this week i set up some shelves behind my desk and added some postcards of some of my favorite paintings.. im so happy! but,, i spend all my free time gazing at the renoir instead of doing work....

Things that did wonders for my mental health:

having enough sleep and a fixed sleeping and waking time ( at least on the weekdays)

starting my day with gratitude (things to be grateful for: being alive, having a body, a mind, a soul, health, family, friends, food and water, safety, a roof over your head, your education, your job, your free time... seriously there is so much to be grateful for) and praying for my family’s wellbeing

any type of movement - it can be as light or as intense as you’d like it to be: stretch in bed, hop on your yoga mat, go for a walk, go to the gym...

showering = instant rebirth

diligently doing your skincare routine

nourishing your body. no counting calories/ no restricting. feeding your body all the nutrients it needs to function

making a to-do list in the morning

journaling at night

reading before bed

doing a monthly habit tracker

having enough time to get ready in the morning and not rushing

checking in with your loved ones weekly

listening to podcasts - especially motivational and uplifting ones

learning something new everyday - never underestimate the power of those 4- 8 minutes educational videos on youtube

doing yoga

allowing myself to make mistakes

Stay motivated

all the memes about translation on this site are so depressing they're all about the inevitable loss of meaning or impossibility to communicate the original text. but like. surely on this, the transgender website, we should know how to appreciate the beauty and meaning to be gained in an act of transformation more

I regret to inform you I’m #bts trash.

THIS is the bear cave painting i was talking about, the line weight, the proportions, the fine details around the face, and the fact that this all had to be drawn from memory, idk man, it’s incredible to me. if i could meet one person from history it’d be the person that painted this bear 30,000 years ago

i hate you trick questions i hate you intentionally vague wording i hate you unnecessary information in the question i hate you "figure it out yourself" i hate you not enough instruction i hate you no set format i hate you five versions of the same formula with no direction on when to use them i hate you academic vagueness

Progress doesn't happen over night, but sometimes if you flip your mindset enough at once it can.

An example:

What if, tomorrow morning, you woke up bright and early. You did skincare and hair care. You made yourself a smoothie, did 20 minutes of yoga, cleaned your house, went to the gym, stretched, made a delicious lunch to take to work, showered, went to work, came home and made a nutritious dinner. Then, you prepped a salad for tomorrow's lunch, slurped downs protein shake, and finished up your laundry. And you soaked your sore feet in Epsom salts and oils and rose petals and you watched your favorite show with a glass of whatever suits you.

Sometimes all it takes, truthfully, is ONE day of saying "I'm doing it" and you actually do it. You actually stick to your lists and your goals and you feel great. And then the next day you feel so great you do it again.

Then the weekend comes, and you look at your to do list going "oh God what didn't I do" and your list was clear. So you go out for coffee with your friends and sit at the park with a book in hand and get excited for tomorrow. Because now you have plans.

Make tomorrow that day.
