Howlcinth - I Love All Cats Forever

White people love to be like "I avoid Black people because I'm scared I'll accidentally be racist to them" and think it's 1) somehow not racist to do this 2) a normal thing to do and admit

tonight on stream a debate was sparked what my boyfriends pokesona would be and it ended in war and indecision

here are just some simple things to help with stressful times and take care of yourself.

PART ONE

take care of your body

skin care

find a routine and stick to it. ALWAYS WASH YOUR FACE AT NIGHT. remove your makeup, wash your face and moisturize. do a face mask twice a week. watch some videos on different products and try stuff to see what works for you.

try to eat as healthy as possible.

this doesn’t mean cut everything out except greens and other super foods. honestly, the easiest things is to just limit the amount of food you eat. find a balance that works and try to eat around the same time everyday and as hard as it seems try not to eat late at night.

eat breakfast

it’s the most important meal of the day and gets your metabolism going for the day ahead. try to have a full, balanced breakfast. include some sort of carbs. protein and fruit.

drink water

aim for 8 cups a day, but if that doesn’t work for you try for at least 5. it helps clears out toxins in your body. keeps you hydrated and healthy.

exercise

you don’t have to go to a gym, get a personal trainer or anything crazy like that (unless that’s what than you want than totally go for it) if you just hate working out start small. go on a walk, do some jumping jacks and push ups. or start doing sports. maybe get a group of friends together to play a round of soccer or kickball. just be active.

treat yourself

buy that dress you’ve been eyeing for weeks. go get your nails done. eat that slice of cake. it’s okay. you deserve it.

wash your clothes

seriously, take that pile of ‘not dirty but also not clean’ and clean them.

clean out your closet

if it’s too small, ugly, torn up, or you haven’t worn it in the past three months get rid of it. especially go through your underwear and sock drawers.

go outside and enjoy some sunlight

it’s easy to stay cooped up inside. but take your homework, laptop or phone and just sit in the sun instead of on the couch

get your beauty sleep

try getting between 7-8 hours of sleep

keep your living space tidy/organized

not exactly your body but it’s way less stressful and much more relaxing to be in a clean living space than a cluttered on.

shower related stuff;

use shaving cream; eos has really nice ones. or if you don’t have any use coconut oil or conditioner.

focus your shampoo on only your roots; it drys out the ends of your hair

focus conditioner on the ends of your hair (or to the top of your ears); it makes your hair greasier faster if you coat your roots in conditioner

always moisturize after you shower, especially if you shave; there’s in-the-shower moisturizers or just do it once you’ve dried off.

replace your razor every 2 months or so: or until it looks worn out and doesn’t feel smooth.

if you have curly hair put conditioner on the ends of your hair before you shampoo your hair to keep the ends from drying out.

exfoliate/scrub your legs after you shave and shave again to get all the dead skin ( you can mix brown sugar and honey or oil together for a homemade scrub)

use a washcloth instead of a loofah; it helps exfoliate your body leaving it smooth after your shower. use it up to two times before washing it.

dedicate one washcloth/towel for ONLY your face

change your sheets

you should change and wash your sheets every 2-4 weeks and your pillowcase once a week. it collects oils and bacteria and causes breakouts.

go out without makeup for a day

it’ll slowly help you become more comfortable in your own skin (NOT SAYING MAKEUP IS BAD I LOVE MAKEUP BUT YEA) and plus it gives your skin time to breath.

make your bed

it makes ya feel accomplished and looks really nice

make to-do lists

it’s so satisfying to check something off the list, plus it helps keep everything organized.

PART TWO

words of advice (i guess lol)

if you don’t like something about yourself ask yourself why? if it’s something you can easily fix and it’s beneficial to you than try to change it. but if it’s something that can’t be changed then find ways to work with it or use it to your advantage. no one is perfect. we just have to strive to be our best selves.

look at all the people in your life; your friends and family. look at how much they love you and want what’s best for you. and if you think there’s no one take another look.

take time and write down all the things you love about yourself. and no it’s not arrogant/selfish/prideful to do so. you have talents both big and small that deserve to be recognized.

stop comparing yourself to others. everyone has different talents. no one is the same. no one is perfect. they are fighting their own demons just like you.

be patient with yourself.

don’t expect everyone to like you and don’t try to make everyone like you. you’re going to stretch yourself more than you can take.

YOU DESERVE TO BE HAPPY AND DON’T LET ANYONE STOP YOU FROM ACHIEVING THAT.

set boundaries for yourself and stick to them.

“have courage and be kind.”

“embrace the glorious mess you are”

“nobody can make you happy until you are happy with yourself.”

don’t focus so much on the past. learn from it but don’t dwell on it. but also also, don’t look too far into the future. live in the moment. appreciate it.

do something every day that makes you happy.
