The key to a successful morning is starting the night before. There are so many benefits to having a consistent evening routine, but it can be incredibly hard to implement one. Trust me, I know! Until recently, my nighttime routine was nonexistent. It was really starting to show the next day through fatigue, stress and just an overall sense that I hadn’t gotten the rest and rejuvenation that I needed the night before. I decided enough was enough - and now, after a few weeks of implementing an evening routine, I’m reaping the benefits. Today I'll talk you through a five step realistic, research-backed evening routine that will help you sleep better and feel more calm, not more overwhelmed. You deserve it! Show me your evening routine! Tag me at @rawbeautytalks on IG and I would love to regram it! Struggling to create consistency in your habits?

Why do we set goals for ourselves and then not follow through? It’s not because we’re lazy or because we lack discipline, and it’s not because we don’t care. The all or nothing mindset that we approach goals with can set us up for failure. So today we’re going to explore a different way to create consistency around a new goal - one that is focused on alignment, self compassion, and flexibility. Because consistency isn’t about perfection. It’s about coming back again and again, despite moments when you might have fallen off. Today we’ll cover:  Moving away from all or nothing thinking  Shifting your identity to match your goal  Creating a flexible plan and structure for consistency The importance of forgiveness and self compassion when creating consistency  How to navigate friction when you’re trying to create a new habit  Are you loving the show?
