shower

usually when i feel this way it’s because i haven’t showered in a while. that usually makes me feel 50% better. manually taking care of yourself in general is gonna set you up to feel better. also, just have grace with yourself. go talk to other people. walk or drive to a place you’ve never been to and just explore. break out of the routine!

personal cheatcodes

figuring out the small things i can do that i know will make me feel at least 5% better has been so helpful to build momentum throughout my day. some of mine: groggy -> coffee, go outside and walk around, or a mini nap lethargic/irritable -> taking a shower and deep breaths, opening a window sad -> get sunlight, stand outside for ten minutes, hug my cat anxious/unable to focus -> writing a brain dump of everything that’s on mind or cbt journaling unable to sleep -> reading a book bored -> create/output something (input(watching/listening to/reading something, scrolling on my phone) vs output(making something, writing my thoughts on something i watched, trying something new)) bloated -> ginger tea, activating pressure points, yoga uninspired -> revisiting something formative, figuring out the unexplored territories in my taste and going into them, looking through my collection of art books

i am self destructive and this is what helps

- ice dives: if you find yourself ruminating or feeling impulsive or anything of that nature, fill a bowl with cold water and ice, take a deep breath, put your face in the water for 30 seconds and repeat until you feel a little calmer. It activates a dive response so all your energy goes into slowing your heart rate - soothe with smell or taste, - not for everyone but I love love love love looooove sauna’s - moving my body in anyway can help - hot yoga, spin, jumping jacks in my living room - alternative rebellion - get a tattoo! Get a piercing a piece of advice I find really helpful too is: don’t move if your next move will make the situation worse
