Selfishly Made

Where health meets healing. A space for self-love and affirmation. Be selfish.

Unbelievable. Chadwick’s untimely passing is a reminder that black health matters. That we are disproportionately affected by morbidity and mortality. That we need to have open and honest conversations about our health and health history when we are young.

Your legacy lives on. You will be missed. We will not forget your name and what you meant to us.

Thank you, Chadwick. For using your craft and your platform to portray powerful depictions of Black men. For your activism on the big screen. For bringing African culture to the forefront in a major way.

155 years later, we are watching this country continue to label us “enslaved.” We will keep our foot on the neck of injustice, until ALL Black life breathes freely. #BuyBlack. #BlackJoy #HappyJuneteeth

When thinking about maintaining optimal health, “diet and exercise” are only a small piece of the bigger picture.

How are you taking care of your mental health? How do you manage stress? Are you happy? Do you feel safe?

Good morning.
Are you rested? How are you sleeping?

For most of us, rest patterns have been obstructed. We crash, don’t sleep through the night, and may even wake up anxious.

Start your morning off with… https://t.co/PAH3zZFCdo

Not everyone can get the frontlines of the #blacklivesmattermovement erupting in our communities right now for a multitude of reasons, and that is OKAY. Here are a few options on how to show solidarity from home.

[Selfishly Made @SelfishlyM]

Continue to share, donate, give, stand, and love one another. We will be sharing resources and information all month on ways you can get involved. You will be remembered for how you show up in this moment. Remember those who are silent, and stand for those who can't speak.

I’m sorry. I love you. I miss you. You were my family. My neighbors. My friends. They should have protected you. They should have believed you. I’ll write your names down in history so they never forget who you were. You didn’t deserve this. Sleep peacefully.

For me it’s been in the small things. I’m still paging through bell hooks “Sisters of the Yam”.

I rephrase negative thoughts, I pray and meditate before bed.

It’s acceptance, kindness, therapy, healing, confronting fears. It’s prioritizing yourself over the needs of others, even your family.

[Selfishly Made @SelfishlyM]

Loving yourself also looks like being accountable for your actions. It’s not always a face mask (although we love them). It’s being able to say “no” to family, friends, work, and situations that trigger you. Its believing that you are enough always, even when you don’t.

[Selfishly Made @SelfishlyM]

It’s having faith that all things will work together for your good, because the things you are saying, trusting and giving energy to are aligned with your goals and focus. It’s changing habits, blocking people, abstinence, jumping out of your comfort zone.
