I have been reading my Yoga Sutra, in particular I would like to share this one with you.
Vitarka Baadhane Pratipak Shabhaa Vanam. "When disturbed by negative thoughts, opposite (positive) ones should be thought of.
If the thought of hatred is in the mind, cultivate the thought of love.
"What you think, you become, what you feel, you attract, what you imagine, you create." ~Buddha~
The power of positive thinking is remarkable. training your mind to think positive can be achieved by leveraging a simple concept. Your mind has enough bandwidth to only focus on one thought at a time. All you have to do is keep it focused on uplifting thoughts until you form the same types of neural pathways that are created when you establish a new habit. When a negative event occurs, as hard as it can be, trying to find just a glimmer of optimism can truly help to protect the emotional outcome. When you think and talk about what you want and how to get it, you feel happier and in greater control of your life, when you think about something that makes you happy, your brain actually releases endorphins, which give you a generalized feeling of well-being. AS a result, you develop a positive attitude.

Practice Mindfulness & Meditation
Mindfulness is an important practice to infuse more calm into your life. I find that being mindful encourages me to enjoy the little moments I would otherwise miss.
"Once we learn to let go and accept change and transformation, limitless possibilities open up. Letting go can confer strength and adaptability and present us with a clear view of everything around us. When we try to force the world to fit in with our expectations, we struggle endlessly. But when we let go and give in to change, we start to become flexible and open to new possibilities that we may have missed in the past.
Meditation allow you to let go; The more you can do this, the more you'll be able to wake up to endless possibilities. When you let go of rigid and inflexible habit patterns, you free yourself to realize your full creative potential." Jane Hope. The Meditation Year

Embrace Slow Movement
Sometimes our bodies crave slow movement like yoga or going for a walk, often we get into the mindset that we have to sweat during a workout to make it "worth it" Instead, be okay with taking it slow and not feeling the need to "sweat" every time you work out.

Eat like rainbow. Colorful nutritious food. Eat slowly & mindfully. Practice eating meditation often. Eat more veggies, we all know we should eat more vegetables, but actually doing it is another story.
Lighten up your diet avoiding fatty, fried foods & alcohol. It's o.k to have a nice treat occasionally. This will result in a real boost for your system, help you to boost immunity and stay balance during isolation.

Nourish your skin, taking care of your skin is an important part of self-care. Not only does it help your complexion, a skin care ritual can allow you time to relax and unwind at the end of the day. I want to stick to a simple yet relaxing daily skin care routine.
Here is my Tropic online shop, you will find everything there to create your home spa experience.
