Here’s a puppy pic to cheer you up if social distancing is as hard for you as it is for me. We got this!!!
sorry for the peace sign, I grew up on MySpace and it’s instinctual ✌🏼
SEMI-LONG POST WARNING, BUT PLEASE READ!!! 💞 These pictures were taken almost 3 years ago, but I'll never be able to look at them and not remember how overwhelmed with anxiety + sadness I was. It's easy to mask mental pain, especially when it feels like the world around us is spinning off its axis. I wanted to use today to remind you that while physical health is SO important right now with the current pandemic, YOUR MENTAL HEALTH IS STILL IMPORTANT TOO. Social distancing is key right now, but I know firsthand that it's also dangerous for those of us that easily lose ourselves in our own minds and detach from reality without people around to anchor us down. So if you struggle with anxiety, depression — anything! — take care of your mind. Facetime loved ones, take a walk, meditate, but most importantly: don’t convince yourself your mental health doesn’t matter right now because it DOES and it ALWAYS will. And if you're fortunate to not struggle with mental health, take this as a reminder to check-in with your friends that you know do. Just because we have to be distanced physically doesn't mean we need to be emotionally + spiritually. Take care of yourself, take care of others, and take care of your mind.
One of the things I’m super nerdy is about is knowing what’s going on inside my body — good or bad, I want to know!!! I’ve been struggling with being able to change my body composition, so I turned to @everlywell for a metabolism test to make sure everything is a-okay in that department. Sometimes it’s nice to be able to take a test in the comfort of your own home and just pop it in the mail when you’re done 🥳 You can browse all the at-home kits EverlyWell has to offer by visiting the link my bio + save 12% on your order with code “2020” 💫 Make this year your year of health!!!
