  5. Put on music that soothes your soul and sit in silence for 10 or 20 minutes.
  6. Make yourself a warm drink and bless it. Then sip it mindfully.
  7. Speak to yourself the way you would to someone you deeply love. I’ve got you.
  8. Say to yourself, I matter.
  9. Take yourself on a soul date. Go to your favorite shop or coffee spot and gift yourself something unique. Something that brings you joy.
