GUEST POST | Let's talk about this little thing called Life. One thing that is known to be true is that life is beautiful but can be hectic. Daily, people are constantly pulled in different directions. From husbands, wives, children, careers, and family members our plates are full! So amid everything, it's important to take care of ourselves. Why should we do that?

Self-care is the practice of taking action to preserve or improve one's health. That's the dictionary's definition but here's a different one. Making sure that you are taking care of your happiness in daily life. After all, you are a priority, right?

Monday, February 15, 2021



The past year has been a difficult one for most of us. Most people were struggling with my mental health and was suffering from sadness and stress. At some point, we stopped taking care of both our mental and physical health.

What we should do is our part. The only thing we have control over is our own life, over ourselves. Here are 8 acts for self-love that are easy in practice but so beneficial for our well-being.

4 Ways To Deal With A Stressful Situation

Thursday, January 14, 2021


Stress is something most of us deal with on a daily basis. It can be caused by different situations, people, or places. Knowing that some of the desires can be caused by stress is one of the reasons we need to find ways to deal with it. It is most unlikely that we are completely stress-free. That doesn't mean that we need to just live with it as it is. There are different ways we can make our lives at least a little bit more relaxing. Once you get a hang of it it becomes easier to notice when you feel stressed out and also how to deal with it.

Dealing With Negative Thoughts & Emotions

Tuesday, April 14, 2020



Now more than ever it is easy to fall in the negative circle of thoughts. Spending so much time indoors in space that sometimes feels like it is getting smaller and smaller as the days pass, it is not so strange to start to feel nervous, anxious and sad. Social media can be such a great way to escape but it can also bring self-doubt and pity (when it seems like you are the only one not making dalgona coffee, banana bread and playing animal crossing). As normal as it is to feel sad, annoyed and anxious once in a while, wouldn't it just be better to feel happy, cheerful and hopeful once again?

Mini Habits That Will Make You Fall In Love With Your Daily Life

Thursday, April 2, 2020





The biggest changes in your life don't need to be extra. Sometimes to see that positive change in your everyday life all you need is implementing mini habits. Those are the things that we usually overlook. We might do them once in a while without realizing how much benefit they would bring to us only if we started doing them more regularly. 

The ones that I am going to write about in this post are super simple and easy to do. Some of them are probably already part of your every day but some are maybe not. There are, of course, a thousand more that you could start doing but I decided to share only these 5.

How To Get Things Done When You Can't Even Start

Thursday, March 19, 2020


Do you feel like you know where you want to go but it's like something is holding you back?

Don't worry, you are not alone! Most of us feel this way and more than you would think. Making that first step as hard or easy as it can be is always a challenge. Our brain is programmed to save us from uncomfortable and dangerous things. Sometimes it is doing so to the things that are actually good for us.

So how to fake your brain into actually making that first step towards something you've been wanting to do but the fear was holding you back. This is something that no one but you can do. That's why in my opinion it is best to ask yourself these questions...

Knitting Is A Perfect Self-Care Act You Need To Try

Tuesday, January 14, 2020


Have you ever tried knitting? 

Nowadays there is this assumption that knitting is only for old ladies. When you mention knitting to someone they first imagine a grandma in her rocking chair, knitting scarf for their grandkids with a cat near purring. While knitting is usually more popular around a certain age number that doesn't mean that it is only reserved for them. There is a lot of young people who love to knit and find it a great act of self-care.
