Define what “health” is to you and it’s okay to set boundaries with your family. You’re showing your body love by doing ___ in a way that’s not limiting. Do you. — Dora #YESxSaje – at Vancouver, British Columbia

Practicing self care in a new city:
Put yourself out there. Be open to people. You‘ll find people you’ll be attracted to, but not what you’re used to. Start doing things you liked to do in your old city & you might gravitate towards people you love 💕

“Figure out what YOU like & have no shame. When we use our voice to declare what we want, we universally attract what’s vibrating at your frequency back into yourself.” — Megan

How can we practice self care in relationships/dating:
Don’t think others will fulfil “missing parts” of you.
Work through expectations with your partners. We get disappointed when they don’t meet expectations we think they know about.
Spend time with yourself!
