How to feel good in my skin (again & again)

- A personal guide & written reminder.

 

Take a minute. Take off your shoes. Take a look.

An actual, honest look.

Now, decide and - finally - take a little extra care of yourself.

 

Like proper care, extra care and because you need it, for what appears like - more than others. 

And i’m talking real care, less bullshitting yourself.

 

More walks, more swims; more solitude. Moderation.

Ok, and maybe - a little more compassion.

 

More men’s clothes.. like drill; workwear; like Hard Yakka - and more often! 

Holes/ paint/ dirt, the more derelict the better.

 

Now – just begin to feel what it feels like to feel more like yourself.

More grounded, and gathered and dare i say, more beautiful.. more than any bloody dress could ever make you feel.

 

Also, feel free to feel sexy again! Slash feel more confident having it.

-

Meditate.

-

Masturbate. 

-

Now - please write! I know it’s new to you but I also know how it makes you feel and that you also feel it’s part reason what you’re here for. @homecoming.store

 

Keep saying yes to honest yeses, and no to all the “fuck no’s”; listening to yourself and listening less to others.

 

Keep bathing, basking and laying down just that little longer; a lot longer.. actually feeeel your breathe fill your lungs.

Also, fuck you feel a lot.

 

Never stop living for 8am ;), 5pm ;) (am i right) and of course, croissants..

 

Now finally, feel how good you feel in your skin. (again)
