During my furlough from work, I've been so aware of the power we have to help others', to spread positivity, to guide ourselves through very challenging events and navigate our emotions. There is healing in the time spent caring for ourselves, our families and friends, our animals and our planet. <\/p><p>Self love for me starts with my cat Bodhi. Half an hour of cuddles with her in the morning and I am relaxed, peaceful and truly content. All animal lovers out there will know the blissful benefits of time spent nurturing pets. I also get great joy from cooking and making my own candles, both fairly similar processes, good for the soul, but at least with candle making you don't eat the result! Spending time working on these Tees has also given me focus, allowed me more creativity than I have had in years and I get to generate good vibes, with Bodhi ever present. <\/p><p>When we went on furlough in April, I set up Team Furlough on What's app with the gang I work with and it's been such a tonic to hear from them. They are supportive, hilarious, sarcastic and considered in their thoughts, just goes to show how connected you can be to people through the workplace. My Team Furlough have been a huge boost during overwhelming times. Redundancy looms, there is so much uncertainty for the world to steer through right now; we all need some kindness, we all need people like Team Furlough. <\/p><p>So I will sign off my 1st My VitaliTees blog with a thank you to everyone who is putting kindness first; you are awesome, keep it going xxx<\/p><p><\/p><p><\/p>","urlTitle":"the-power-of-kindness","url":"\/blog\/the-power-of-kindness\/","editListUrl":"\/my-blogs","editUrl":"\/my-blogs\/edit\/the-power-of-kindness\/","fullUrl":"https:\/\/my-vitalitees.teemill.com\/blog\/the-power-of-kindness\/","featured":false,"published":true,"showOnSitemap":true,"hidden":false,"visibility":null,"createdAt":1592054136,"updatedAt":1592056524,"publishedAt":1592056524,"lastReadAt":null,"division":{"id":74495,"name":"My VitaliTees"},"tags":[],"metaImage":{"original":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/5ee4ccaa907f83.96731299.jpeg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/5ee4ccaa907f83.96731299.jpeg.jpg?w=1140&h=855","banner":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/5ee4ccaa907f83.96731299.jpeg.jpg?w=1920&h=1440"},"metaTitle":null,"metaDescription":null,"series":[],"similarReads":[{"id":5419,"title":"Size Matters","url":"\/blog\/size-matters\/","urlTitle":"size-matters","division":74495,"description":"Here at My VitaliTees we know that people come in all shapes and sizes and some help with the sizing can go a long way!","published":true,"metaImage":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/5ee9f6a3930666.51528393.jpeg.jpg?w=1140&h=855","banner":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/5ee9f6a3930666.51528393.jpeg.jpg?w=1920&h=1440"},"hidden":0}],"labels":[]}
