You can lose weight just by walking more.

Seriously. Walking is so good for you.

Most people who need to put themselves first donโ€™t do it because theyโ€™re afraid it will make them like the narcissists who have hurt them.

Put yourself first anyway. Youโ€™re not being a narcissist.

Youโ€™re healing.

We all have hope for healing from mental illness, because the essence of mental illness is delusion. This means that reality is the cure. Acceptance, grounding and presence are the medicines that deliver it.

Here's the thing about wanting to improve yourself

Just start

Don't wait until new years and some resolution that will probably be broken, just start now. It doesn't matter if it takes 1000 steps, just focus on step 1, then step 2, then step 3

Youโ€™re an athlete.
No matter what kind of body you are in.
No matter your weight.
No matter your health.
You are an athlete.

Bravery is selfless dedication to stand for what's right in the face of overwhelming odds.
We admire Ukrainians for what they are facing head on.
What we must learn from them.
Many see the current situation as grim.
We in Europe must re-learn what it means to be brave again.
Whatever the odds๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’›

In the coming years, remember to live your life as an expression of your values rather than in reaction to the deeds and misdeeds of those in power.
