How To 'Glow Up' ~
♢ Take up a new hobby/skill (such as):
Learn how to play an instrument, learn a new language, learn how to manage stress take a course (online or elsewhere) in something you're interested in
♢ Build better habits (like)
Skincare routine/Taking care of your skin in general self-care routine (Not necessarily face mask and bath bombs, it could be anything from clipping your fingernails to setting aside time to read or do yoga, etc)Working out/Exercising every day
♢ Break bad habits (like):
Going to bed really lateEating lots of 'junk' food/drinking sugary drinks cut down screen time
♢ Read!:
You can never go wrong with a good book! Books not only increase focus but a memory as well! Plus who doesn't like a little extra knowledge ;)
♢ Get a new look:
Clean out your wardrobe and add new pieces get a haircut/look for new ways to style your hair if you're into makeup play around with different looks get a piercing or tattoo if it's something you've been meaning to do
♢ Hydrate!:
Because we all knew it was coming. Summer can get extremely hot so fight off dehydration by keeping water at hand
♢ Get organized:
Organize your spaces/belongings (bags, bedroom, apartment/house, storage, etc)Invest in a planner/bullet journal/notebook to keep track of events and to-do's (your phone works too but personally I prefer a physical copy)
♢ Focus on your mental health:
Work on ending toxic relationships (romantic, platonic, or familial)Or work on not being the toxic part of a relationship if you need professional/medical help to manage your mental health take the steps to do so Let your main focus be on you and doing what's best for you, not what negatives people have to say about you. Have some zero-days where you don't do anything besides focus on you/do the things you want to do
♢ Get to know yourself/Do a self-assessment:
Think about who you are and who you want to beThink about your immediate goals and goals for the future to both of those things ask yourself how are you going to achieve them/set SMART goals, Identify your likes and dislikes. Fight negative thoughts/learn to accept your flaws. Also, personality tests can be quite fun! (I prefer the quizzes such as the '16 personalities'/deeper and more meaningful tests rather than 'what ice cream flavor are you?'
♢ Make memories/Go on adventures:
With your family, friends, by yourself. oftentimes we can get so caught up in our hustle that we forget to relax and have fun- therefore set aside time to do something relaxing/fun every week or two such as going to the mall, out to eat, or curling up at home with a good book/movie.
♢ Sleep well:
everything begins here. you'll look better, you'll feel better and you'll function better.
♢ take your pleasures seriously:
indulge, enjoy,be wild every now and then.
♢ Always do what you love!!
