Reset days

Every since I have moved I have felt messy headed. I am just now figuring out my routine and trying to get my life in order. It’s always a process when you move and I am just glad to finally be settling.

The last couple days I have been able to slow down. I have been off work and the weather has been cloudy, chilly and rainy. On these days, I’m able to really reset and get my mind in order before the work week.

When your body and mind need rest, it’s important to give it to them. Otherwise, it will catch up with you. Your body will let you know and you’ll crash. I’m enjoying the time I have to stay inside and read my book.

The last couple days have been good. I have been focusing on my healing journey. Using the time I have to read and get things done; whether that be around the house or just self care.

Using my time wisely had been important to me. I want to use the time I have filling my head and heart with the things that glorify God.. things that are good for me.

Scrolling on social media, laying in bed longer (all day) and isolating myself is NOT good for me. I notice my mental health declines when I do those things and I am working on figuring out what things ARE good for me.

Some current things (the list is growing by the day): Reading, writing, doing chores, making my bed, getting up when my alarm goes off, making sure I eat and staying active.

If I keep myself busy, I don’t allow my mind to go to a dark place.

This is your sign to look at the things around you. Things that you’re doing in your life and ask yourself “Are these things good for me?” – if the answer is “No”, cut them out. Take the time to adjust your routine, add things that make you happy and fill you with joy. Things that make you feel confident and self-full.

You got this.
