Wellbeing practice can be anything that supports a greater mental strength and helps you feel anchored to yourself. The most challenging thing about these practices is remembering to actually do them and to be present with the experience. These are not meant to feel like a chore or yet another thing on your to do list, so pick a practice that you will look forward to engaging in. Here are 5 simple ideas anyone can do daily. 1. Upon awaking, take a few minutes to get in touch with how you want to feel during the day. Remind yourself of that feeling throughout the day. 2. Listen to or read something uplifting and inspirational. Write down parts that resonate with you so you can keep revisiting them. 3. Spend time in nature/outdoors even if just for a few minutes. 4. Reflect on & celebrate a win from the past week/month. Think about what makes it so meaningful? 5. Detach from negative moods and thoughts by writing them down. You don't have to take them with you everywhere you go. Some questions can only be answered by the future you.
Questions like… 👉 “Will it be worth it?” 👉 “Am I making the right decision?” or 👉 “Is this where I’m supposed to go next?” … can only be answered in the future. If you’re struggling to find answers, ask yourself: Is this a question for the future me? Thinking about doing something is not the same as doing it.
The only way to become good at something is to simply do it. Not just think and dream about doing it, but actually do it, because there is no substitute for the experience. You can’t skip through the phases of first being bad at it, not knowing, falling, and learning, but the sooner you start, the sooner you’ll master it.
Before we take a risk we want someone to promise us a successful outcome. We stop ourselves from taking a leap because we don’t know if it will be worth it. But that is how we fail ahead of time. By not even trying. The only way to know if it will be worth it is to move towards the uncertainty and try. |
