While working and lounging at home for the past few months was the perfect chance to enjoy our own space, it got us thinking about the time-old phrase – ‘home is where the heart is’. We realised, to be a true homebody, we have to feel at home with ourselves before we can find home anywhere else. So what can we do to embrace our inner homebody? Here are some of the ways we at Homebodii HQ like to find home in our hearts.

Meditation...

Whether it’s before bed, in the morning, or at little points throughout your day, meditation comes in many forms – each unique to different homebodys. That special routine of taking a couple of minutes each day to ground yourself is so important for our hearts and minds. Each homebody will have a different meditation routine that works for them, but in case you’re feeling stuck, here’s a super simple way to ease yourself into finding your centre, and your true inner homebody. 

Start with only 2 minutes a day, at a time that will work for you every day. If you’re at home, grab your favourite pair of comfy pyjamas, and find a quiet spot. Start to focus on your breath, feeling it move through your heart and mind, without letting your thoughts wander. Doing just this for 2 minutes a day will leave you feeling grounded and is a super step to feeling at home with ourselves!

Positive Affirmations...

There’s nothing better for self-love, and finding home within your heart, than including positive affirmations in your daily routine! Take the time to write yourself some positive messages and stick them around your home and workplace, as little reminders that you are amazing!

Another little routine we love is to create a list of your positive affirmations, and challenge yourself each day to add one more to the list! Remind your heart and mind that you are a strong, beautiful, amazing homebody!
