When is the last time you said goodbye? Maybe it was this morning before you left the house or maybe…you need to say goodbye to something you don’t love. You shouldn’t feel bad about saying goodbye to things you don’t love but think of it as loving yourself!
We often need to “let go” in order to truly care for ourselves. It is often a relationship that we need to let go of to prioritize ourselves! When you have a relationship that no longer aligns with your values, wellbeing or personal growth, leaving it (even when it is difficult) demonstrates that you love yourself.
I truly feel that some relationships are in our lives for a reason and often that is a short period of time. Not all relationships exist in our lives forever. We also may “mourn” when that relationship ends because we feel we have lost ourselves or the shared future we thought we would have.
However, saying goodbye is an opportunity for closure. Having that closure is important because it allows us to process it and move forward, which supports our own self-care. We can respect that relationship’s role in our life while it was part of our life but letting go shows self-love!
Step 3 is to let go and say goodbye if you need to!
