do you consider your bedroom a sanctuary? what makes you drowsy?

✅✅ ✅✅

🖊️this is a place where i have a chance to wind down and shatter the shackles of fatigue. i need to drown out all the noise cause they sap my joy but sometimes it gets tricky since my neighbors from downstairs and next door behave loudly (angry tenants with many children whom i dream of evicting and settling their restless offsprings… oh no i am not the one who loves unknown kids especially when they act up since i highly appreciate my comfort and personal space). i discovered earplugs and lately i feel an urgent need to use them constantly cause they help me navigate through noise (even when it’s utter silence outside).
✨i’m the type who needs to be surrounded by cozy stuff. for this reason i made up my mind to embellish my bedroom (and other rooms tbh haha) with a festoon with warm-tone bulbs.
📚one more interesting observation i have made about myself is that i am inclined to nod off every time i revise english vocab (no hard feelings haha from the bottom of my heart i adore english but at nights it acts as a powerful sedative haha) and even slumber while reading books in the evening (oh gosh i am a total grandma who hates children fancies calmness and dozes off over a book…).
💿the thing that helps me switch off is a cup of strong chamomile tea of an evening. gosh i get such a kick out of it (especially its flavor). highly recommend you giving it a shot! and don’t forget about a fluffy weighted duvet!
✨i know… the last thing i omitted was purchasing a rocking chair and a pair of glasses and a lacy shawl. my granny kit is ready.

does diagnosing yourself with maladies and ailments ring a bell for you?

🔺i used to be that type of person before i entered medical university. luckily for me i managed to shake off the shackles of this ‘psychological problem’ when i mastered the way human body works inside and out. this text is not about recruiting you into becoming a doctor haha (it can go hand in hand though) just wanna try to alleviate your “psyching out” mode and inquisitive mind full of pre-set decisions.
🔺never infer a final conclusion when searching for symptoms and use only reputable and trustworthy sources. there is soooo much nonsense on the internet. use it wisely to stay informed not to make a final call.
🔺before making a doctor’s appointment collect all the symptoms thoroughly and stay sincere while answering doctor’s questions. even odd ones may be beneficial to define the cause of your ailment.
🔺if you are keen on inflating severity of your condition (you are trying to ascertain your body is okay far too often) make a psychiatrist’s appointment because this can be a severe medical disorder (hypochondria) that can only be treated with medication and therapy.
🔺the capstone of preventive medicine is living a healthy lifestyle. take on less stress. steer away from substance abuse and hit the gym. cut back on junk food. get into personal growth and fill your schedule with other stuff in order to leave no room for rumination.

❤️Недавно выучила это слово и решила поделиться с вами. It was an eyesore to me глазная мозоль, что слово is reminiscent of напоминает о “сесамовидные“ кости. Оказалось, у них общая этимология.

💙💙💙💙💙
❤️Самая крупная сесамовидная кость в нашем организме - надколенник. Если посмотреть на ее анатомию, четко вырисовывается кунжут.
That’s the story такие пироги

To live off smbd жить за чей-то счет звучит весело до тех пор, пока ты однажды не замечаешь, что перестал быть хозяином своей жизни и лишился самого главного - inner backbone и своей независимости, пупупу…

Сегодня разбираем статью на тему FRANTIC! cleaning. В конце пдф 2 странички с вокабуляром и пояснением.

Does it ring a bell for you? I tend to feel much better when my house is tidy. It helps me tune into studying or working when all the discarded items are in their rightful places (otherwise this clutter runs on a loop in my head), there is no dust on the surfaces, no piling dishes or mounting laundry and there is delicate scent from an aroma diffuser in my rooms. However the insight into the process of cleaning the house is not that nice as opposed to the result (it may even tip you over the edge when you fathom you’re bogged down with all the household commitments). The looming clean-up doesn’t seem a nice way to pass my time since you should set aside a few hours to get around to it but the outcome I yield from it is worth it. Two sides of the same coin 🤷‍♀️

It’s crucial to strike the balance (or even shift your stance) and prioritize family time over cleaning cause latter won’t chip away at your relationships or help you forge ties.
