📚 What We're Reading
Oh my goodness, you have to read this book!
Just imagine, a mystical library at the edge of the cosmos. Filled with books that show countless versions of your life. Each book on a special shelf just for you reveals a different path you might have taken with every choice you’d made to this point in your life.
That’s the setup of The Midnight Library by Matt Haig. Nora Seed is the lucky/unlucky woman who finds this cosmic library when her life hits rock bottom.
In the library, Nora can live lives where she stayed with her ex, chose a different career, or became a glaciologist. As she explores these realities, she faces a big question: what makes life truly fulfilling? It’s a magical story about finding meaning and joy in our own lives.
📋 To Do List
This week, let's sprinkle a little extra care and sunshine into our lives:
✅ Positive Affirmation: Each morning, remind yourself to find happiness in the simplicity of your daily routine.
✅ Self Care Focus: This week, set aside just 8 minutes each day to follow a daily stretch routine. Make it your new favorite way to relax and recharge.
✅ Be The Sunshine: Inspired by our Good News story, why not donate something you no longer use but is in good condition? Spread the love!
There you have it, ladies! A little sprinkle of joy, a dash of inspiration, and heaps of self-love coming your way this month. Can't wait to catch up again soon. Stay fabulous!
Keep shining, and until next time, embrace your fabulous self!
