Hello and Happy New Year, curvalicious divas!
I have been away for awhile. And during that time I will admit I fell off the wagon a little bit. I am a grad student, and the last few months of 2017 were the hardest of my academic career. My eating got a little messy and I was NOT hitting the gym the way I should have. In addition to a hard semester, I began transitioning to a new job, so my finances began to deplete. But I really knew I had hit a hard place when, one day, I forgot to eat.
I was depressed. I was embarrassed. I was STRESSED out.
But listen, ladies. Stress is a killer. And that’s why I had to take a break from a lot. I paused my acting, declined most social events, and chose not to blog because I didn’t feel like I could give you my best. Going forward into 2018, here are resolutions you can keep your stress levels low and your body in tact.
Sweat the Stress Away
Give your stress a healthy point of release through rigorous exercise–running, boxing, cycling. If you’re like me, leading a naturally busy and stressful lifestyle, pencil in a workout at least 3-4 days per week. Make it a part of your schedule. Dedicate just 45 minutes to an hour to keep yourself strong through stressful times.
Whatever You, Do NOT Stress Eat or Drink
When you get stressed out, the cortisol levels in your body increase and cause it to hold tighter to salt, sugar, and fat. This makes it harder to burn off that Monday Blues cheeseburger you’re eating. I get it. The first thing I want to eat is a Popeyes chicken and biscuit meal (and a bottle of wine) after I look at my syllabus. But restrain yourself. Feed your body clean foods–lean meats, fresh fruits and vegetables, herbal tea. It will lend you more energy and lower your chances of putting on excess stress weight.
No Self-Condemnation
Speak positive affirmations over yourself and your body. Encourage yourself to stay healthy or to improve your health instead of shaming yourself for your shortcomings.
Let’s say buh-bye to excess stress in 2018!
XOXO,
Jessica
Stayed up ‘til 4 in the morning working on this bad boy– a submission to the Women’s March on Washington call for art. I’d love for it to be chosen, knowing my artwork is there, standing strong for women’s rights when I wasn’t able to (I WILL be at the sister march in Austin though!) I’m also aware, though, that I went a little crazy with the illustrative part and it may not make for a great political poster… oh well!
Today is another day in the fight, ladies! This amazing curvalicious diva art is perfect for International Women’s Day and the strike A Day Without A Woman. Get involved and resist the patriarchy ✊
