🍓 Taking care of your mind, body, and soul 🍓
As a busy bee, who loves to constantly be on the go, I often forget to relax and have downtime. Not only do I have thousands of activities and projects at all times, but I also love to be in full control of my life. This can lean to overexertion. The result of not listening to your body and mind can lead to exhaustion and burnout.
Here are a couple ways I have found helpful in letting go of control.
#1. Be mindful of your body
We are not robots, and our bodies need rest. When you are tired or exhausted from lack of sleep, you’re body will let you know. You may start yawning, your eyelids get heavy, your body will tell you...all you need to do is listen.
#2. Stop comparing
With social media being such a big part of our lives, it is easy to compare yourself to everyone else, but you must stop! This kind of mindset will leave you exhausted and constantly wanting more.
#3. Take a break
It is important to give yourself time to relax. Stepping away from your daily routine can be hard, but sometimes that is just want you need. Change things up. Life is meant to be filled with all sorts of interesting experiences, and you will come back fresher. This could be taking a break from work to watch up on your favorite episode of Game of Thrones. Or this could be taking a vacation to a foreign country. Switch it up, surprise yourself.
This post is dedicated to my harding working friend @xaero1 :)
Hope you enjoy the tips!
Love,
Karen
Great tips , am sure that our good hardworking friend @xaero1 will like it..thanks for the tips.
hahah I think so! He asked me onetime if I could write a subject about this topic, so I did! :)
Good job that paid well isnit it?...I think that you should write one for me too
sure sure! What did you have in mind? I'm always open for suggestions.
Make a post about how to have a great beautiful and smilling teeth like Karen (you)
hahhaa! well all you have to do is cheeze really hard and brush your teeth! simple as ABC! :)
Hahaha good tip indeed, you can do a vlog on it ..hahaha . I will love to see that great smile
HAHAH... make a vlog on brushing my teeth? :) That's an interesting idea! :P
Although Social Media is useful in terms of spreading awareness, staying connected with friends or for business, the downside is people can't help but compare their lives to others.
Great post! :)
Thank you! I agree, Social Media is not bad when used correctly. I'm a marketer as my "regular" job, and half of my job involves being on social media everyday! :)
I know that kind of job. I left it and also social media. But I believe when I get to travel business someday, I'm afraid I'm gonna use social media again, ha! :)
That's so awesome that you are out in the world living life! :) Will have to take on that lifestyle one day! :) Maybe Steemit will help me achieve that goal faster.
Many thanks!! :D - although I wouldn't exactly call my work 'work' (even if time-consuming haha) ;). Maybe i'll get back to some real work sometime (or maybe not!)😄
real work is overrated anyways. Being a lord is hard enough! HAHAH 😄
🤴😂
Or do you want to be Frodo now? 💍
I thought I said maybe I am Frodo!🤣 Remember my fake email address - perhaps it isn't fake🤡
Hahahah or maybe you are a Lanaster! 😈 All this trickery
Anyway, enough with the trickery - I better check your posts 😂
Hahahah 🙃 Cheers to that 🎉 Enjoy!!!
MORNING!!! You radio silent today?!?! 😄
Any cool trades today?
P.S. Love that you changed the ❤️ for a 🍓!!! Maybe you should change back at some point I guess though for the benefit of everyone else - people could think that instead of being kind hearted (true) or whatever, you like fruit (possibly true also, but maybe a bit more whacky LOLOLOLOL) 😹
HAHAHHA! that was just for you 🍓! he he he... it's coo if people think im a whackadooo... it wouldn't be a lie, and I do like strawberries!
Just posted new blog btw! hehe I think you'll laugh at some of the photos. And when you do move, you can practice my tips! :)
Watcha up to right now?
btw... hehe one more blog coming up! This one is on "how to be successful on Steemit" :)
Keeping to my daily posts like I said I would!
Actually, I am around....though still to go through my backlog of steem replies! 😉
Finally a take-it-easy day today. Bought some OMG(!) last night (can you believe they created this symbol...so clever! I mean OMG! 😂 Supposedly stands for 'omise-go' whatever that is! No idea what it does, other than it's 'hot' right now!). Also bought back into BTC and ETH with all the rest of my cash :). Still not a bad day - up around $40k perhaps :) Probably I will need to sell everything by tomorrow! 🙃
Also I still plan on making that post! 😂 meanwhile you plan to make three posts a day! 😂 Maybe I need to hire you as my ghost-writer (haha...joking - my TA might end up slightly off-track...pictures of castles and such🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣)
AWW YAY!!!! haha btw I responded to your chat message. You dork! 🤣
OoO chill day chill day! I dig it.... well OMG sounds like my kind of currency considering I say that ALL THE TIME! LOL 40K pretty good... really good! If I made that much in one day. I would just khell over! (I wonder if they could also make a "LOL" currency... it would be pretty popular too)
OOO so I know you don't give trading advice, but I wanted to convert some of my Steem dollars into Bitcoin. If it's not too much, would you let me know when the right time is to trade them? Want to get the best bang for my buck... ya know?
hahah oh the TA sessions would be quite difference.. I would just stick GoT reference everywhere and when people beg for you to upvote them, I'll just stick that image I made you on all the comments. he he he
Okay. I'm prepping my first post! be on da lookout 🙃
Beautiful article
votea ma
thank you! :)
You are doing great. Very happy to see you. Upvoted. And Following you. Good luck.
Thank you!
Great post! I would add 'meditation' as the technique par excellence to develop the necessary relationship both with the body and with others that would prevent the damaging excesses you listed.
Especially given that ALL of our suffering in whatever form it takes comes from a separated ego. Healing involves bringing the ego back into alignment with the body and the Self.
I do like to practice walking meditation. Being aware and focusing on just your body is an amazing experience. Thanks for the awesome comment.
it's great post
thank you !!
you are welcome!
Definitely worth an upvote and a resteem :]
aww thanks for resteeming! So flattered! I LOVE TAY TAY!
