slow down and appreciate the small things 𐅛 🫐🐌🌷

Want to know a weird indulgent habit that I do that has significantly improved my grades, mental health, and work performance?

I started getting up earlier and having slow mornings. I get up, make my bed, brush my teeth, get ready for the day, and then I'm left with about an hour all for myself with no stress or worries. I can sit and have my coffee with sweetened condensed milk while my ferret runs around and I can read while listening to my fishtank. I can go to a coffee shop if I please or catch up on chores. Get an episode of a show in. Water my plants. Whatever I want to do. This hour or so is mine. It let's me just relax and exist in between the hustle and bustle of everything.

I usually do yoga and meditate and then make some coffee and just chill. Yall have no clue how amazing this small change has been for me. I feel better and tend to actually eat in the mornings (I am one of those who can't eat when busy or stressed), I look forward to my mornings, I've gotten better at going to bed at a reasonable hour, and I'm just happier overall.

This has also made my grades go up, as I usually wind up leaving a bit earlier than I need to and so I sit on campus and study before my classes. Feeling better also makes the classes more enjoyable, as I'm not a walking heap of misery and dread anymore.

It takes discipline and getting used to and I do have an advantage because I am a morning person and have always gotten up early, but it's just nice to have a little me time after getting ready and before having to actually do anything.

Tl;dr: give yourself an hour between getting ready and actually leaving to have a slow time for whatever you wish and after a month just watch how it changes your life.

When your mind feels heavy, step out into nature. The world goes quiet. Worries become infinitesimally small.
