Embrace maturing, getting richer in wisdom and knowledge. Learning to love yourself, and give fewer f*cks about what people think.

Sending your body into shock after weeks of excess is not a kind thing to do to it! Go gentle in this most miserable of months. Warming soups, gentle exercise, healthy eating and drinking. There’s no need to go berserk. And you won’t be able to maintain it anyway. Be nice to yourself! 🍲 🥦🍒🍱🫖🍽💙
