2024 is ____.
2024 has been a ____.
2024 has made me feel like ____.
Go ahead, fill in the blanks.
Feng Shui is all about balance, harmony and flow. When you are in flow, your health is optimal, your relationship and work flourishes and your inner and outer worlds are aligned and harmonious.
That said, 2024 has been pretty unflow-like, and on top of that, I’m SURE that your plate is very, very full.
So what if I told you that to boost your qi/chi, you can say to hell with everyone and do whatever the heck you want for a full-blown day, or 3?
In celebration of Thanksgiving next week, I’ve created a unique, reverse psychology, Feng Shui inspired SELFISH RITUAL.
It’s exactly what it sounds like. A ritual, kinda like brushing your teeth, but for no reason other than for your enjoyment. Not even for the health of your teeth.
Use my below suggestions as prompts and inspiration, and feel free to change it to whatever your selfish heart desires. Just make sure that whatever selfish ritual you create is easy and, most importantly, brings a spicy and defiant smile to your face because, that’s a sign of buoyant chi 😉
Here’s a glimpse into what this Selfish Self-Care Ritual could look like – and of course, make it as many steps as you like!:
- Don’t shower
- Wear your scrubbiest but comfiest outfit to lie around in
- Eat your fave foods, regardless of their nutritional value, as messily as possible. Leave the dishes (if you use any) on the counter.
- Cover up all the mirrors in your home and don’t give a hoot about what you look like
- Change your status to “do not disturb, I’m in the bathroom“
- Choose 3 people to stay in touch with for the rest of the year. To hell with everyone else.
- Change your personal email auto reply to “today I’m deleting every email that’s coming in today. If it’s urgent, email me tomorrow or leave me the shortest voicemail. If it’s not short enough and to the point, it will also be deleted.“
- Doom scroll social media or watch trashy Netflix for 90 minutes or any increment of 9 (auspicious Feng Shui number).
- Blast your fave tunes and sing at the tops of your lungs, even if you can’t hold a tune for your life
So how’s that for a Selfish Self-Care Routine? Let me know in the comments what you think.
Tonight, when you crawl back into your unmade bed, you can relish in the fact that this was YOUR day, nobody elses. Tomorrow, if your cup is full again, you can be nice to everyone else.
Have fun and Happy Thanksgiving my Loves!
