Why you need to romanticize your life

Today is the first day of the month, a perfect time to start fresh and try something new.

A new hobby, a different approach to life or, simply new thoughts.

I am making March the month of Femininity. I am going to try and slow down and romanticize everything I do!

What is romanticizing your life?

Romanticizing your life is basically finding the joy in everything.

When we do normal, every day tasks and try to elevate the experience, that is Romanticizing your life.

When I first learnt about this way of life, I would think thoughts like ‘who has the time for that?’

I am a busy, homeschool mom of three and I the thought of slowing down actually gave me anxiety! If i slowed down who would be doing all the things!

I then read an article about enjoying the little things in life because, they are actually the big things!

Things you can do to romanticize your life

🌹 Light a candle in the morning while you drink your morning coffee. Drink out of your favorite mug. Put on some relaxing music or do a visualization. Make your morning drink of choice, an experience.

🌹 Buy yourself flowers, just because. I have recently started to do this. I would often wait for my husband to buy me flowers on Valentines day or for my birthday but when I started buying them at the grocery store while grabbing everyday items, it sparked joy! This also helped me to love myself a little better.

🌹 Plan your meals ahead and make cooking an experience instead of a chore. Go to the fancy grocery store for ingredients, even if it’s one item. One thing I like do is play a show or movie as I cook and also make my favorite cup of tea. I will search pinterest on a Sunday and get excited about all of the new recipes I want to try. Planning will also take the stress out of thinking about what to make.

🌹 Use the good China! All of the things you keep for a special occasion, use them any day of the week!

I love the ideas below @centeredAtHeart, it really inspired me.

🌹 Make yourself the main character in your life. If you think of you in a movie, who would you be and what would you do? Try and bring this into your every day life.

When I think of this for me, I am living on a farm, growing my own food and planting beautiful flowers and plants in my garden! To put these thoughts into action, I only buy locally grown food from farmers markets and I always buy myself pretty flowers. In my mind, I am already living this life.

🌹 Make bedtime feel luxurious! This is something that I am trying for the whole month of March consistently.

I love to get my bedroom ready for sleep. About 20 minutes before I go to bed, I will put on my essential oil diffuser and diffuse some lavender essential oil. Lavender is known for its calming properties. I will also turn on my salt lamp to help me relax and spray some calming pillow mist on my sheets so that when I get into bed, it smells so good! I also invested in some good quality, pink satin sheets and i will tell you, my sleep quality has never been better!

I promise you that romanticizing your life will make everything so much more fun and exciting. When we are in joy, we are a vessel for so many good ideas and we bring our manifestations closer to us.
