I grew up surrounded by constant chatter and company, so I never noticed the fact that I struggled to be alone. It wasn’t until I got older and couldn’t sit in silence that I realised I didn’t know how to be in my own company.
Noticing I couldn't spend time alone, I realised I had a choice: to find safety in silence or keep sulking with the emotions.To ease myself into spending time alone, I started daily wellness habits, including savouring my morning tea, walking in the sunshine, gentling jogging in the park, reading books and attempting new Pinterest recipes.
So far this month, I have made myself a daily breakfast and blocked out an hour of my calendar each day to spend alone.for the night, ordering room service and enjoying the queen-sized bed like a starfish.
