Consistency is key.

It is hard to focus on my health and mindset every day, but as long as I am trying, that's all that matters. Small wins are still wins.

"Accept who you are in this moment, but acknowledge who you want to become."

Kristen Butler

Daily efforts:

  • Journaling: This gives my thoughts an outlet and my emotions a release.

  • Meditation: This builds my patience and capacity for silence, strengthening my brain and inner peace.

  • Practicing Gratitude: This brings appreciation into my life. I give thanks for my many blessings, big and small, throughout the day.

  • Walking: This is scientifically helpful for my mind and body, especially if it's outside. When my mind feels heavy, a walk helps it feel light again.

  • Reflection: This helps me become who I want to be by realizing who I am today. I reflect on things that I've done, feeling an alignment or a lack thereof. Change doesn't need to immediately follow; simply noticing how I feel is a powerful asset.

few-times-a-week efforts:

  • Exercising: This keeps my body active and healthy. After exercising, I am reminded I can do hard things, and my body thanks me.

  • Stretching: Flexibility is important if I want to sustain easy movement long into my future. Yoga fulfills this need of mine, simultaneously practicing breath work.

  • Getting Outside: Being out in nature is truly essential for my mental health. I find my stressors float away while lying in the grass, feeling the sun.​

Why is this important?

​

The brain does not understand real from fake. The brain has no clue which thoughts are true or not; it only mirrors what it is told. This means that if I fill my brain with negativity, it will project negativity. Vice versa, if I fill it with positivity, my reality will be full of positivity and optimism.

​

I do not speak poorly of myself. If I tell my brain I am a failure, it believes me. Instead, I convinced myself time and time again that I am forever on a journey of self-discovery and growth. This way, if I make a mistake, I can see it was an essential lesson I needed to learn to prepare me for the future.

​

I do not complain. (At least I try on this one) Complaining encourages discontent. If I am uncomfortable with something I can control, I work towards improvement. If it is something external, I practice finding peace in that which I cannot change. Complaining lowers your vibrational frequency, thus lowering your human experience.

​

I do not compare myself to others. If I compare, it is my current self to my previous self. This changes "I wish I had her job" to "I am so much happier in this job than my last." Comparing to others fosters negative envy, comparing to myself fosters self-development and the recognition of progress.

​

Our brains are a powerful muscle. One that needs consistent training to work in my favor. The more I practice creating thoughts that help while eliminating thoughts that don't, the easier time my brain will have doing this itself, automatically.
