Soft Life Does Not Have To Mean All Things Luxury

 What Does Living A "Soft Life" Mean To You?

    For the past couple of months, the term "Soft Life" has been circulating all social media platforms. However, with the way social media likes to portray things, a lot of people may get the wrong impression of the term "soft life". When I think of "soft life" I am living my dream. I am not letting small things get to me, I am surrounding myself with people who genuinely care about me, I am happy, I am doing things that I enjoy. For example, waking up and doing absolutely nothing all day except eat ice cream and watch Housewives of Atlanta is a soft life to me lol. 

You Can Create Your Own "Soft Life"

    Now, don't get me wrong. This term can be used however the individual sees fit. If you have the financial ability to take lavish trips, purchase high end items, and eat at 5 star restaurants every week to wine down from the work week etc, by all means go for it. I just don't like how on social media that is all I am seeing. The average person is not able to afford those things, so when they see people online creating their "soft life" they feel as though they cannot do it because they do not have the finances too. Well, I am here to tell you it is okay. You CAN create your own interpretation of a soft life. Remember, it's what makes YOU happy. What brings YOU joy. But most importantly what brings YOU PEACE!

   Here are some ideas that you can implement to create a soft life without spending any money

• Go for a walk on the beach at sunset or sunrise 
• Cook your favorite meal and watch your favorite show or movie
• Take a nice bath or shower then exfoliate using a nice body scrub
• Go for a walk around your community or neighborhood 
• Journal (My favorite)
• Stay in bed and read your favorite book
• Tell Google or Alexa to play your favorite songs and just dance
