An invitation to create comfort, coziness, safety, and glow Where do you feel most like you — and how can you bring that feeling closer today? 💬💬 Well I'm about to be curled up on the couch with my man. Thai food and a good movie 🍿 🎥 That feels like warmth to me

No filters. No fixing. No “I’ll wait until…” Just you, today. This morning I popped on a new tee I grabbed from Target — $15 bargain 🙌 (Lily Loves if you’re curious). It’s soft. Slightly oversized. One of those “I didn’t know I needed this” finds. And the best part? The second I put it on, I felt good. Comfortable. Like myself. Not dressed up. Not trying. Just… settled. That’s the kind of energy we’re sharing here. 📸 Your turn: Snap a photo of you today — work you, cosy you, messy bun you, post-shower you, school-run you, couch-with-tea you. Upload it in 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳𝗶𝗲-𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 | 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗜𝘀 𝗠𝗲 and then take a moment to leave a kind comment on at least one other sister’s photo. We’re practising seeing ourselves — and each other — with softer eyes. I’ll drop mine below 💛

Hey @Rachael Bermingham Beautiful member here @Fadwa Al Qasem has just finished writing her novel and needs help with publishing Would you be able to connect and see if you could be of help please?

I follow a fellow skooler on the platform Medium. And she is an avid book reader and author, but has just penned this beautiful article about reading Non-fiction the way she reads Fiction. Here is a paragraph that resonated with me: 'Mornings with my tea became a ritual of rereading, underlining passages, jotting down thoughts, and noticing what surfaced as I connected the words to my own life. Sometimes those reflections took me back to things I hadn’t thought about in years.' 'I would finish a book, feel how much I loved it, and jump into the next in the series or find something similar.' And then a thought floated in:What if I did this with my fiction books too? - What if I started underlining or tabbing the sentences that pulled at me? - What if I started writing down my thoughts in the margins? - What if I started having a dialogue with the story as I read? 𝗦𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗸𝘆 𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀, 𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻 is one headline. She now reads books using sticky-notes, writing down lines that truly resonate and then exploring them. writing 'Sometimes I knew why. Other times I didn’t.' Sometimes I knew why. Other times I didn’t." As some of you may recall, I'm not a big reader, but I'd love to be better at it. But this article made me appreciate that reflection and working through the history of our lives does always have to come from a stringent journal practice or prompt. I'd love you to share your thoughts 💭💭💭 🧠 Have you ever done something like this and reflected on life's moments, thoughts and feelings from a non-fiction book ?
