What to put in your hellenic journal and why it helps

Building a kharis with gods using a religious journal is really helpful. It helped me keep my information and my thoughts related to the Gods organized. It can also help beginners if they are uncomfortable reciting hymns out loud.

What could be put inside it:

Every day write one delphic maxim and write how you interpret it or what you think about it

Make a shopping list for your altar and offerings

Compose prayers

Hymns/ prayers to your patrons and Hestia, Nyx, Helios, Hypnos

Write something as if you are conversating with the Gods.

Important information on deities

Favorite offerings, incenses, and libations of the Gods

Important Callendar events, festivals, and key info on celebration

Quotes from the most famous books of Gods that you relate to or want to remember

Instructions on composing prayers

What afterlife means in Hellenismos

What defines hubris, agos and miasma

7 pillars of Hellenismos and their meaning

Do some drawings for the Gods as a devotional act

Include your personal experiences with the divine and how it affected you

Write down the signs you saw during the week

You can also decorate it with the images of Gods

I don't know what's happening but cool

Ok so I know everyone is talking about the animation that just got posted, now that your gone stolas one.

Tw: Metions of gore, s*icide, and self harm. Please if you’re struggling don’t be afraid to reach out to those who you trust.

And I wanna share my thoughts even tho nobody asked lmao.

Im gonna say this before continuing:

Do I think that helluva boss should have dark topics like this? Yes, should it be done like in the video? No not really.

As someone who does like stolas, I think He has a lot of flaws, bad father, hypocrite, etc. you don’t have to be on my side about this, this post isn’t made to change everyone’s mind. I wanna share my thoughts as someone who loves helluva and wants to see it be written better. It would have been nice to see a more darker side with the story, how depending on someone so hard can destroy not only those around you but you as well.

Do I believe stolas loved blitz? Yes of course, thats why Im explaining all of this. Stolas wanted Blitz to stay with him without a second thought, but when he didn’t say yes right away it broke him. Because he wants to feel the person who he views as amazing as someone who loves him deeply. We know that stolas has depression as well, we’ve been shown this. Like I said, I don’t think showing him killing himself is the only way. But we should have seen how bad his depression can be, weather it’s self destructive, isolating himself, or even ignoring what happen and forcing himself to work more. Helluva wants to be an adult show, there are so Good elements in it.

For example, ghost fuckers. My personal favorite episode because we got to explore Blitz depression with what happen, how much he thinks he ruins those around him, how much he wanted to care about stolas. Even showing how he views everyone around him. Sure there was some gore but not a lot. They could have done that with stolas, we’ve seen him use the stars to explore how he feels, we could have seen how he views himself, how he views his loved ones. How much it broke him when blitz didn’t answer him. His thought process, hell even if he’s scared to be like his father.

Helluva should be able to write scenes that make people uncomfortable and sick. Because they shown they can do something like that with ghost fuckers. My best example of shows making uncomfortable writing without gore is bojack. It’s able to explore mental illness and how it affects people so heavily. Making things uncomfortable because mental health IS uncomfortable sometimes.

Anyways, sorry if this makes no sense, I’ve just been wanting to yap about this topic so yeah :D remember that you’re not alone, please reach out if you need help

some people on insta said i should post my workout routine since i mentioned how im so happy with the results, so here’s my little workout guide for my fellow trans folk! I focused on getting a more masculine body because obviously that’s what I want. I’m so happy with the results, this workout is saving my fucking life!!!! I can’t get on T soon so this has really been keeping my dysphoria in check. I barely get body dysphoria, i love how my clothes looks on me, i love feeling confident for once in my life!!! HOWEVER Don’t go overboard with working out my friends. Do not work out in a binder, you MUST take days off to let your muscles heal, and you CAN’T starve yourself! Fitness is all about health and diet! Take care of yourself. This is also MY workout routine, you may not get the same results as I have! Every body is different.
