The turn of a new year calls for time for reflection. We could all do with a little self-love from time-to-time, so we've personally listed a few ways that you can love yourself in 2019.
"We are all perfect as we are, and we could all use a little work."
- Shunryu Suzuki, Buddhist
TAKE MORE PHOTOGRAPHS
As the 21st century rolls on, have you noticed how we snap a photo and rarely see it again? It dies quietly in our camera roll. When you invest in a camera, perhaps something as nostalgic as an Instax Mini Polaroid Camera, your memories are forever captured with an instant print out. Hang your photos with string, keep them in your purse or even make a scrap book to remind yourself of the good times you've had.
TRY OUT A BATH BOMB
Take some time each night to relax. Can't un-wind? Pop down to LUSH (or indeed your local natural bath-bomb artisan) and get yourself a wonderfully colourful (and vegan friendly) bath-bomb. Run a warm bath and take some time to just breathe and watch the colours infuse. You'll love it.

MAKE A MOOD BOARD
When you're setting goals for 2019, ensure that they are realistic and manageable. Sometimes the end-goal can be easier when it's a visual mood board. This can be a physical board or a digital collage; why not make it your phone wallpaper? We'd recommend starting with Pinterest. Fill it with things that will bring you excitement and hope. It can be as simple as trying new hairstyle, picking up a paintbrush or reading more books. 2019 is what you make of it.
MEDITATION
If you've never tried meditation or mindfulness before, we can understand that it sounds daunting; or that it sounds like it's 'not your kind of thing'. What if we told you that it's a breathing exercise that gives you the opportunity to be aware of your thoughts? It's very simple. The awesome guys at Headspace offer 10 free 3-minute sessions for total beginners. We often use this app as a team before starting work and it boosts our productivity and well-being. Download it for iOS and Android devices.

DOES YOUR ENVIRONMENT AFFECT YOUR LIFE?
The simple answer to answer that is Yes. Marie Kondo has a new show on Netflix called 'Tidying Up' (stick with us), a show about helping people manage their life by letting go of the emotional attachment they have to their belongings. Marie's message is simple, "If it doesn't bring you joy, let it go." It's worth a watch, even if it's for the incredible folding techniques she teaches. There's a definite science behind "clean home, clean mind".

MAKE TIME FOR GOOD FOOD
Some people view food as sustenance; simply something we need to do in order to live. But we wholeheartedly disagree with that logic. We challenge you to dedicate a small amount of time each day to make at least one rewarding meal. Emily Scott @whatiateforbreakfast on Instagram makes quick and easy breakfast ideas that are guaranteed to make you feel smug and inspired.
START YOUR DAY WITH POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS
Every morning after our daily meeting, we all think of one thing we're grateful for and share it with the team. If you can find one small happiness a day, it may help you shine some perspective on the small things that actually mean a-lot to you. It doesn't have to be something overwhelmingly amazing everyday, just try to think of it's significance to you. Ask a friend. Tweet it. Share it. Get it out there. Speak it into existence.
GET FLEXIBLE
You know the feeling, right? You drive to work, sit down behind a desk, drive home and sit back down. When did we become so in-active? If you try some simple stretching through the medium of yoga, we will guarantee that you'll feel refreshed and mobile. We followed this super easy yoga tutorial for total beginners and we think you should try it, too. You never know, you may love it and make it your new hobby of 2019.

Hello everyone, my name is Sandra Fangher. For quite some time, My husband was living in another apartment due to work pressure and we were very much happy together even though he stayed apart from us for some months. Little did i know a colleague from work was already having an affair with him which made my husband file a divorce. I knew something was wrong because we never had to fight or argue that much to make him leave. I was traumatized and i search for help to tackle the situation which led me to DR Mahlangu from praises people showered on him online. We discussed at length and he told me everything I needed to know about what happened and the due process to fix the problems. He fulfilled his promises and got my husband back to me and the divorce process was canceled. Now my husband is back home to us and we are happy together. Its indeed amazing how people can genuinely help other people when they are in need. Dr Mahalngu also cure all kinds of sickness and cast spells such as: Love spell Good job spell Fruit of the womb Business spell Win Ex back spell Promotion spell Win Lottery spell Win court cases Spell for cure of any illness Contact Dr Mahalngu for your help on whatsapp me on: +27787390989 Email: superiorspellhome@gmail.com

My husband and I have been married for about 7 yrs now. We were happily married with two kids, a boy, and a girl. 3 months ago, I started to notice some strange behavior from him and a few weeks later I found out that my husband is seeing another Woman outside our marriage. He started coming home late from work, he hardly cares about me or the kids anymore, Sometimes he goes out and doesn’t even come back home for about 2-3 days. I did all I could to rectify this problem but all to no avail. I became very worried and needed help. As I was browsing the Internet one day, I came across a website that suggested that Dr Victory can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships, and so on. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he did a spell for me. Three days later, my husband came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promised never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned to normal. My family is living together happily again. All thanks to Dr Victory. If you need a spell caster that can cast a spell that truly works, I suggest you contact him. He will not disappoint you. This is his contact address.
