BeLovely began with a woman trying to find peace in a busy life and wanting to share that with others.
From the outside looking in, I was balancing everything beautifully. The reality is I was stressed and overwhelmed. I was giving my all to work and family and realized I wasn’t filling my own cup. Vacations were a perfect time to get away and rejuvenate, but I needed something to restore my peace of mind when I didn’t have the luxury to “escape”.
After spending time learning how to practice mindfulness and self-care, I began making time for myself. Even if I carved out 10 minutes when I first woke up or 20 minutes before I fell asleep at night, I started prioritizing “me time”.
I found personal methods to restore balance to the chaos in my life. These were simple things like lighting a candle with a calming fragrance while writing in my journal. What I was doing was not revolutionary nor did it suddenly make the stress in my life disappear, but I was able to create a toolkit of methods to foster my own personal peace while taking time for myself.
As I became more consistent with this practice, I wanted to share this little slice of happiness with the people around me. I loved giving my favorite candles, diffusers or books to friends. My goal was to share these tools with a larger group.
BeLovely was created as a resource to provide beautiful options to treat your mind, body and spirit or to share as a special gift.
As a black woman, it’s important that I use this platform to empower other women. BeLovely products have been personally curated and intentionally gathered to do just that. I take pride in knowing the majority of the products carried by BeLovely are supplied from women owned businesses and artisans.
BeLovely is here to remind you that no one can pour from an empty cup.
This is the time to care for yourself, rejuvenate your spirit and treat your mind and body.
