09•08•2019 - Rainy Day Ft. Linguistics And My Neighbour’s Shitty Backyard 🌦

When you are balancing classes, homework, extracurriculars, and a full/part time job, it can be hard to find the necessary time to look after yourself. The important thing is to make good use of the small chances you get during the day! I’ve broken it up into time chunks, to make it easier.

Two Minutes

Brush your teeth/hair etc

Wash your face, or splash cold water on it

Drink a glass of water

Stretch! (especially if you've been sitting down for awhile)

Five Minutes

Take the stairs!

Jumping jacks/squats (I do them all the time behind the counter at work!)

Take a break and eat a piece of fruit

Ten Minutes

Walk instead of bussing

Reapply sunscreen if needed

Take a power nap if you need one

Do a short meditation

Twenty Minutes

Find a short yoga routine on youtube

Go for a quick run

Take a longer nap

Write in a journal/ Notebook if that's your thing

Thirty Minutes

Workout

Do a full yoga routine

Run/walk around your block a few times

Take the time to prepare a special, healthy snack for yourself!

One Hour or More

Workout weights or cardio

Tidy your room/ office space

Catch up on other duties (to relieve stress)

Prepare a meal and make enough for a lunch the next day

As its summer in half of the world, I’d like to remind my friends in the northern hemisphere that health in the heat means drinking cold liquids to stay hydrated, wearing sunscreen to prevent burns and skin damage, and spending time in the shade throughout the day! 

Take Care of Yourselves! 

new year, new journal 📔

lately ive been feeling under the clouds. don’t feel motivated to do anything nor have the drive to move forward. however, just journaling and tearing random pages from my fav books makes me feel a bit productive. what do u think about this spread? I personally fell in love with it, especially the watercolor background.

not me scrambling to finish my essays:"

It snowed in London over the weekend, which could only mean a long frosty walk followed by masala hot chocolate with vegan cream and marshmallows. Maybe I like winter a little after all 🕯✨

4/100 - big exam tomorrow! wish me luck!! • 100 days of productivity

Obsessed with the passing of time?? I present to you: "studying with a candle always on"

3.12.2020 gloomy days

studying without the struggle to feel good enough. studying with interest and people to talk to when you don’t understand something. people who get lost in those topics with you over a drink or dinner in the evening, in a cozy bar after a day full of productive hours. walks and bycicle rides in the nights and in the early mornings because you spent the night in some shady apartment or club. motivation because you’re all in this together. happiness because it’s worth it. because you’re not alone.
