Do You Need More Self-Compassion?
Both recent and ongoing events have taken a massive toll on so many of us. More people than ever before had their stability and what they thought mattered crumble down. A huge mental audit took place. What they thought mattered , no longer mattered. The things that truly mattered came to the forfront and on FULL FOCUS.

why you should wash your hair with beer and your teeth with baking soda?
Did you know that lemon juice can be a great alternative to deodorant? What can be used to treat burns with tea? That coffee is an excellent fertilizer for indoor plants? Amazing, right? It turns out that conventional products are capable of more than we expected from them.

Drop the Hustle
As a freelance writer, there's nothing that fills me with panic quite like a sudden quiet period or the idea of passing up work. Since the start of the pandemic, I have been, with the exception of the first three months, busier than ever. While the rest of the world was furloughed or otherwise adjusting to enforced quiet and solitude in their non-working hours, I found my working week creeping from 30 hours to 40 until it peaked at roughly 65 to 70 hours a week where it stayed for roughly 2 months.

What is RED-S?
As a Registered Dietitian working primarily with women and women’s health concerns, I see a great deal of active individuals! Working with active women, it’s important to be aware of health concerns that can impact their athletic performance, along with their overall health. When we consider the culture that women (and all other folks!) live in – the expectation to be small, toned but not muscular, strong but not strong-willed, and quiet about their accomplishments – it’s not hard to imagine that they are missed… some providers aren’t even thinking about them!

How to Stop Negative Self-Talk?
We’ve all heard that voice in our heads — the one which will ruminate on mistakes or replay cringe-worthy events. Sometimes, it is often downright rude or unkind, with harsh criticism and judgments about our work, appearance, or personality. Our mental chatter is what psychologists call self-talk.

7 Ways to Make Mornings Effective
1. Move Your Body Get moving first thing in the morning to immediately boost your energy. The later you push off exercising, the less likely it’s going to happen as your day unfolds. Even if you do some light stretching or yoga, it helps your circulation and heart rate to get going.

Why Spending Time Alone is Most Important?
Spending time alone otherwise termed as solitude has both mental and physical benefits. We are living in a fast-paced world, where attention is the scariest commodity. Everyone needs your attention, from managers, friends, relatives, spouses to hundreds of commercials you see every day in and out. Solitude is defined as a subjective state in which your mind is free from input from other minds. It is subjective and it is not a requirement for attaining a state of solitude. You can enjoy solitude on a crowded bus or in a coffee shop. Solitude requires you to isolate yourself from the inputs of other people and focus instead on your own thoughts and experiences, it doesn’t matter wherever you happen to be.
