2020 Goals & Habits *Pandemic Edition*
Since the beginning of this crazy situation (AKA Global Pandemic) I've been trying to stick to a routine (as best as I can.) I figured it would be a good time to get some stability in my life even if things are uncertain for the time being. Those habit are also good to keep in the future so it's a win-win situation. I wrote a list of habits I already integrated in my daily life and some goals I want to achieve eventually. I try to not put pressure on myself because it's ok to struggle and have off days but I feel like it's a good time to try to take better care of myself.
It's probably very cliché and of course everybody's doing it, especially on social media but very have a lot more time on our end. We don't go out very much so why not put yourself first. We all need a little TLC to reduce our stress and to be more gentle to our bodies. I currently work (even if it's usually only once or twice a week) because I'm a childcare worker and my work is considered essential. I take care of emergency worker kids and things are not what you can call “business as usual.” So when I'm at home, it's only fair that I focus on me.
I saw a lot of positive side effects so far. Sometimes it helps my mood, I get more motivated to do chores or things I've put aside for too long. I'm more time efficient, especially in the morning when I work. I don't follow everything to the letter everyday but I always have something to turn to when I get lost or confused. I struggle some days but I know it's ok and I can always try again the next day.
It may seem like an attempt to be relatable but I'm not trying to sell you anything or promote a certain lifestyle. I'm just trying to share some of the things I tried and hopefully it can help some of you guys.
I've listed down bellow some products I like to use so you guys can give them a go. This post is not sponsored and everything is genuinely something I love and use. Enjoy !
