Self-Care Tips and Hacks

Here at Dwell in Magic, you’ll find self-care tips, hacks and ideas that will transform the way you live your life. Self-care is not so much an activity as it is a way of being and showing up for yourself.

On this page, you will find a list of all of the most popular and helpful self-care articles that have been published here at Dwell in Magic. And the list is always growing, so be sure to bookmark this page!

Self care tips

Self-care is a concept that I stumbled upon several years ago and it began very simply for me. I had a book, a journal and a candle on my nightstand. What has unfolded in my life since then has been deep, transformational healing, spiritual evolution, and becoming very familiar with who I really am.

I find most self-care advice to be shallow and lacking in depth. There is so much more to you than you realize, and true self-care is the path that leads you to this place inside you.

Self-care is self-love, self-compassion, self-discipline, self-growth, and self-healing. It is all of those things and more. It’s a way of living and loving. Of showing up for yourself even in the hardest, most darkest moments.

I hope that you enjoy browsing through these articles and that something speaks to you. I’ll be updating this page monthly as new articles are written.

I'm an advocate for self-love, discovery, and looking up at the stars to remember how vast it all is. I believe in the power of your mind, the power of self-care and the power of believing in the unseen. There is so much more to the story that we are just beginning to understand.

I'm a new blogger and found your blog planner a couple weeks back. I instantly fell in love with it, it was everything I was looking for and more. I have a horrible habit of buying planners and never using them, until I bought this one. I always have it next to me when I blog and I'm constantly pulling it out to add things to it.
