I started doing morning Yoga a couple years ago and it changed my life. I use an app called Downward Dog. i usually wake up with monkeys in my head — so having to move in order align myself helps. I usually meditate after the session and then go downstairs to make myself some coffee. Even when I travel, I tend to keep the same rhythm. It grounds me.

This feels a little obvious/somewhat cheesy but a daily meditation really helped me a lot. My girlfriend and I did the Deepak Chopra 21 Days of Abundance meditations that are free on YouTube, sitting outside and doing a little thoughtful guided time felt really good. It also forced us to sit outside and notice the birds/clouds/nature sounds/etc and that was a wonderful element too!

Start with doing yoga as a moving meditation. Yin Yoga or Yoga Nidra might be a very soft introduction to bring your mind & body into a meditative state. Lie down at the end, take your time and start appreciating Shavasana.
Start feeling every body part at once by simply putting all your mental energy & thoughts into a specific area of your body. Start with your feet, move on to your knees, your stomach, chest, arms, fingers. End with your head. Start to feel thoughts as clouds passing by. After some tries you find your mind empty, released & at ease.
Every time is different. Some times it will feel very easy, on some days you won’t feel it working at all - But still you stopped 5 minutes from doing whatsoever, switched off your brain for a bit. It will help you feel calm on the long run 💎

I started reading this book called Seeking The Heart of Wisdom which is about meditation and how to bring meditating into your every day life. It’s really helped me calm tf down! Every morning I take a few minutes just think set my intentions for the day, or goals for the week or month or even the year! Helps me stay grounded. highly recommend!!

Was tired of being a consumer so I joined a painting group on Mondays. don’t know how it’ll go and what I’ll do. But I’m willing to take the journey. Should I share my paintings on here?

I started with Breathless (1960). Was it supposed to be so funny? I laughed more than I probably should've considering the beginning and the end. C'est la vie.

I have been trying to work with acrylic guache. it’s a weird type of paint that feels like watercolour, but dries super fast? Don’t love it — but we create regardless
