“Whenever I look at wellness features on TV or in magazines, I tend to see a really glamorous, one-dimensional view of what self-care encompasses. 🎁💆🏻‍♀️💅Pamper sessions; yoga retreats; 🖼weekend hotel getaways; 🛁bubble baths. These are all awesome - but the reality is, everyday self-care is pretty boring and un-sexy 🤷‍♀️ For me, self-care is about going to bed at the same time every night and hassling my husband to do the same, so that we don't wake up tired and grumpy . . 🚫It's about turning off all social media notifications so that I can actually 'live' and 'be' in each moment, without being on call 24/7 . . 🥗🍣🍫It's about eating healthy meals every day, but also allowing myself to enjoy little treats It's about being open with my husband when I'm struggling emotionally and being brave enough to listen to my body and cancel plans if I need to rest. It's also about learning to listen to my gut instinct and say no to people or opportunities that don't serve me in a positive way” . . ...A little snippet from an interview I did with health and fitness travel for their #StrongHealthyWomen series. Thanks so much Samantha and Manuel for your support! You can read the full feature here: https://www.healthandfitnesstravel.com.au/blog/strong-healthy-women-jas-rawlinson
💜💔 RIP #hannahclarke “Don’t be afraid to take action” If you have a suspicion that domestic violence is going on in your community and you call the police and it turns out to be nothing...there’s no harm in that. But it’s so much worse if you sit back and do nothing...and then find out you could have helped save a life Don’t be a bystander 💜 My message to the Carindale/Camp Hill community yesterday morning after the horrific news of the murder of Hannah Clarke and her children . . . . . . #hernamewashannahclarke #domesticviolenceawareness #strongcommunity #carindale #camphill #brisbane #violenceagainstwomen #endviolence #inspirationalspeaker #bardot #pinkjacket #afaquamarine #bluehair
This morning I had the pleasure of being interviewed on #phoenixradio about the impact of social media on self esteem, and whether #makeupfree challenges can help people to create impactful conversations around self love While on the show, I shared 5x simple ways to begin moving from self-hatred to self love, and I thought, hey, why not share them here too? So here’s my top 5 for developing healthy self esteem: . . ● #1: Start journalling — think about what you DO you like about yourself (both physical and personality traits) . . ● #2: What are you good at?​ if your low self esteem stems from a lack of perceived value, focus on something you’re good at ​and begin exploring it more deeply . . ● #3: find a way to give back. Did you know that studies have found #volunteering boosts self esteem and mental health? . . ● #4: If your insecurity stem from physical traits, dig deep and question these insecurities. Why do you think your pigmentation/big ears/big nose/small boobs are a flaw? Who is telling you that it is? And are these people/brands making you feel bad simply because they’re trying to sell you something? . . ● #5: Get rid of toxic social media accounts that make you feel shit about yourself. Instead, spend time following interesting, inspiring people who are making this world a better place! 2x of my faves are @celestebarber and @turiapitt ❤️ . . Now it’s your turn.
