Inside
Last summer one of my sons got married and my new daughter-in-law now works at my local salon. Today she gave me a facial.
I have had problems with my skin for a long time and I have regular facial’s because my skin needs it.
Very often I get treatments to maintain my outward appearance as best I can. It doesn’t always work!
How often though do we give the same attention to our inner selves? It’s something that is so easily neglected and I am probably the world’s worst at it.
Just like our skin needs care and attention, so does our hearts and minds. Stress and daily pressures can build up like layers of dead skin and if we don’t take time to work through them the effects can be visible.
So, this year I’m trying to process my emotions instead of pushing them aside and set boundaries where needed.
It won’t be easy and, just like skincare, results won’t happen overnight. But I know with time, consistency and effort the results will be worth it.
Beauty isn’t always about how we look – it’s also about how we are on the inside.
