It's time to love yourself again....

Is it just us or has this last year been tough? Actually, if we're being honest, it's possible been longer than that... an increasingly challenging wave of emotions and pressures and failures and struggles and loss and family upsets. We certainly reached the end of 2017 exhausted and feeling confused about how to move forward and which direction to go in.

But one thing was certain - we needed to look inward again, give fuel to our passions and heal our tired souls. And since the beginning of this year that has been our focus. Here in our internal world of Miss Rose Sister Violet we have been focusing on health for 2018 - both mentally and physically. We have looked deep within ourselves and searched for all the broken places in our hearts that needed healing. We have dived to the depths of our souls and searched for all the dying fires that need rekindling. We have peacefully listened to our minds and let them tell us where they are lost, scared, tired, fragile and wounded. We have stopped ignoring our bodies and their tireless ongoing struggle to put up with all the neglect and abuse we throw at them - finally promising to reverse unhealthy habits we have adopted in response to stress and exhaustion. We have made a promise to ourselves that this year health comes first. It MUST. Because without health - there is no way to enjoy the rewards we dream of. And without health there is no way to be the most true versions of ourselves.

So... we wish to share with you our friends all that we find along our healing journey. Inspirational tidbits.. healing recipes... healthy habits... books... art... quotes... anything and everything that will help us all back to a place of loving ourselves and being healthy and strong - in mind and body.

Lets all be kind and loving to ourselves and others, be gentle in all we do and give love to our minds, bodies and souls.

Lets find time to stop and breathe... heal ourselves... and remind ourselves what we love about ourselves and life - and then LIVE that life. Now is the time - to turn inward and find ourselves again. To become healthy, strong and happy. To be selfish so that we can again be selfless. To become strong so that we can again give the best of ourselves to those we love and the world. To find our sparkle again and SHINE like the diamonds we are!
