5 Ways to Spoil Yourself Before Work

#StressManagement #SelfCare #SelfNurturing #Wellness #WellnessDimensions #WellnessHacks #MorningRoutines #MorningRoutineChallenge Reflecting on my time working from home during March 2020, my morning routine was pretty much null and void. I am embarrassed to admit, it consisted of me waking up, rolling out of bed, and grabbing my laptop and phone, and diving straight into work. I might eat. I might not eat. My morning hygiene routine was, let's just say, embarrassingly lacklu

8 Things That Could Help with Speeding Up Metabolism

#StressManagement #SelfCare #SelfNurturing #Wellness #WellnessDimensions #WellnessWheel #PhysicalWellness #Metabolism #MetabolismBoost I remember the glory days of being able to eat what I wanted when I wanted. Others around me would complain that if they looked at food, they would gain weight. Not me. I could eat whole medium pizzas; ingest several sodas, teas, juices; and cookies and cakes galore and I remained the same sleek size. I recall being told that with my height an

7 Tweaks to Your Habits for Better Sleep

#StressManagement #SelfCare #SelfNurturing #Wellness #Sleep "I need a nap." I find myself uttering this phrase throughout my workday more than any other phrase; however, I do believe, "I don't get paid enough," is a close second. I admit that like most other people, I sometimes fall victim to the demands of society's fast paced, do more, mentality. My sleep schedule is often one of the first things to go. I work and work until my brain cannot handle anymore. Then I veg out in

6 Ways to Reduce Being Hijacked By Your Own Emotions

#StressManagement #SelfCare #SelfNurturing #Wellness #ManagingEmotions #Balance As surely as we all live, we are all going to encounter a situation that will challenge our ability to regulate our emotions. Some of us will experience such emotional overwhelm that our thinking shuts down completely. Whereas others of us will turn off the emotions and try to reason our way through situations; thinking if we can avoid the emotions, we can avoid the pain. There isn't anything inhe

Identify Your 7 Good Qualities

#StressManagement #SelfCare #SelfNurturing #Wellness #SocialWellness #WellnessDimensions #WellnessWheel #SelfEsteem #GoodQualities I think I took the concept of being humble a little too far. In my Christian upbringing, I can hear my great-aunt or even my grandmother cautioning me on the dangers of being prideful. Afterall, the Devil was prideful and look how he fell. Messages such as these led to a young adult me who really had no working definition of who she was other tha

Love On The Brain

#StressManagement #SelfCare #SelfNurturing #Wellness #ACE #LoveOnTheBrain #BrainLove #AttachmentStyles When exploring a title for today's topic, the lyrics to Rihanna's "Love on the Brain" popped into my head. If you have ever had the pleasure of listening to that song, you will find it to be a beautifully performed yet haunting description of a dysfunctional love story. If we want to call it love. It mostly sounds one-sided. Whoever the love interest is, the songstress croon

#StressManagement #SelfCare #SelfNurturing #Wellness #InnerCritic #SilenceTheCritic #StoryTime I survived Friday the 13th! Yes. Normally, I am not particularly superstitious that bad things happen on Friday 13th. All in all, my day started out a good one. I woke up in a good mood. Had a pleasant day at work. Even caught some synchronicities. I caught the number 2727 twice (once on a phone number and then later on a car tag less than 10 minutes later). I caught 111 on my fuel

The word "spiritual" generally sets off alarm bells with people. In U.S. society we are taught to avoid topics such as religion and politics like the plague.
