My parents have always said this, give your spine a break. Step away. Sit somewhere else for a bit. I didn’t fully understand it when I was younger but I do now, especially on the days when I’ve been at my laptop for hours and my body is clearly asking for a break. I work…
I’ve had days consistently where I’d feel this heaviness in my eyes, in my mind and nothing of it was physical. All the mental work be it my blog work, home chores, decisions, social media, or whatever is happening in the world right now was somewhere affecting me. Like I was literally exhausted physically but…
You already know how to do this. You’ve just forgotten that you do. Our life looks completely fine from the outside. You’re waking up, you are getting things done, completing your chores, everything. And then doing it all again. The days have a rhythm. A routine. A shape. But somewhere in the middle of all…
Saying “I” let go would be slightly inaccurate because honestly, situations unfolded in my life where a lot of my beliefs and everything was just wiped away. Like, my life took it upon itself to do the “let go” thing on a serious level. The universe had other plans. Looking back at the past year,…
The last year was a lot. My Gmail got hacked. Lost my YouTube. That decluttered most of the digital stuff for me. I went through some financial stress that forced me to actually look at where my money was going. Things I was buying just to buy them. A whole habit of spending that was…
If I have to put my emotions in words, I think it would be like, I am a different kind of exhausted ever since 2020 happened. Work, life, emotions…I am tired. The world is moving way too fast! Like….there is always something happening either in our life or just in the whole world that takes…
Some days my brain just won’t rest. One after another all the thoughts it can bring of. Like, constantly, imagining scenarios or thinking about what happened in the past, the way it happened. Everything. Thing is, it’s all about THE MIND. It’s always has been. Our body, as the outer human body is only a…
You ever notice how you can be completely fine one second, and then someone says one thing—one small, seemingly harmless thing and suddenly you’re flooded with feelings you can’t quite name? Or how you keep attracting the same type of person even though you swore last time was the last time? Or maybe you catch…
You’re getting eight hours. You’re going to bed at a reasonable time. You’re waking up with your alarm, not snoozing through five of them. And yet, you feel like you’re moving through life with weights tied to your ankles. That bone-deep tiredness that no amount of alone time seems to touch. If you’re wondering why…
I don’t know how do I explain this but I love this part of the year where new year is around the corner and everything is the past. There’s this little pocket of time where you can actually breathe and think about what you want the next year to feel like. Early days of a…
Recovery milestones are bright spots along the path to overcoming addiction and mental health struggles. Each one is a clear sign of hard-earned progress, no matter how small or quiet that step might seem. Acknowledging these moments is powerful because it shows that change is happening. Milestones can take many forms, from marking another sober…
Like many of you, I dealt with the usual teenage acne during my high school years. You know, the typical breakouts during exam stress, monthly periods, or before important events. But then things got better, and throughout my early twenties, my skin was relatively clear. I thought I had finally outgrown the acne phase of…
