Romanticize my Week with Me!

The goal here is to feel like a disney princess at all times, especially when you feel like you’re going through a rut.

Life can start to feel draining, overstimulating, or just stagnant. That’s how the last week has felt for me, so this week I want to be more attentive on how I spend my day and fill my week with joy and lovely feelings. So please follow me on this journey of romanticizing my life and bring the whimsical side of me to the fullest.

Romance: 1. a feeling of excitement and mystery associated with love

2. a quality or feeling of mystery, excitement, and remoteness from everyday life:

Journaling

I love journaling so much! However, whenever I’m going through rough patches ironically, I tend to not have the energy to really journal or do anything. So my first step to bring romance in my life is to whip out my journal and favorite pen, and assess how I’ve been feeling, talk about what’s been weighing on me. Lastly, before I end my journal entry I close it off by showing gratitude as much as I can. It helps regulate my reality vs my negative thoughts and reflects how much greatness I do obtain.

I usually do a face mask at night as a part of my night routine but it doesn’t hurt to feel like a glamorized princess in the morning. While I let my mask sit for about 10-20 minutes, I prance around my room and play some tunes, then afterward I’m left with skin that feels rejuvenated and glowy. 

Speaking of princesses, that brings me to my favorite next step…

I swear this is one of many small cheat codes in life to romanticize your life. I have started doing this in my life after seeing a TikTok video of a girl listening to a Disney princess instrumental soundtrack (shoutout to that girl wherever she is!).

 so, I took that idea and ran with it!

When I feel stagnant in my life or just want some sparkle in my life. I swear this small change can put me in a place of joy and whimsy, feeling like a true princess in my own little world. Plus most of these soundtracks are classical, which also brings this sense of peace.

Want to feel instantly your best?

Put on your favorite outfit and get dolled up. Even if you have nowhere to go. You’re not doing it for anyone else but you. Also, it’s been proven over years that when you look your best, you feel your best. So Luckily, today I had an excuse to get cute, and got some sweet compliments, another thing to uplift your day!

One thing about me, If I’m happy,sad,excited, depressed, or whatever may be the case, I’m getting a sweet treat! But it different lifts my spirit on days that I am not feeling the best or need a little bit of joy in my week. A cupcake,bundt cake, or donut (which is what I ended up getting , of course with sprinkles). Remember, sweet treats only make you feel just alright temporarily, so enjoy your mini gift to yourself and continue to find things you can romanticize. 

I could go on and on about how having a hobby is so important. I would go as far as saying it’s necessary. For me books, writing, and working out are my little hobbies. I enjoy where I can escape into another headspace that allows me to regulate my mind and body. Especially, to ignite more sparks into my life!

Thank you so much for tuning into this post! I know I’ve been pretty M.I.A for sometime but I will get into all those juicy details soon. I hope your week is doing well. If not, I hope this post brings some comfort and tips to bring back that sparkle into your week! 

Tell me if you do any of these already so we can have a convo in the comments! See you on Saturday.
