Rec | INITIATING CHANGE

🧮

Take a different route home from work. Try a new drink. Pick up that book you bought for yourself but never read. See what it feels like to not procrastinate. Use the dish washer instead of hand washing. Call an old friend. Call your grandparents. Write a poem. Buy new socks. Live a little more.

Everything can be different

When i say everything can be different i mean it ! changing your bed‘s position can give you a sense of difference in your day to day life. So let’s go slowly and expand that with little resources : Home : -Changing your room from bed position to where the desk is - maybe even change the whole room with the other siblings/parents. -As an outfit repeater i always try to put a piece with a different one just to be able to create a new out. -Art is your friend, try to sketch, colorbooks, craft, crochet, etc… - Journaling with prompts, use tiktok and youtube to get prompts and start writing as much as you like - discover the internet, start searching new niche websites as a hobby, searching by itself is a hobby, use reddit to discover to world. - try new recipes with the ingredients you already have in the kitchen. - pinterest mood boards - reading books - get into movies, analyse the movie, rhe colorgrade, the technique etc.. - discover new music Outside : - try new roads - discover your city parks - register in a library - walk by the beach even if it’s cold - collect plants (either by taking pictures for a digital board or a physical one in your journal book) - watch the sunset with music on - try new drinks in your local coffeeshop - window shopping (you dont have money so what ? Just look at the items even try them, you like it ? Thats a motivation point to be able to save up for it for the next sale season etc..) - if you work or use your laptop to study, use the internet to make it more fun ( ex : search how you can navigate your mail box without using your mouse - search how you can write a whole email without touching the mouse - make your tables colorful - try a new style of writing - etc …) - after work/school, dont go straight home, walk a bit, discover anything “new” around you. - before school/work, try to wake up earlier, get pretty for yourself, skin care routine, shower a bit longer, make your fav breakfast, walk slow to ur destination.. - ask around if u can do any volunteer work in your city. - join a book club - join a craft club

taking up new hobbies

honestly try anything and everything! nothing exists but the present moment. when i want to switch up my day, i’ll read a new book, learn a new recipe, even watching a show feels more productive than doomscrolling on my phone. the easiest way for me to find something to do is looking around my house and using any object i find, or even cleaning. going on walks! oooh if you live in a city, nothing is better than a walk

ACT ON YOUR IMPULSES

I realized I started feeling really disconnected from myself when everything became routine and I was trying to do only what needed to be done. It's the little things that really help you come back to yourself. When it's 10 pm and you want a cherry soda, just go for a little walk and get one. That movie you wanted to see but don't know who to go with, just go yourself. That new place you wanna try. The little stickers that you haven't used yet. Just realizing what you like and what brings you joy and even what doesn't. Also when I started feeling this way I pulled up some random internet list of 365 questions to ask yourself or journal about and now I try to write a couple lines to a question when I'm waiting on the kettle to boil or on the bus or something. The direction of having questions to reflect on helps me. Sometimes I end up on a tangent but it still helps me pull together memories and ideas.
