Of the rare times I actually write on pen and paper. I usually write on paper after 6 PM just to avoid harsh lights and sleep like a baby. I’ve always struggled with my sleeping schedule Specially after I got into college Damn you, college! Who else got a fucked up sleeping schedule? __________

I have to tell you guys since this lock-down started, I’ve been trying to keep sane. It’s been 5 weeks for me and the key to keeping me sane is cooking, reading and having routines. Today I want to share the latter with you.

MORNING ROUTINE

04.25 Drink 1 glass of water (1 min)

04.26 Arrange bed (2 min)

04.28 Weight check (1 min)

04.29 Stretching (15 min)

04.45 Read (30 min)

05.15 Get inspired (5 min)

Note: I wake up this early not because I want to, but because I have to help my parents at the bakery at 05.30. I realized waking up and immediately going to work makes me moody and it just isn’t the best way to start my day peacefully. Which is why I wake up an hour earlier.

PRE WORK ROUTINE

7.00 Make and drink tea  (15 min)

7.15 Workout (1 hour)

8.15 Make breakfast and eat (30 min)

8.45 Shower (10 min)

8.55 Change and get ready for studying/ work (5 min)

WORK ROUTINE

9.00 Clean workspace (5 min)

9.05 Distraction proof (5 min)

9.10 Plan upcoming work and check calendar (15 min)

9.25 First Pomodoro (35 min)

10.00 Break (10 min)

10.10 Second Pomodoro (35 min)

10.45 Break (10 min)

10.55 Third Pomodoro (35 min)

11.30 Break (10 min)

11.40 Fourth Pomodoro (35 min)

12.15 Write down what got done, what didn’t get done and follow up tasks (10 min)

Note: My Pomodoros tend to be a little longer. I have been using this technique for about 2 years now, and realized 25 minutes was too short for me. I started to play around different times, and figured I am my most productive with a 35-minutes Pomodoro followed by a 10 minute break. That’s just what works for me.

______________________________

So that’s how I spend my days. Sometimes, I won’t do all 4 Pomodoros because I don’t have much to do. I do try not to work after 1PM, I like having my afternoon free to do what I want to do. Maybe I want to draw, or read, I also do some gardening around 5PM, but I just do things that I feel like doing. I’ve been doing this for about 2 months, and I honestly feel much better. Hope you guys get some inspo out of the routines that I have! 

If you guys want to share your routines, feel free to do so and tag me! I really want to read what your routines are like!

I am really enjoying my Saturday evening-night routine Mint tea, fruits, and new (to me) anime. I bet it’s easy to guess who made me watch Yuri on Ice

20.00 -  Dinner! Practice kitchen magic by filling your dinner with fresh, healthy and tasty food. Use spring fruits and vegetables to draw power from the current season. Eat slowly and enjoy each bites. 

20.30 -  Spring is the season for learning and starting new projects ; take advantage of this energy to open a book about witchcraft, spirituality or any topic you’ve been interested in. Drink calming herbal teas like lavender, chamomile, sage or lemon balm. 

21.15 -  Clean your face and brush your teeth, while repeating peaceful and positive affirmations. I like to say out loud “I did my best today. I’m grateful for both the good moments and the challenges that came my way.” while taking care of my skin.

21.30 -  Stretch your body. You can follow a night/slow yoga class, or simply do your own movements, whatever feels good. Listen to soft, calm music. 

21.50 -  If possible, sit outside and meditate under the moonlight. Turn off all lights inside your home, leaving only some candles burning. Sit down. Breathe. Seize calming and tender thoughts from the moon. 

22.00 -  Lie in bed, and make sweet dreams.
