My Selfish Minutes in Heaven
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.
