Alone time is an incredibly rare occurrence for me and, I’m sure, for many of my Parfait readers! Who has time to be alone when you have business conferences, parent-teacher meetings, grocery shopping, pediatric appointments, all while trying desperately to squeeze in a much-needed hair consultation?
I’ve begun to take these rare moments very seriously because it’s the only time that I get to mentally pamper myself. For starters, I like to walk around in my lingerie because, believe it or not, it’s a great boost of confidence. Give your body some TLC the next time you’re home alone. It’s a little awkward at first, but you’ll begin to embrace your curves in no time! Lingerie just has a way of making every woman feel sexy.
Here’s my ultimate cheat sheet on how to take advantage of, what I like to call, “my selfish minutes in heaven”. You’ll begin to feel like yourself again by doing the things that bring pleasure to your life.
Enjoy your mid-morning wake-up call with a warm cup of coffee. Turn off your phone.
Now is your chance to read that romance novel you bought two weeks ago, but haven’t had a chance to flip open.
Shake what your mama gave you! We all practice our dance moves when no one is watching. This counts as exercise, right?
I love online shopping at home. I know what does/doesn’t look good on me. I know my true size and never try to size down. I know what colors enhance my skin tone. The key is to know your body.
