most of the time, we see routines that focus only on doing the absolute best. but sometimes, that is too much. sometimes, we can’t even get out of bed. so, if you’re in that situation right now, here is a small routine that i try following when everything feels like too much.

♡ get clean. and i don’t mean an intricate skincare routine or showering. just splash some cold water in your face. maybe put on a bit of lotion to moisture your little cheeks. if you can’t brush your teeth, maybe try to just swish some mouthwash around your mouth. it might not sound like much, but these small things will make you feel a lot more clean and taken care of.

♡ eat at least one thing. it doesn’t have to be healthy. anything is better than nothing. if ice cream or chocolate is all you can eat, that’s amazing! this one is so important.

♡ watch something calm and comforting. focusing on a movie or show can be hard, but having it play in the background and seeing the scenery and hearing the music/voices can subconsciously make you feel comforted. my favourite thing to watch is studio ghibli movies! i highly recommend them! they always make me feel soothed and safe.

♡ soothe your senses. this could be almost anything; drinking something warm/cold and focusing on how it feels in your mouth and throat, light your favourite scented candle or if you have flowers at home/in your garden - focus on the smell. maybe look at pretty pictures and focus on what you like about looking at them.

♡ go to bed as early as you feel like you can. maybe put on some asmr or lullabies to fall asleep too. and don’t forgot to take all medications you need to take before you fall asleep!

♡ and, most importantly, don’t fall asleep with a guilty mind. what you managed to do today is amazing, whatever it is that you managed to do. simply waking up is amazing !! tomorrow is a new day and a new chance to feel better. now, let’s sleep. i’m very proud of you for getting through the day ♡
