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.

Using this medium, I would like to express my gratitude to SPYLORD BTC RECOVERY. They attempted to use their hacking expertise to help my husband and I retrieve our $500,000 worth of stolen cryptocurrency. We thought we would never get our money back from those phoney internet investment websites, so we were skeptical at first. but it worked and we got our money back. I’m so glad I found them early. They retrieved about 98% of the total amount we lost.

INVEST IN CRYPTO MINING-SYNACK HACKERS
Investments is one of the best ways to achieve financial freedom. For a beginner there are so many challenges you face. It’s hard to know how to get started. Trading on the Cryptocurrency market has really been a life changer for me. I almost gave up on crypto at some point not until I saw a recommendation on Elon Musk’s successful success story and I got a proficient trader/broker Mr Bernie Doran , he gave me all the information required to succeed in trading. I made more profit than I could ever imagine. I’m not here to converse much but to share my testimony; I have made total returns of $20,500.00 from an investment of just $2000.00 within 1 week. Thanks to Synack Hackers I’m really grateful,I have been able to make great returns trading with his signals and strategies .I urge anyone interested in INVESTMENT to take a bold step in investing in the Cryptocurrency Market, he can also help you RECOVER your lost funds.
