#Sustainable routine

Build yourself a sustainable routine for 2024

you don’t have to schedule all your habits for everyday. Some habits can be for twice a week or thrice a week. If you can’t read 10 pages everyday, don’t fret. Try to read 1 chapter a week. Then slowly progress to 2.

do not be intimidated by accounts like mine. I post a lot of tips but I follow only the ones I know work for me, even if those tips are great. I share a lot so that different people can make use of them. Just because tip A works better for me than tip B, doesn’t mean that tip B is useless. Someone else could find B more useful than A.

How do you know you’re building a sustainable routine?

here are some indicators:

⭐️ the habits are “portable” for the most part - you do not need to be in specific places to execute them (you can read anywhere, you can workout in any hotel, etc).

⭐️ you’re able to follow all your habits at least 80% of the time in a month. Which means out of 30 days, for 24 days you are able to follow your habits. ⭐️ they don’t stress you out. It doesn’t make sense to procrastinate over your habits. The point of the habits is to reduce procrastination and improve yourself. If you’re stressing over it, go back to square one and start small.

⭐️ you are able to see that you’re improving. Maybe you’re feeling more confident, self assured and resilient. Whatever your end goal, it is important to understand that you won’t go from being, for example, under confident to confident overnight. It will happen gradually. Noticing your progress and complimenting yourself for the gradual change is important because then you’re validating yourself for the healthy changes you make. When you validate yourself as opposed to someone else validating you, you are acknowledging the hard work you have put in- this increases your motivation to do even better and to stay disciplined.

⭐️ over time, the habits come to you naturally. Let’s say meditating. You become so used to meditating that not doing it is like not brushing your teeth in the morning. It becomes a part of you and you accept and embrace it instead of dreading it.

⭐️ yes, you will have tough days. You will have days where you want to give up. It is important to schedule at least 2 mental health days a month for yourself where you can choose to do absolutely nothing and just relax. You are human, not a machine. Sometimes you need to push through those tough days and get things done anyway. There is a balance between resting and working hard.

⭐️ you eventually do not feel guilt or shame for prioritising yourself and your routine first. This is the most important indicator. You do not put any boy, friend, anyone (unless it’s an emergency of course) above you. You know you are your most important person.

Self-care routines don’t need to be complicated or expensive to make a real impact. Many people are reconnecting with simple, time-tested practices that focus on balance, prevention, and overall wellness. These methods are deeply rooted in traditional oriental medicine.

i feel like we’ve seen the start of jeremy’s long awaited crash out now. we’ve seen the start of his unsustainable habits — with jean explicitly thinking that there’s no way jeremy can keep up his routine the way he’s going, “he would surely be a ghost by the time championships started.”

jeremy’s family is broken, he’s dealing with a lot of grief and emotional hurt that he basically just pushes down (not unlike the way jean copes), he’s got an insane amount of responsibilities — between being the trojan’s captain, trying to help his friends with losing their home, trying to be there for jean, as well as study for his law exams, not even detailing the requirements of exy practices. in tgr we can see how he survives it all, relying on copious amounts of coffee to get through and still jeremy is passing out pretty much every and any moment he has the chance to rest.

i expect in tsc3 we’ll see the consequences of this come up finally—jeremy’s long due breakdown when the pressure understandably gets to be too much. i’m interested to see how it plays out, how jeremy and jean can help each other. what i do know for sure is that whatever happens next, their little found family will be there for each other through it all.

Sustainable Health Routine for a Better Future

Greetings, fellow readers and activists! Today I want to briefly discuss the benefits of adopting a sustainable strategy for maintaining our health. This is beneficial for the environment as well as for our personal health. I have personal experience of how adopting sustainable practices and healthy habits will enhance our physical and mental well-being while also lowering our carbon impact. We have a chance to create real change by eating a plant-based diet, choosing mindful habits, incorporating eco-practices like bicycling instead of driving and using reusable products. Join on this journey as we explore how sustainability and wellness go hand in hand to create an Earth and improve our quality of life.

We have the power to make a difference in both our own health and the environment by supporting the consumption of plant-based meals and promoting sustainable lifestyle practices. So many studies have demonstrated that a poor diet can significantly increase the risk of developing respiratory illnesses, cardiac issues and also cancer when combined with environmental issues like air pollution and water contamination. As a result it is crucial to have access to clean water, sufficient sanitation accessbility and healthcare services in order to keep our overall health good. Furthermore, by including sustainable practices into our exercise routines like choosing environmentally friendly workout attire or considering alternatives to driving which can be walking or bicycling, we not only encourage physical fitness but also actively minimise harmful gases released into the environment. My own personal experience has shown significant changes when using mindfulness methods like meditation to reduce stress levels and establishing sustainable practices in everyday life choices. Feeling less fatigue and improved overall mental and physical health were the results of higher energy levels gained by switching to plant-based eating habits combined with sustainable decisions. By putting a healthy lifestyle first, we can achieve happiness, productivity and also contribute to a healthier planet.

This is the real fantastic news. We can reduce these worries while also enhancing our general wellbeing by following a clear health routine. By choosing to walk or bike instead of use a car, we are reducing the harmful emissions that contribute to air pollution which is a significant cause of the wide range of health problems listed earlier. Air pollution, water contamination and other environmental issues are very closely linked to respiratory illnesses, heart illnesses and also cancer. Global health is significantly impacted by the effects of climate change, which increases disease transmission, air pollution and make it more difficult to get clean water. To reduce pollution we must be aware of the importance of what we do to the environment. By addressing concerns such as climate change and its effects on disease transmission, air pollution and accessibility to clean water, sustainability practices play a crucial role here by enhancing global health. Choosing sustainable practices like cutting back on meat consumption and choosing eco-friendly forms of transportation like cycling can help sustain a clean environment that protects public health. It is high time for us to prioritise sustainable living by putting in action initiatives that promote a healthier world.

Making positive changes involves switching to environmentally friendly exercise equipment and sustainable gym practices. This not only reduces carbon footprints but also reduces resource usage and promotes healthier environments. Following sustainable practises goes beyond maintaining a person's physical health. It has the capacity to enhance our mental wellness as well. Our general state of mind can be greatly improved by engaging with nature, practising mindfulness, and implementing eco-friendly habits. By creating a closer connection with not just ourselves but with others and the world around us, religion and spirituality plays a vital role in helping us to move towards sustainability. True wellness comes from choosing a holistic approach that values both individual well-being and the sustainability of the planet we live in. We can successfully lower stress levels while also encouraging better mental well-being through mindful activities like meditation and choosing sustainable lifestyle choices, all while coexisting peacefully with our surroundings.

Through my personal journey, I have personally been a witness to the incredible advantages of maintaining a sustainable approach to overall well-being. By sticking to a balanced nutritional plan, choosing environmentally-friendly practices and nurturing my spirituality, I have not only achieved personal success and sustained a healthy weight but also made significant contributions towards promoting a sustainable future. As someone who has wholeheartedly enjoyed this transformative voyage by diligently attending the gym regularly over the course of the past year while adopting mindful eating patterns, I am absolutely thrilled for the remarkable transformations! Apart from achieving goals such as shedding kilos and enhancing physical appearance (cue heightened confidence), my commitment has played an crucial role in encouraging advancements pertaining to sustainable progress. It is important to acknowledge that little steps and gradual endeavors hold immeasurable importance when they are all diligently together! Since starting my gym routine approximately one year ago coupled with sticking to a nourishing diet rich in protein alongside cultivation of mindfulness and spiritual practices, I have experienced tremendous accomplishment with respect to weight loss maintenance, overall fitness maintenance whilst concurrently contributing positively towards endorsing sustainability on both local and global scales.

In conclusion, it is critical that we take advantage of this opportunity as a whole and make important decisions that will improve both our physical health and the health of our world as a whole. Multiple studies offer solid evidence demonstrating the connection between sustainable practices and better health outcomes, including decreased disease risks and longer lifespans. We shouldn't be intimidated by making sustainable changes in our daily lives because by implementing small changes like having a plant-based diet, walking or biking instead of driving, eco-friendly and sustainable workout clothes and gear, sustainable gym practices, meditation and religion, we can actually have a big influence. Let's promote eco-friendly practices and raise awareness in our communities as a team to nurture the earth and ourselves. Remember, every small step counts. Stay inspired, stay healthy, and stay sustainable as we embark on this transformative journey together!

EDIT: I do not interpret "just managing" as "just suffering, just enduring, curling into a fetal position and waiting for it to be over." Managing is an active process.

So I'm using this post as a platform to make the reminder that "the power of the people is greater than the people in power," and we all are cordially invited to:

Take good care of ourselves. Mental, physical, emotional health. Hydrate. Move if we can, get outside if we can.

Keep up a routine. Remember quarantine and we all had to find a routine? This is the same.

Be intentional in our news consumption. Let's not stick our heads in the sand but let's not doomscroll either. Get an RSS aggregator. Subscribe to WTF Just Happened Today, Yoour Local Epidemiologist, Fix The News (for some inspiring hopeful news!). We'll check our feeds a few times a week, but no more than once a day.

Connect with friends and loved ones. Remind ourselves that while SOME people are horrible, for the most part people are awesome... if complicated. Share our fears but also our hopes. Eat together.

Now that we're keeping healthy, safe, sane, and hopeful... now we also fight. Quietly if we prefer, loudly if we prefer. But sustainably. I hate that I had to live through three rounds of this nonsense where a few people use half of us as tools to fuck over ALL of us, but here we are again. So let us take just one moment every week or so to...

Use 5calls to keep blowing up our reps phones. Tell them to either break ranks with the Orange Administration, or to stand up louder than just matching outfits and signs. Or to THANK them for standing up.

Use Vote411 to find elections before the midterms. A lot of villages, cities, townships etc have local elections that will affect where we live... and more importantly, the people in office there will affect things upwards too.

Use Ballotpedia to know exactly what's on our ballots ahead of time.

Protest, because it actually works.

Use Vote.org to make a plan to vote in the midterms. Make a plan that is immune to voter suppression tactics. Get our documents in order. Reach out to our friends to go to the polls as a group. Plan to livestream our visit, up until the point we have to turn our cameras off.

Make and share memes that promote hope, organizing, solidarity, and/or resistance.

Get involved with an action network like Indivisible, MoveOn, or Working Families Party.

Go to a local town hall meeting. Speak up.

Heck, start our own local activism networks, letter campaigns, call campaigns, or fundraisers with Action Network.

And we will remember our self-care. We will remind ourselves and each other that they want us scattered, focus is how we resist.

It IS coming back. Things ARE going to get worse. The world has become a place where a very few people are pulling levers and pushing buttons that are actively destroying much of what is good about living in a society where people care for each other.

Many others are in shock, sputtering "but can they do that?" MANY many others are waiting for someone to come save us.

But there are those who are actively, loudly, opposing.

And there are more people speaking up, acting up, every day. More people saying it's time to get scrappy. It's time to get into some good trouble. The shock is wearing off.

Yes, it's gonna get worse before it gets better (the long-term damage of the acts of the past momentum of all the damage that has been done will take that long to be felt -- but it WILL get better.

If WE will it.

"calorie" means nothing about the food. it's a unit of energy, it measures the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one liter of water by 1°C. paper can be measured in calories. your tshirt as well. doesn't make it food.

the units to use when considering what to eat are, generally, proteins, carbs and fibers. there are many more nutrients but for the basics, these three are pretty much all you need when you try to figure out what to eat and if it's "healthy" to eat.

donuts? donuts don't have a lot of fibers and proteins. accompany your donus with a protein source (meat for example) and veggies! to add some needed vitamins, you can add a fruit.

only eating broccoli isn't gonna get you far, much like only eating bread. only eating one out of the three isn't enough, you need all three of them.

do get informed on this topic to make informed choices for your health. in general, avoid anything that only talks of calories, these things could be telling you to eat paper and you'd get the same result.

and do remember your body needs energy for everything it does! even sleep! even sitting! your heart still beats, your brain still thinks, your lungs still breath!

if you're always sleepy / tired, you might not be eating enough ! when my sister started her teaching job, she ended up needing a nap every time she came home at the end of her day. she thought she was sick, her doctor was lost. and then she watched a documentary and in it, there were mentions of how tired and sleepy under nourished people can be and it clicked. she doubled her portions and didn't need a nap anymore. mind you she wasn't super thin nor big, she was like average weight, so her doc didn't think of that.

diet talk is so inexpressibly nonsensical the instant you know anything about "the human body" or "nutrition" or if you think about it for three seconds
