Putting in some work

The oversized sweater: a dreamy blend of warmth, coziness, and versatility. From chunky knits to lightweight blends, these sweaters are designed to give you that “wrapped in a blanket but make it fashion” vibe.

Why You’ll Love It

Oversized sweaters offer comfort while allowing for endless styling possibilities. Whether you’re heading to a casual brunch or working from home in style, this wardrobe hero strikes the perfect balance between laid-back and polished. Bonus? They flatter every body type when styled the right way!

"There is no glory in suffering just take the medicine"

I haven't seen it said much on many of these glow-up/self-improvement accounts, so let me put it out there for you all: Psychiatric medications can be among the most powerful of tools.

People talk a lot about "shifting your mindset" in a metaphorical sense. The right psych medication will do this for you on a chemical level. I have genuinely forgotten what it feels like to have an anxiety disorder.

Never feel ashamed for doing what you need to do to improve your quality of life.

"Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is stronger than any obstacle." – Christian D. Larson

You’ve grown into someone who would have protected you as a child. And that is the most powerful move you made.

GLOW UP GUIDE FOR 2025⠀

READ: On average, it takes more than 2 months before a new behavior becomes automatic — 66 days to be exact. And considering that 2025 is precisely these many days away, why not start with our glow up plan already?

Physical Glow Up-

BODY

— 5-10K steps a day.

— 7-8 hours of sleep.

— workout everyday for 1 hr atleast- yoga/stretching/pilates/cardio. a workout may take one hour, but your mood will be boosted for the next 12 hours.

— posture training.

— sunlight exposure after waking up for at least 10 minutes.

NUTRITION

— 2-3 liters of water every day.

— limit your caffeine intake.

— avoid sugars as much as you can.

— high protein diet, pre and probiotics.

— more fruits and veggies (+ green smoothies if you like).

— no junk/processed food/trans fat.

— no eating after 8 pm.

SKINCARE

— be clear on your skin type (oily, dry, combination, sensitive).

— once you're clear, use these accordingly- cleanser, toner, targeted serum, eye cream, moisturizer, sunscreen (≥50 spf).

— keep your bedding clean as well.

— no picking of skin on your lips, cuticle etc.

— gua sha to help improve blood circulation and lessen toxins.

— cold therapy may take three to five minutes of being uncomfortable, but your energy levels will be boosted for the rest of the day.

— remove makeup before you go to bed.

BODY CARE

— shower every day.

— exfoliate 2x a week.

— use body lotion (shea butter/aloe vera gel/coconut oil).

HAIR CARE

— wash hair 2-3x a week

— oil your scalp 2x a week, at least 3 hours before shampoo.

— hair mask 1x per week.

— never brush wet hair.

— use silk pillow case.

HYGIENE

— brush your teeth 2x a day, clean tongue and the roof of the mouth daily.

— floss daily.

— cut your nails 1x a week, never remove the cuticles.

— glycolic acid under arm for odor and discoloration.

— never use soap on your coochie.

Mental Glow Up-

MINDSET

— set clear goals- define and breakdown your aspirations.

— start your mornings with positive affirmations.

— surround yourself with uplifting content and people.

— be shamelessly selfish to your career and mental health, remove anyone or anything that doesn't align with your priorities and wellbeing.

— boost your brain health by these 4 neuroscience tools:

difficult first: start your day with the most difficult task (cortisol and dopamine are high in the body meaning that your body/mind is primed to work).

rest your eyes: introduce a micro-pause after learning by resting/closing your eyes - will help retain information better.

tomorrow's worries: write tomorrow's to-do list before bed as it is proven to be effective in helping you fall asleep.

find time to play: engage in low-stake play. can be anything you find fun but where the outcome doesn't matter (induces neuroplasticity + reduces stress).

MIND

— meditation might take as low as ten minutes, but your focus will be improved for the rest of the day.

— no social media after waking up and at least an hour before bed.

— keep aside 1 hr of time to read daily! reading a new book may take five hours, but you will keep the knowledge forever.

— journaling, gratitude.

— digital detox once a week or for 12 hours.

— limit unnecessary screentime, unfollow or cut off people you don't want to see.

JOURNALING

— choose a regular time each day to journal, making it a part of your routine.

— find a quiet, comfortable place free from distractions. light a candle if you want.

— allow your thoughts to flow without censoring or editing.

— write about your feelings and emotions to understand them better. write about things you are thankful for to boost your mood. write about your short-term and long-term goals. identify what triggers certain emotions or reactions

— set a timer for 5-10 minutes and write continuously during that time.

— reflect on both positive experiences and challenges.

— make lists, journal your thoughts on these questions.

— journal at night to clear your mind before bedtime, because emotions and thoughts lose their power once we acknowledge them.

— a gratitude practice may take five minutes, but your mindset will be shifted for the rest of the day.

AFFIRMATIONS

— customise affirmations to your needs.

Personal Life-

WEEKLY TASKS

— initiate small changes: begin with small, manageable tasks such as making your bed or cleaning your room every sunday.

— celebrate your success: reward yourself when you achieve your goals or have a consistently productive week. consider treats like buying flowers for yourself or watching your favorite show.

DAILY WORK

— set achievable goals: establish realistic goals for the day, week, or month ahead.

— track your progress.

— organise your work space, declutter your shelves etc.

— embrace the power of lists: keep a list of tasks to be done and their deadlines. this way, you start each day with a clear plan. to make it visually appealing and motivating, consider using productivity apps like evernote, habit tracker, or notion.

PRODUCTIVITY TIPS

— wake up early.

— plan ahead everything, do scheduling. you can use:

google calendar / notion / tasks .

— if the task takes less than 2 minutes to finish, do it immediately.

— countdown rule, if you are procrastinating, count 1-2-3-4-5 and jump.

— start slow, don't rush and try to do everything at one time.

— follow a proper routine, use app locks based on screentime.

— pomodoro technique, 25 min work, and 5 min break.

— schedule longer break times as well e.g 30 min nap.

Don't make the mistake of being so understanding and forgiving that you overlook the fact that you're being disrespected.

كيف كانت تجربتكم مع الحب؟

الافضل هو عدم تجربته وابقاء القلب طاهرا الى ان يكون اول من يدخله هو الزوج .. هكذا عاشت

نساء فاضلات على مدى قرون ، كان هنالك قصص ولكن ليست في مجتمع المؤمنات الصادقات

How was your experience with love? The best thing is not to try it and keep the heart pure until the first person to enter it is the husband. This is how virtuous women lived for centuries. There were stories, but not in the community of true believers.

Mornings with you ❦

Motivation is overrated. What you need is discipline.

Discipline doesn't require motivation, happiness, nice weather, cute hair, the right clothes, the latest equipment, that one inspirational video that will change it all. Discipline only requires you.

Discipline requires you in pieces, too: bits of you, bare minimums, daily littles, step by steps. Motivation is always calling up big moves, 3 A.M. transformations, Monday makeovers, bonfires that quickly sizzle; but discipline keeps you warm through the thickest winter.

Discipline only wants you in return. It's always you, and only you, over and over.
