❤️ This past week went by pretty quickly...... I stayed on track with Water, Workouts, & Sleep habits. Meal planning and tracking were off-track this week. And I need to work again on improving this area as I've gotten off-track between Family Birthdays etc...

❄️ Its was pretty "Spring-like" here this past week (even though this weekend has gotten a little chillier), but having more milder temps made it much easier to be able to get out and about for Walking. I was able to walk each day this week. And got in All my Aqua and Zumba classes. The coming week ahead is supposed to be MUCH warmer again. Almost late-spring/early summer temps! When the weather is warmer and nicer, it makes it much easier to stay focused and on track. And to be able to remain even more active.

⛄️ This weekend consisted of getting in a Quick workout to start off the weekend, getting our old storage shed torn down (so we can replace with a new one) and getting some trees cut down in our back yard. Doing all of this will now enable us to update and improve the outside and exterior of our home and land before the Spring and Summer months ahead. We also got in a some light shopping and movie night~

🌹 Hey everyone, How have you been this week? All around.

❄️This past week we celebrated Valentines Day.... How did "YOU" Show "Yourself" some "Love" this week?!

I took myself to the cinema, said 'no' to something I wasn't feeling and ordered takeout.


⛄️ What's something Healthy that you did for yourself this week? .....If you could choose to do ONE Healthy thing for yourself and make it a habit, what would that be?

Something healthy I did for myself this week was clean my bathroom.
If I could choose one healthy thing for myself and make it a habit, it would be believing in myself.

❤️ JUST FOR FUN: If you were an 80's Rock-Star, your Name would be The present Color of the Shirt your Wearing, and the Last Thing that you Ate.... (What would YOUR Rock-star Name be)?!..

@PoliteOcean Here’s how the past week went. I skipped a walk on Sunday because I’m tired of looking at ugly houses. I read my book on interpretation of Renaissance art througout the week. Also read my book on poetical interpretation. Wednesday and Thursday I ate a Vietnamese sandwich for lunch. God wants me to support local businesses because they are dependent on me for their livelihood. I’m sad about the death of Raquel Welch. She more than an actress, she was an American icon. Thursday I spent 45 minutes on the phone trying to renew my food stamps and couldn’t get through. Dennis spends almost all his time in his bedroom, which works out great for me. Unfortunately, he doesn’t flush the toilet after he urinates. Wednesday and Friday Leslie was 30 minutes late with dinner. If she is late with dinner, I can’t have my late night snack. Nia only comes over once or twice a week, which makes me happy. She leaves the door open when it’s cold out and the heater is on. I started to use broccoli sprouts on my sandwiches. It’s a huge victory and a major achievement. I applied to be a health care activist for disabled people. They haven’t gotten back to me yet. Saturday I went to the local library and spent 30 minutes trying to get a printout of my 7 day prayer calendar but couldn’t get it to work. I have an appointment with a computer technician to help me but it’s not until March. I hate 3 day weekends because there is no stock market news on Monday. I still have one more laptop that needs to get fixed but I can’t afford that now.

@Regmo

Hey there Regmo.... thats good that you were able to get in some reading on your books. As far as your walk goes.. I know that sometimes we can get in a 'rut' of sorts when we don't change up our course or scenery. Maybe you could change up to a different route? Or walk some place different that inspires your senses better? Or even perhaps if you have them, take some ear-buds and listen to something you enjoy (Whether its Podcasts, or music, or even a Great book since you love to read)....Maybe that can help break up the 'monotony' of things. How was the Vietnamese sandwhich? I don't think I've ever eaten that kind of cuisine before. Chinese/Japanese but never had a Vietnamese option. Good for you for supporting local businesses. Maybe as far as Dennis goes, you just might need to take things as they come by appreciating the smaller things about him that you don't have to tolerate. And looking past the other things he does that you are unable to change about him even if what he does is an annoyance. But I know that might be a challenge. It also doesn't sound like Leslie is going to change much either in her ways. Unless again, maybe you have a talk with her about things. Maybe she's unaware of why being on time with dinner is important? Maybe if she knew, she could try to work on it more? Great job on being able to incorporate healthier items into your eating. Keep up the great work there. Also how awesome that you've applied to help advocate for the disabled. Please keep us updated on how things go with that and if you hear anything. That sounds interesting. Thats too bad that you still weren't able to get the printer to work for your prayer calendar. Is there anyone there that's able to help you with that? Like a library aide? Or supervisor? Maybe they could help? Are you involved or have stock with the stock market? I know that this has disappointed you as well in the past when there are 3 day weekends. Hopefully things come together for you with the laptop situation. Thanks for sharing your week with us and always keeping us up to date with things.

This past week we celebrated Valentines Day.... How did "YOU" Show "Yourself" some "Love" this week?! I painted my nails, did my hair, and got dressed in nice things to work at the library.

⛄️ What's something Healthy that you did for yourself this week? .....If you could choose to do ONE Healthy thing for yourself and make it a habit, what would that be? The healthy thing I did was to cut myself a break. I was fired from my job last week, and it really shocked me. The week after that, I felt afraid to go outside, afraid to go anywhere, terribly stressed and sad and anxious. So, if the most I did was to take the garbage out, then I did well for the day. I let myself stay inside if I didn't want to go out.
The healthy habit I would like to have is healthy eating.

❤️ JUST FOR FUN: If you were an 80's Rock-Star, your Name would be The present Color of the Shirt your Wearing, and the Last Thing that you Ate.... (What would YOUR Rock-star Name be)?!.. Purple buttered noodles. hahahahahahahahaha

❄️What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?...... How were you able to work through your challenges?! The struggle were telling myself that life would be ok, and still taking care of business that was uncomfortable. I didn't work through it well. I let myself rest for a few days, and then started to tackle the work. I pushed through the things I had to do.

⛄️ What would "YOU" Like to talk about, add or share with us this week?! ....WE want to hear from YOU!

Hey there Tree!~ How lovely that you painted your nails, did your hair and put on some nice clothes. It always feels so good to treat ourselves with the little things like that. It can lift our spirits, improve our mood, and make us feel good in every way! Great job and keep up the great work on 'Loving' yourself!

How nice that you were able to cut yourself a break...We are so sorry to hear about your job situation. But we are so proud of you for doing what felt good to you. And for taking care of yourself in the way that you felt you needed. We do hope that you are feeling better this week?!

HAHA...Purple Buttered Noodles... :P Now that would be an interesting Rock Star to listen to!! lolol And by the way.. I LOVE Buttered Noodles!! So yummy. Rock-On!! 🎸

Despite your challenges of the past week, again, its so good that you allowed yourself the rest you needed just to simply take care of your mental well-being. We just need to do that sometimes in whatever ways that we can. Even if and when it simply means doing absolutely nothing! You took the time you needed, and then you were able to get back to tackling things and pushing through. Kuddos on a job well done! Be proud of yourself. We are! Keep up the great work.
And thank you so much for sharing your week with us and letting us know how you are doing. Please continue to check-in and keep us up to date on things.

A big warm hello to you @PoliteOcean and the entire Healthy Living Community ✨️


❤️ Hey everyone, How have you been this week? - I feel very in control and balanced in myself and life in general 😌 It helped me to pause from consistent work with no breaks or without giving myself credit for how far I've come. Reflecting on how far I've come during meditation made me feel even more empowered and even some feelings of self-validation! 💕 I am my proof that I'm strong and capable enough to achieve what I focus on.


❄️This past week we celebrated Valentines Day.... How did "YOU" Show "Yourself" some "Love" this week?! - I've been learning how to do my own hair, nails and eyebrows at home, best decision I ever for myself 🥰💕 As an Empath, I can absorb the energies of everyone in the room. So salon or spa visits are lovely but are more draining than relaxing for me. Absorbing energies through interactions mixed with social anxiety can be exhausting 😪 But atleast it lead me to reawaken my cosmetology skills (I took cosmetology classes in high school and have cosmetologists on both sides of the family 🤭)


⛄️ What's something Healthy that you did for yourself this week? .....If you could choose to do ONE Healthy thing for yourself and make it a habit, what would that be? - I've began taken vitamin C, D, and Iron supplements (I have mild anemia and low iron levels). It's makes me feel naturally balanced with an improved sleep schedule so far!

❤️ JUST FOR FUN: If you were an 80's Rock-Star, your Name would be The present Color of the Shirt your Wearing, and the Last Thing that you Ate.... (What would YOUR Rock-star Name be)?!.. - Lol omg I love this, "Pink Steak and Chips" xD


❄️What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?...... How were you able to work through your challenges?! - My highlight has been just feeling more balanced, well rested and confident in general. I'm always working on my impatience and faith.


⛄️ What would "YOU" Like to talk about, add or share with us this week?! ....WE want to hear from YOU! - Just want to say that Jamaican Beef Patties are a delicious snack to try if you're looking to switch your meals up a bit 🤭 I love them and wanted to spread its delicious awareness xD

Hey there Siren, Always lovely to continue to hear from you! And a big warm Hello back to you!

Its so great for you that you feel in control of things and balanced. Sometimes that in itself can be challenging for many is just finding "Balance" in our lives from day to day. Great job to you for being able to push the "pause" button. And for seeing how far you've come! Kuddos to you! Keep up the amazing work that you are doing on yourself!

Oh how lovely that you are working on "Self-care" needs... Such as doing your own hair, nails, eyebrows...etc.. As a "fellow empath" I TOTALLY know and understand what you mean!... Its actually been almost a year since I've been to the Salon myself, and have too taken on doing these things for myself. :p However I'm NOT by any means a cosmetologist so I'm sure that your skills are much more improved than mine hahaha.... Great job again on taking care of yourself physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually!

Awesome job on incorporating your Vitamins. Have you tried Vitamin B as well? It might help also of course if thats ok with your Healthcare provider (inserts disclaimer there) ;) I too have starting back to taking mine more regularly and know how much that they can help especially when you have a good quality one! You are really doing an amazing job! And its great that these are working for you.
and hahahah "Pink Steak and Chips"... lmbo.. I can't even begin to imagine WHAT type of songs that Rock-Star would sing!??! BUt would be fun to hear!!. LOLOL :P But what a fun name.
ROCK-ON! 🎸🎶🎤

Sounds Like despite any challenges that you are doing a fabulous job with things. And that its working considering you are feeling more balanced, resting AND Confident! Like wow, what a combination!! (BTW... Again, as having something in common, I continue to struggle as well as work on my impatience too!)... And Faith comes by hearing the word. You've got this!

😮 I LOVE Jamaican Beef patties!.. I haven't had them in YEARS!.. But they are oh so yummy. I used to work with a co-worker who was from Africa, and they actually introduced me to them on our lunch break lol.... Imagine that when I simply found them in my local grocery store after never hearing of them. ... I agree, they are a nice switch up on things every now and then, and something quick.

Thanks again for sharing your week with us! Always enjoy reading up on your posts. Continue to keep us up to date on how you are doing.

❤️ Hey everyone, How have you been this week?

Not so great. I've been having some issues. I feel a bit better now - had a big lie in today so that probably helped. Hopefully next week will be better.

❄️This past week we celebrated Valentines Day.... How did "YOU" Show "Yourself" some "Love" this week?!

I didn't really. Except that I tried to validate my feelings whenever I was upset and talk myself through what was going on.

⛄️ What's something Healthy that you did for yourself this week? .....If you could choose to do ONE Healthy thing for yourself and make it a habit, what would that be?

Same thing as above really, tried to validate my feelings whenever I was upset and talk myself through what was going on. A healthy habit I would choose would be going to the gym regularly. I wanted to this week but had zero energy.

❤️ JUST FOR FUN: If you were an 80's Rock-Star, your Name would be The present Color of the Shirt your Wearing, and the Last Thing that you Ate.... (What would YOUR Rock-star Name be)?!..

Black Yorkshire Pudding? 😂 okay

❄️What were your "Highlights Or Struggles" of the week?...... How were you able to work through your challenges?!

Highlights? Not many. Struggles? Have a look at this convenient list: this annoying cough, stomachaches, forgetting to take my vitamins, having a crush who 100% can't reciprocate, going to a vigil, having low energy and skipping like every lecture this week, not getting enough sleep, worrying about diagnostic processes for one disorder I'm getting assessed for and another that I might get assessed for, yeah I think that about covers it. I didn't work through anything so much as I ignored everything and distracted myself so that whatever hurt I was feeling would subside for a little until something made me think about it again, and then I'd distract myself again, etc etc.

⛄️ What would "YOU" Like to talk about, add or share with us this week?! ....WE want to hear from YOU!

I wish I could be healthier. I've just been indulging in so many bad habits this week... staying up too late, eating wayyy too much, ordering so much takeaway, not going to the gym, wallowing in my negative feelings. I wish I could be better straight away but I know that's not how it works and I will need time to break these bad habits. Doesn't help that so much bad stuff has happened this week. Hopefully next week will be better.

Hey there~

So sorry to hear that your week wasn't so great for you, but we are glad to hear that you are feeling a bit better now! ...And we hope that you are getting through those issues and that your week is going better!

Great job to you on validating your feelings and talking yourself through things. Good for you for taking care of yourself! Great job. Keep up the great work.

I know it can be difficult and challenging to force ourselves to do something that mentally we may actually really want to do. Going to the gym regularly can be difficult for some. Perhaps just starting small, and do something for yourself "each day". Even if its just 10-15 minutes of walking outdoors. Small steps can add up to bigger ones. And if you incorporate some smaller things in each day, it can motivate you to keep going and doing a little more! Getting fresh air sometimes can simply give us a boost of energy. And remember to stay hydrated as well!.. If we don't get enough hydration our bodies will naturally feel "sluggish".... Good luck to you on all your efforts and we are here to support you!

HAHAHA "Black Yorkshire Pudding".. LOL...Love it, it sounds like a "British" Rock-Star?!! lol... ROCK ON!🎸🎶🎤

Despite your struggles, maybe remember that you are NOT alone! I teach Fitness classes for the past 11 years. And I too have struggled personally. And I too have weeks or periods when I just don't feel motivated or inspired. And I too "indulge". But you said it best when saying that we do need time to break our habits when we fall into them. That change doesn't always happen overnight. And starting to big can cause us to feel too overwhelmed. Its why we must remember to start small where we can. Maybe by incorporating "one" Healthier meal a day... "One" 10-15 minute or small activity a day, or a week whatever works for you.... and then Build on those things. Remember we are here to support you in any way that we can! We are here for you!

Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by and share your week with us! Please continue to keep us updated on how things are going for you.
