a game changer. As well as Reading something that speaks to your soul. Learning and Reading are somethings we can do for the rest of our lives, the only question is, what language will you learn and what is book speaks to your spirit. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/phyllis-ruff/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/phyllis-ruff/support

    Some cool ways to elevate our self-care are sometimes by writing a letter to our future selves, phoning a friend and by asking for help. Writing a letter can be a way of accomplishing goals that you have set for yourself as well as increasing your spiritual wellness. As we grow, we must not forget to phone a friend. Most people have someone to reach out to; someone who can help get us through some painful moments in our life. Lastly, but more importantly, we have to ask for help. Some of us can be too proud to ask for help, but there is always someone we can run things by, or talk to, for help, at whatever we are doing. My military days taught me that there is never a dumb question, except the one not asked. Basically, anything goes.

Healing is for us, and sometimes we must go through the process, to be able to move forward. Along our self-care journey, we need to find something fun to put our energy into. As we heal and find hobbies, we need to make sure we continue to explore black art. Black art tells a story, and some of those stories, we need to hear. So, as we continue on our self-care journey, know that, in order to have the experiences we desire, we have to go through some things that are not always pleasant.

    In a world that is not always kind to black women, we are told to find our joy. Learning that we do not have to earn the joy we seek, we must convince ourselves that it is already ours. While we are finding our joy, we need to write down any ambitions. Writing helps us to remember what we wrote. We need to look at our ambitions and as we achieve them, cross them out or burn them. After we've found our joy, and wrote our ambitions, we must remember to connect with like-minded black women, online. Black women have a wealth of information and need to be able to share with our tribe.
