SMALL WAYS TO MAKE YOUR EVERYDAY LIFE BETTER-

-

 If you’ve ever sat down and reflected on your day, you would realize you would spend at least half of your day doing mindless tasks being half present and conscious of what you’re doing. 

Here’s a few ways of making your everyday life better-




  1. Meditate: I know when i say this, you would imagine a saint sitting on a mountain with eyes closed and chanting. But the Wonders of meditating are unlimited. It can make you feel at peace, live in the present moment. Practicing meditation for atleast 5 minutes a day can change your life. The tough part is, to make it a habit. Once you are past it, It is pure bliss


Apps to use for guided meditation-


Medito

Headspace

Calm





2. Journaling- Having a gratitude journal or a daily journal can hlp you reflect on your day. You can do this at the start of each day- to write to-do list or at the end of each day to reflect on your highs and lows of the day.



Suggested app for overall well being-


Intellect-Eliminate limiting psychological habits and beliefs that refrain you from having higher self-esteem, overcoming procrastination or being a happier person.



3. Self care- whether it is mosisturizing your face, brushing twice a day, choose something that relaxes you, makes you feel better about yourself and do it everyday


Some easy starter habits of self care

  1. Writing a gratitude journal

  2. Brushing twice  a day

  3. Cleaning your room before going to bed

  4. Working out




4.  Put your phone away- Half hour before your bed time, put your phone away, read a book, listen to calming songs to fall asleep or do your skin care routine but stay away from your phone.

Even after you wake up, stretch, wash your face. The first 10 minutes of how your day starts determine the mood for the rest of the day. Don’t let the world get to you, first thing in the morning






5. Clean- I mean this seriously, it is mental peace. When your physical space is clean, you will feel less cluttered ( mentally & physically) . If not daily, do it on a weekly basis and see the difference

Things Nooone Tells You About Grief

For a while now, I've been trying to look for comfort in words. When I experienced loss, the kind of loss that shook my body away (literally) mentally and physically, I took my time to heal and more usually than not, I gravitated towards reading. Reading about someone facing familiar emotions and feelings kept me sane. I hope that this post helps you find comfort if you've ever experienced loss or are still trying to mend your heart.   There's a scar on my left leg and it has been that way for a while, something which I had developed recently due to let's say, carelessness. Everyday I took my time examining it, I realized  it changed colors but never turned better. I eventually stopped caring. But my loved one(who I lost, recently) made it a point to ask me how bad the scar was, everyday. After a while, when I started caring again, I looked over the scar, it got better.  I think grief is a lot like that,  it changes colors, takes it's time to heal  but even...

A little bit of today |A little bit of tomorrow Epiphanies and Reflections I've been trying to write for a while now, but I just couldn't.  I recently read something on Tumblr that helped me kick start writing. I'll link it here- Read this here It's been one month today. One month that I've lost another significant part of my life in a span of one year. It's almost funny how time flies by. The other day, I told my mum "The best and worst thing about life is that, it moves on."  It feels like life is on autopilot, whether we choose it or not.   Do we really move on or do we distract ourselves to maintain our sanity? A few months back, when I was redoing my room, I bought the glow in the dark stickers for the ceiling. It just reminded me of my childhood days and I'd have my own sky to stare at, at night.  I don't remember the last time I looked up at my ceiling and admired them.  I either read like there's no tomorrow or I don't read at a...

  One thing I absolutely love and spend most of my free time doing is finding new things- Art, Books, Music, Shows, Movies, Poems and I can go on and on and on. Most things I find are usually through Pinterest, YouTube Comments, Following a few YouTube Channels, Reading an Author’s Favorite or about his inspiration (Always a great way to find great art) . Here are a few things I’ve discovered this month so far- Music: Let’s start with something easy. I don’t really have a specific genre of music that I like but I think it could be broadly classified as Retro Chill or Vintage Vibe. This month I’ve Come across something a little different.  Halsey’s - “I'm not a Woman, I’m a god Halsey’s- “Girl is a Gun Cage the Elephant’s -”Cigarette Daydream” Lord Huron’s - “Long Lost” Honestly, I love the Lyrics of Halsey’s new songs, Makes me feel confident and powerful but Cigarette Daydream and Long lost have been playing on loop. Lord Huron’s have a sense of Calm and a weird sense of f...
