Hi there,
Hope you are holding up well on day 10 of #LockdownIndia !
Weekend is here--although every day now resembles the other. There's no concept of "weekday" anymore. Those of you who are working from hope--I hope you get a respite from the usual work pressure and added stress of work-from-home.
I had a fabulous
home workout today. I think it is possible to have a proper workout at home, and be fit even though we don't have access to the gym.
I think it is very important to celebrate our smallest successes. Be it a simple task like sweeping and mopping the house, or resisting the temptation to take an afternoon snooze or cleaning up your bathroom really well. We need to remember to applaud ourselves for even the smallest tasks we managed to achieve, simply because these are very stressful times. Our idea of 'normal' has been completely distorted, and we're bombarded with news of deaths and suffering.
I find that journalling helps me. I have been writing in journals ever since I was a child. I write when i am sad, when I am happy, worried, excited, eager, tired, confused. Writing has been my saviour for ages.
Have you ever maintained a journal? If so did you give up because you were bored of the monotony?
If you want to journal and are looking for what you can write about please read this article:
7 different ways to journal to help you help you create, reflect and explore.
I want to give you a little kick-start into appreciating yourself: So in my comment box, tell me 5 good things about yourself that you are proud of!
I was once asked this in an interview. You can watch the
interview here where I have candidly answered why I love myself.
Do it--go! If you are reading this in your inbox,
head over to my blog
and feel free to use my comment box.
See you tomorow!
Till then--get busy, filling up my comment box with 5 good things about you. What you believe are good (not what others tell you).
Lots of love
Preeti

1. I am an ardent reader, like reading, can concentrate on what I read without bothering much about the surrounding.
2. I prefer to take notes while reading, so that whatever I read I can remember the same for a considerable amount of time.
3. I am a fitness freak. My day is incomplete with some sort of physical exercise.
4. I am a vegetarian by choice. At times it becomes difficult for me to stick to the veg diet.
5. Unlike other boys of my age I like to play outdoor games, and often try to include others, for the sake of physical well being..
