To hang out with yourself with no distractions can do wonders. I recently did this and didn’t realize how much I needed to recline and reflect.
You can do a little introspection to see what you love about your life and what is frustrating you. You can dig deeper and see why those things are the way they are.
You can open your heart and truly listen to it. This can be done with journalling, video diaries, or even voice notes. Just allow yourself to give a voice to the unknown feelings you might be experiencing. You’ll be surprised with what your heart says, thinks, and needs.
Is there an activity that you used to love that you can schedule this week?
Did you have a painting streak? Were you an avid reader? Did you like to hop cafes in the morning?
Why not bring it up again to experience it? It might be something you didn’t even know you needed.
If this resonates with you, I truly hope you can take some time for yourself. You deserve it.
Sincerely,
Your Author Bayinnah

⏳ Our Little Time Capsule ⏳
Today was a great time for me!
I was able to look and take inventory of how I felt. I got clear on what I wanted and learned some new things about myself. My name, Bayinnah, means clarity so I always welcome a little more of it.
I think a fun way to look into what you want, is to see what you pin on Pinterest. Your feed and your boards are pretty much a reflection of your innermost desires. Every time I forget, I just head over there and see what I pinned.
Pinterest is just shopping for your life at this point.
When you align with a pin, you put it in the board cart lol.
Another thing I did was something Brooke Arcanum mentioned in her YouTube video. She mentioned doing a voice note brain dump. A brain dump is simply getting everything off of your mind. It doesn’t matter if it sounds crazy or not, just get it out. I ended up talking for an hour. I didn’t even know I had that much to say.
I am curious about what you like to do to reconnect with yourself. Do you like watching movies? Do you like going to a certain place?
I would love to know! Let’s write our collective diary.
