getting like 10-15 min direct sunlight in your eyes before like 10am...consistently...really helps me regulate when i get in the habit of staying up too late for no reason.

It can be so difficult to do this and sometimes you really have to force yourself but getting direct light exposure for just 10 min in the morning right when you wake up is crazy good for your mood !! This was recommended to me by my doctor and I swear by it

a little bit of sunshine in the morning keeps your circadian rhythm regular & a good read in the AM will wake your brain up :)

ok so we all know about the thing with sunlight right when you wake up but when it’s cold and you don’t want to go outside that’s fine…just put your face as close to the window as possible for a few minutes. The circadian rhythm and such

i almost always have "avoid highways" turned on when using google maps so i can see whats goin' on in the city. highways are soulless and i avoid i them as much as i can.
if you've got the time, it's best way to see a sight you might've never seen otherwise. i've found lots of good signs, art, and restaurants this way. makes having to drive somewhere a little more interesting because heck....life's about the journey. ❤️

always thought i had to wait for my life to be amazing to start writing it down...turns out it was already pretty cool and i regret all the stuff i can't remember anymore. also just a helpful mental practice to get your thoughts out of your brain and on some paper so you don't have to worry about holding them all in there. spending extra time thinking about positive moments in your life is also a good way to help your brain default to positive thinking more often, like building a muscle. i make it fun by cutting and pasting a bunch of pictures and stuff so it feels like a craft instead of a chore, otherwise i won't really do it.

i have a fear of reaching out or making plans because i am afraid of bothering people (insane i know) and being rejected :') however i typically vocalize this explicitly to people i care about so they don't feel like i hate them and i am trying hard to practice initiating stuff (exposure therapy). the times i have initiated plans or organized a function have gone rly well though so...i dont know. its hard for me to get over. i think most people are also just thinking about themselves....as the previous reply said. i want to be an initiator really bad.
