Wellness pause

When was the last time you had some water? Something to eat?

Take a moment to look away from your screen. Look out a window, relax those eye muscles.

Brushed your teeth today? Is it time to floss?

Braces folks: Do you have rubber bands in?

Do a bit of a stretch, get out of that slouched state. If you can, lift your arms above your head a bit. Give your back a good stretch. Get up, do some steps in the same spot.

Don’t look for a reaction out of me because I don’t got it for nobody. When I say I’m not dealing with no negative energy, I meant exactly that.

Developing a Positive Mental Attitude

1. Remind yourself that you are NOT your feelings.

2. Don’t sweat the small stuff; choose to focus on what matters. Ignore or overlook the petty things, and grievances.

3. Feel the power as you learn to take control of your reactions. You’re not just a puppet, where someone pulls your strings.

4. Don’t agree with other peoples’ opinions of your value, or the way they rate your actions, your motives or achievements. Don’t let them be your judge, or the one who sets your worth.

5. Don’t compare yourself to others as we’re all different and unique. Set yourself some goals to go for, and celebrate when you succeed.

6. Accept that life’s a journey, and we grow and change with time. We don’t start off being perfect – so expect to get things wrong.

7. Love yourself completely and unconditionally. You’re a worthwhile individual – and you’ll get there in the end.

🌹 a rose, for everyone who’s sad today. you are loved.

take me back to the days where i sleep without overthinking.

Being too nice will always put you in drama and bullshit. Don’t allow people to abuse your kindness and infest you with indirect unnecessary drama.

Don’t give folks too much credit or invest more into them than what they are giving you just because you feel like they are tolerating you and you’re still overlooking shit you should’ve used as reasons to detach and cut them off. Its ok to be distant, distrustful, suspicious (aware), detached, mean and firm in order to survive. Just gotta balance it out.

I’m good luv, go disappoint somebody else.

I need better thoughts, I need better vibes..

#VALENTINE’S DAY MOOD

lately i haven’t felt very okay, but that’s also okay. even though there are really good things in my life that doesn’t guarantee that all the negative emotions will disappear. they coexist. just learning how to handle them coexisting.

being the bigger person doesn’t mean having to accept every apology just for the sake of keeping the peace. being the bigger person doesn’t mean taking abuse as a compromise. continue to stick up for yourself.

try not to waste your energy on things that no longer benefit your health and happiness even if they did in the past
