_, Academic Weapon Challenge Day 1 ˎˊ-
|| Sleep: Had my alarm set for 8, woke up just before that (somehow) but I had a nightmare and awoke somewhat stressed because of it so I let myself sleep in. I should have done it though without extending my alarm every 20 or so minutes until 1 ½ hrs passed..
|| Routine: Nothing yet, I'll plan this out better tomorrow but I'm thinking of having something for the morning like:
don't move alarm — get up immediately
do an exercise
drink a glass of water
read for a bit
|| Deep focus: (I need to do a lot better on this one..) I studied Russian for about 16 mins today (colours)
|| Body: I walked my dog for about 15 mins I belive it was? I need to find a good path to walk or even an area to run around with my dogs on but I've just been so anxious of getting out of the house since moving, nevermind the fact that the path I'm probably gonna find will take me past a few neighbourhoods (there's just something about walking closely past houses, especially ones not in my neighbourhood, that gives me so much anxiety). I also hope I'll be able to go back to doing pushups soon, I haven't been able to for a while because my wrist has been hurting so much..
|| Mind: I read a bit of The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress by Robert A. Heinlein. I've gotta finish it soon as well as Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn as I've been reading them since the start of July and barely read half of each.
(I'm late, I know, forgive me, goodnight!) // 🍊
Note: I'm really excited for this challenge! I think it'll be great for me and I'm hoping it will get me out of this depressive slump quickly! Also, for my 'mind' section, I'll note down any books I read (fiction, non-fiction or academic) as well as any mind exercises I do, such as sudoku puzzles, word games etc.

_, Academic Weapon Challenge Day 5 ˎˊ-
|| Sleep: Got 7/just over 7 hours of sleep. Took me a good while to fall asleep.
|| Routine: Once again I was prepared to get up right after the alarm rang but I still managed to sleep in for an hour and only get out of bed at 10. I did do 5 pushups though and had a sip of water not long after.
|| Deep focus: I made a few more physics notes.
|| Body: 5 pushups in the morning and I walked one of my dogs for 33mins.
|| Mind: Watched an online essay and breakdown of 'When the Wind Blows' ☢️ on youtube (it's so tragic... I highly reccomend) and I started a colour study on a random page.
I normally wouldn't put these under the 'mind' section but I gave the videos and the drawing my attention rather than also scrolling on my phone (whuch I stopped a few mins into of the video) and these activities also just calmed me.
This is it so far, and the star is quite deformed 😵💫 but I think it's looking pretty good. I'm looking to do more studies like this to fill the rest of the page with. // 🍊

i have been struggling with my anxiety more than usual, and there are days where i just wake up anxious. . . do you have any tips on how to help with that? i’d really appreciate it! 🫶🏻✨
Hi angel, I have dealt with and sometimes still deal with a lot of anxiety, so I am going to give you tips and advice that I have learned and work for me. Please remember I am not a mental health professional.
Waking up with anxiety is typically associated with high cortisol levels (stress hormone) which could be do to life stress, bad sleep, substance issues, physical issues or other mental health disorders, to name a few.
You can start incorporating new habits to help reduce your anxiety.
Exercising regularly: Exercise helps alleviate a high anxiety level, by diverting your attention from what’s making you anxious, Activating executive functions in the brain, Decreasing muscle tension, Altering brain chemistry, Regular exercise builds up resources in the body that help increase resilience to erratic emotions. Exercise actually changes your brain chemistry by increasing the availability of neuro chemicals that work against anxiety.
Meditation and breathing exercises: There are different ways to do meditation, and they can help with feeling anxious. Even if you just spend five minutes each day meditating or doing deep breaths, it can make you feel better. Try meditating every morning prior to tackling your day.
Change your diet: The things we eat and drink can affect how we feel and how well our bodies work. Our bodies make chemicals that affect our mood and how we function, and these chemicals are influenced by the food we eat. Some foods can help reduce anxiety are: Brazil nuts, Eggs, Pumpkin seeds, Chamomile (a kind of tea), Yogurt, Turmeric (a spice), Dark chocolate, Fatty fish like mackerel and salmon.
Less TV & phone time before bed: Spending too much time on screens, like phones and TVs, can make your anxiety worse. You should stay away from electronics for 1-2 hours prior to going to sleep. Electronics stimulate the part of your brain that suppresses the production of melatonin, making it difficult to turn off your brain. Additionally, put your phone on DND.
Avoid alcohol and other drugs: Alcohol and caffeine can worsen mood or anxiety. Focus instead on drinking plenty of water. Limit caffeine intake in the afternoon and evening, and consume alcohol in moderation.
Try journaling: If you feel really busy with thoughts when you wake up in the morning, try this before you sleep: write in a notebook for a few minutes. It can help your brain feel calmer and you might sleep better. This might make you feel less anxious when you wake up.
Have a morning routine: If you feel anxious in the morning because things seem messy or you're worried, try making a plan for your mornings. This can help you feel more in charge. You can also make a list of things when you're worried about them. Sometimes, being afraid you'll forget something important makes anxiety worse. But when it's written down your mind can feel better.
Get enough sleep: The worry of feeling anxious in the morning and upcoming stressful decisions might stop you from sleeping or cause them to have trouble sleeping. Sleeping better and getting enough sleep can really help how you feel and your mental health. Make sure you are getting 7-9 hours of sleep.
Have a bed time routine: Having a bedtime routine can make you less anxious because it gives you a plan and things to expect before you sleep. Your bed time routine should include self care activities, this will sooth you and help you feel more confident too. When you do the same things in order every night, your mind and body feel calmer because they know what's coming.
Hope this helps <3
