When’s the last time you truly relaxed? Or is the word “relax” not even in your vocabulary?
Despite fewer in-person gatherings and obligations these days, you may still have a lot on your plate and rarely take time to kick up your feet and do a whole lotta nada. You may even feel like it’s been so long since you relaxed, you’ve forgotten how.
Not good.
Do you ever find yourself being overly critical or beating yourself up? We all have a voice inside telling us we’re good, bad, or in the right or wrong, and with fewer distractions these days, many of us are noticing this “Inner Critic” coming in even louder than usual.
The truth is, having an inner critic is normal — so don’t feel bad or be hard on yourself about it!
Do you wake up refreshed and ready to take on the day? Or does your morning routine feel more like something you schlep through until you take that first sip of heavenly coffee?
We’ve all heard mornings set the stage for the rest of the day, and today, we’re sharing the best way we know how to set yourself up for a wonderful day. (And you don’t have to get out of bed even a minute earlier!)
We have a hunch: You’ve been spending a lot of time with your partner the past months (emphasis on a lot).
At first, having all that time together might have been fun. All of a sudden you can take a lunch with your partner or go on a midday walk. But chances are, the rush of spending more hours around your best friend wore off long ago!
Have you felt a little more agitated than usual?
Over the past year, most of us have had some extra time for self-reflection (especially if you’ve had to spend weeks in quarantine!).
On the one hand, all the extra time can be a good thing — it allows you to narrow down your passions and hone in on what really brings you joy and meaning.
