I Was Like “oh No! He’s Gonna Eat These Poor Pups” But Nah

Just trying to get a drink of water

I shall be obliged to wander to the right and to the left, that I may investigate and discover the truth.

5 easy steps to take care of yourself everyday

Take care of yourself. Be the person who has the confidence to take situations into your own hands and trek through life’s struggles. How can you improve your day to day activities to be the best version of yourself? Let it start with you - take matters into your own hands. Here are 5 easy & essential thoughts you could use to take care of yourself.

Drink water

This one is an essential! Strive to drink 8 8-ounce glasses of water a day - stay hydrated to be able to function optimally throughout the day. Many people who complain of headaches in hot weather may not know that they may be dehydrated! 

Aim to get a consistent, sound sleep every night

Most adults need 7 to 8 hours of sleep per night. Any less can make you feel sleepy the next day… and the day after that… It’s best to stop work an hour before you intend to sleep and keep it very calm in the evening!

Devote time during a week to do your hobby

What’s your hobby? Whether it’s hiking, reading, singing, or something unique, spending time to do something you love is both relaxing, productive, and fun. For example, if you’re a music enthusiast in school from 8am-3pm, you could spend an evening listening or recording music. The purpose is to help you strike a balance in your life.

Catch up with your thoughts, your friends and family

It is always a meaningful time to reflect on your goals, your hopes, and to catch up with your friends and family. I challenge you to message someone you care about today and see how they’re doing. They may be pleasantly surprised.

Organize your day based on your goals

What’s better than ending your day knowing that you’ve began to complete your daily/weekly/monthly goals? You can take a piece of paper and write down what you want to achieve, and by when. It’s important to set realistic goals to better maximize your productivity and results! 

Taking care of yourself is a basis to improving your life. You can start today. :)

Feel free to message Psych2Go on Tumblr with your thoughts or if you have anything to add!

Take care,

Opposite Mirrors

“It is okay to be at a place of struggle. Struggle is just another word for growth. Even the most evolved beings find themselves in a place of struggle now and then. In fact, struggle is a sure sign to them that they are expanding; it is their indication of real and important progress. The only one who doesn’t struggle is the one who doesn’t grow. So if you are struggling right now, see it as a terrific sign — and celebrate your struggle.”

— Neale Donald Walsch (via purplebuddhaquotes)

“You are not stupid. You are not ugly. You are not worthless. You are not weak. You are not a burden. Your anxiety is lying to you.”
