Boudoir as a form of Self Care | Columbus Ohio Boudoir

SELF CARE

As women, it's all too common for us to put our self-care on the back burner. Between, work, households, families or children, there’s not much time left on the clock for bubble baths or reading a good book.

But self-care, girl you need to keep up with that. Self-care looks different from person to person. For me, self-care looks like sleeping in a little extra on the days when I can, it’s spending an extra 10 minutes each night doing my skincare rather than just using a makeup wipe and hitting the pillow. It’s making time for my gel manicures every 2-3 weeks. It’s making sure I take my medications each day- because my body needs the support. But you know what else?

A boudoir session can be self-care. A boudoir session can help you honor your body in a way you have never honored it before. It can change the way you see yourself, the way you talk to yourself. It can put some pep-back-in-your-step, and give yourself a newfound sense of self and self-worth. You should never, ever feel guilty about doing things for yourself, taking time away from the daily grind to fill your cup so that you can be the best version of yourself. If it makes you feel good, keeps you sane, or if you think it's going to help your confidence or see your beauty - that matters, too.

“I lied and said I was busy. I was busy; but not in a way most people understand.

I was busy taking deeper breaths.

I was busy silencing irrational thoughts.

I was busy calming a racing heart.

I was busy telling myself I am okay.

Sometimes, this is my busy - and I will not apologize for it.”
