Wellness Podcast

This episode is about thinking about now rather than the future, but also about making some low stakes specific plans for post-pandemic times (even if you have to cancel/change them later). Like, we are not talking buying plane tickets here, guys. And also about thinking about what you do NOT want to change if/when the pandemic is over (for me, it's walking/running and taking care of my mental health more).

In this episode, I talk about how we can use habits to help us keep our decision making bucket more full during the day, which helps both physical and mental health. There is a whole book on habits by Gretchen Rubin called "Better than Before" and I highly recommend it! Also, Lucky Charms for dessert.

In this episode, I talk about just liking what you like and disliking what you dislike and not apologizing for it. Also, I like Taylor Swift. I forgot to say that I also love reading children's literature, so if you do too, that's cool. Also, you are awesome. Have a great week!

In this episode, I talk about how as soon as I posted last week's episode, I kind of realized that I actually *wasn't* OK at the moment. This is my story of how I came up with a plan that worked. But also about how I really did have to be OK with not being OK for a while. Also holding space.

In this episode, I talk about going "back to the beginning" when you feel like/realize that you are actually not OK (which is OK). Try to 1) eat well (healthy) 2) sleep and 3) exercise if you can, and also drink lots of water. *However, also if you realize you are more not OK than this and a little water drinking isn't going to cut it, please do get actual help from not me, since I am in no way a qualified expert on these things.* Air hugs!

This episode is a little all over the place, but so is 2021 so far, so I feel like that's fair. I talk about how to make New Years Resolutions that you might actually keep- spoiler alert, part of my advice is "pick something you actually like" and "pick feasible goals". Happy New Years? I think? 

In this episode, I talk about the importance of keeping up traditions in any ways that we can (and making new ones) for 2020. It makes me feel better and like everything will be OK someday, and my action item is to come up with or tweak a tradition you usually do to make it work in the covid world.

In this episode, I talk about the importance of knowing and focusing on how the pandemic *will* be over someday. This week, take some time to think about what you will do "after."

In this episode, I talk about "Tiger Time," which started with entrepreneur Amy Porterfield. It is the time of day when you feel like you can take over the world, and/or get all the s*** done. It has saved me a ton of time and works for both work and non-work things (cleaning/organizing the house, etc.). 

In this podcast, I talk about how helping others also helps you. Don't be a perfectionist, just help your grumpy neighbor take out their garbage or text your mom (or dad) if you don't have time for anything else.
