My current problems -
feeling empty and blank all the time
having a poverty mindset. Because I was raised in poverty I always thought I couldn't dream bigger. This has been a huge hindrance
I live in a highly disorganized mess
complete lack of self care and mental illness. This one is difficult. I'm on medication for depression but it doesn't help much. It only helps a little. I have been taking the med for months now.
my romantic life was a mess. But I'm not looking for romance. That part needs to be shelved because I don't think I'm perfect for relationships.
my disability and major health problems that will take years to sort out. Sometimes I think whether I'll even make it through.
my lack of productivity hurts me the most. Constant tiredness. Dysregulation. My autism.
I make money inconsistently. I want a good continuous stream of income that will heal my financial problems.

What is life? Just think about it Reena, just think about it.

First make a detailed list of your problems. Discuss this problem out loud. Spend 5 minutes presenting each problem. Place a priority tag or status on each problem. Now contemplate on how the problem might be solved.

My problems are real.
I ate healthy today.

Work on your mental health throughout this year.

Multiple forms of the same awareness can exist. One form of awareness can communicate with another. Drops of water make an ocean. The same ocean is present in the drop. The same drop makes the ocean.

the actionable steps that individuals can take to enhance their mental health on a daily basis -
1. Establishing a Consistent Sleep Routine:
Adequate sleep is paramount for mental health. Consistent sleep patterns regulate mood, cognition, and emotional stability.
Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night, maintain a regular sleep schedule, and create a calming bedtime routine.
2. Mindful Breathing and Relaxation Techniques:
Mindful breathing reduces stress, anxiety, and promotes a sense of calm. It activates the parasympathetic nervous system, fostering relaxation.
Encourage practices such as deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation, or guided imagery to manage stress and enhance mental well-being.
3. Physical Activity for Mental Health:
Regular exercise releases endorphins, which act as natural mood lifters. Physical activity is linked to improved cognitive function and reduced symptoms of depression and anxiety.
Advocate for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise most days of the week, tailored to individual preferences and abilities.
4 .Nutrition and Brain Health:
Nutrient-rich diets positively impact brain function and mental health. Certain vitamins and minerals play crucial roles in neurotransmitter synthesis.
Promote a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and omega-3 fatty acids to support cognitive function and emotional well-being.
5. Social Connection and Support:
Social relationships are vital for mental health. Strong connections reduce feelings of isolation and contribute to emotional resilience.
Encourage individuals to maintain and nurture relationships, engage in social activities, and seek support when needed.
6.Limiting Screen Time and Digital Detox:
Prolonged screen time, especially on social media, can negatively impact mental health by fostering comparison and exacerbating feelings of inadequacy.
We suggest regular breaks from screens, setting boundaries on social media use, and promoting face-to-face interactions for a healthier digital balance.
7. Practicing Gratitude and Positive Affirmations:
Cultivating gratitude and positive affirmations can reframe negative thought patterns and enhance overall mental well-being.
Encourage the daily practice of gratitude journaling or reflecting on positive aspects of life to foster a positive mind-set.

Start your day with mindfulness: Begin each morning by taking a few deep breaths and practicing mindfulness meditation, even if it's just for five minutes. This simple exercise can help you cultivate a sense of calm and clarity, setting the tone for a more centered and focused day.
Engage in physical activity: Regular exercise has been proven to boost mood and reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity daily, whether it's going for a brisk walk, doing Yoga, or hitting the gym.
Prioritise self-care: Make time for activities that nourish your mind, body, and soul. This could include taking a warm bath, reading a book, listening to uplifting music, or engaging in a hobby you enjoy.
Practice reflection: it is possible to learn to reflect on the patterns of one’s thinking. One of ay of doing so is to journal everyday and revisit the journal at the end of the week. You will discover which of your thinking patterns are helpful and which are unhelpful.
Connect with others: Maintaining social connections is crucial for mental well-being. Make an effort to reach out to friends and loved ones, whether it's through a phone call, video chat, or in-person gathering.

Practice mindful eating: Pay attention to your eating habits and make an effort to consume a balanced, nutrient-rich diet. Certain foods can impact mood and energy levels, so choose nourishing options whenever possible.
Engage in stress-reducing activities: Identify activities that help you unwind and decompress, such as journaling, practicing deep breathing exercises, or engaging in creative pursuits.
Seek professional help when needed: If you're struggling with persistent feelings of sadness, anxiety, or other mental health concerns, don't hesitate to seek support from a qualified mental health professional.
Remember, improving mental health is an ongoing journey and it is essential to be patient and consistent with your efforts. By incorporating these small steps into your daily routine, you can cultivate a healthier, more balanced mindset and enhance your overall well-being.

Which Spirituality has imposed anything on you other than you doing it to yourself?
I didn't get you. Nobody ever told you or tells you anything. Everyone has their path. If you have to follow something specific then it's no different than religion.

Technically there should be no hierarchy in love. Love should be unconditional.

I have been fortunate at least partially in collecting witchcraft items. I have spent years in collecting them. I saved money over the years and when I had enough I gradually collected those items. I'm so proud I could finally have certain things that I needed

I'll be taking part in an orientation program today that deals with helping poor children with their educational needs. I'll be teaching them the basics of education. I'm thrilled at such an opportunity and thanks to the program organizers for inviting me.
