Never ending feeling of unfinished business
Do you ever feel like you can reach your goals and finally feel satisfied? I can only accomplish this when I’m eg. doing the dishes or another simple task. But for “larger goals” such as getting in shape / eating more right / tidy up more / etc., it never seems to have an ending. I think it’s because it’s about those small daily accomplishments rather than life-long things. I get the feeling now and then that I’m giving myself too much slack. I have to put myself together and get things DONE! … but … I don’t know. Sometimes it’s more nice to sit comfortably on the couch, drinking…

Life right now
We moved house recently to another part of town, one of the bigger cities in Denmark. The neighborhood is much nicer here, more quiet and the people who live here are nicer in general. The comfort in our new home is also better! It is an older building and the air is different (my sinuses are loving it). The new concrete type buildings are much more dry, the airflow is different and …yeah. Different! It’s nice to have a place to call our own. It’s been a but stressfull moving, getting used to the new house, decorating … painting… etc. So with all that my stress levels have been, to…

Taking it easy
It’s seriously hard not to be anxious with Covid-19, having an anxiety issue in the first place. So lately I have been trying really hard to be more calm. I’ve started with my mindfulness practice again, after having a break for a couple of weeks. My mind is weird in that way, that if I suddenly have “too much” to do, even if it is pretty low key things, I skip most things and only do the things I “feel like” doing. Mindfulness/mediation doesn’t have that immediate all the time when I do it… Social media is much more satisfying, even though there isn’t any reward what so ever to…

What’s happening (nothing)
Yo yo yooooo. I’ve been taking a small break – a lot has been going on lately. Not really, but in my head I haven’t been able to calm my self down. Covid-19 is giving me a lot of stress, and my sick-leave may be over soon due to my ‘commune’ wants me out job training. I have mixed feelings about this, but in the end I think maybe it’s a good thing that I test my capabilities a bit, and learn what limits my brain has now. It’s been almost 2 years since my injury, so maybe it’s a good thing that I get to go out amongst other…

Mindfulness – my experiences
I have tried getting on with mindfulness for a while, even before my injury. It has been a JOURNEY… I started with the app called “Headspace”, which was a great start. I had that going on for about 1-2 years, and payed for it to get the packages. At first, it was very challenging. It felt stupid just sitting there for 10-15 minutes, but after a while I started to notice it was easier for me to let go of some thoughts. I have also tried the “Waking up” app, because I got bored with Headspace, after so long I thought it was a bit repetitive. The Waking up app…

Food and stuff
I guess most of us know the “your body is your temple” saying. I came to realize this when I injured my head, and suddenly I couldn’t tolerate sugar or alcohol the same way as before. Once in a while I still try to eat a small bag of Haribo (a danish candy brand), but I always experience discomfort and headaches afterward. It doesn’t help that I am diagnosed with IBS and lactose intolerance either, I’ll admit! When I drank alcohol before my injury, I used to get that comfortable “buzz” and really enjoyed it. I used to drink beer a couple times a week, I found it gave me…

…Is anyone out there?
I have just discovered today that a LOT of “clicks” are coming from english-speaking countries! And other BIG news, in the last few weeks, I have received TWO comments. Whaaat! *party mode* My last project with my blog was my instagram account – not so much on there as I had hoped from my part. I guess my motivation has dropped – but now, after seeing some statistics – Wooow. Now I’m all geared up. So what has happened since the previous post? 1) Well, I’ve moved house (or into a new apartment) with my boyfriend. 2) I’ve started to read a lot more – yay!3) I’ve changed my diet…

Instagram! whaaaat
Jeg arbejder på at få en instagram op at køre, da det er lidt mere brugervenligt end at sidde foran en PC på nuværende tidspunkt for mig. En hjernerystelse kan stille mange begrænsninger, men ser det som en god ting, at jeg er begrænset på PC skærmtid, og kan prioritere lidt andre ting. 🙂 Jeg håber I vil læse med på instagram! Måske hvis det er en succes, så følger jeg op på facebook og youtube også… måske endda en podcast, hvem ved. Hvis der bare er én som får noget ud af at følge med, så vil jeg synes det har været en success at bruge min tid på…

Tiden går… og man glemmer nogle ting i det travle, inkl sin nyopstartede blog
Tiden går og klokken slår. Mit første indlæg handlede om processen i at finde en titel. Derefter skulle hele tiden jo også opsættes! Det var virkelig omstændigt, og fordi jeg har hvad der kan betegnes som 10 tommelfingre når det kommer til websider, så kom min søde kæreste mig til undsætning. Jeg valgte wordpress som udgiver, da det virker meget ligetil, og man ikke skal bøvle med så meget. Siden november, er der sket virkelig mange ting… Jeg er flyttet sammen med min kæreste (yay), og er blevet opsagt i mit job (yay). Det sidste kommer måske bag på nogen, men i mit tilfælde er det virkelig rart. Det var…

Første indlæg… testing testing
Det første indlæg har jeg dedikeret til at handle om hvor pokkers svært det er at oprette en blog. De fleste får det til at lyde så nemt. Det var egentlig også min første indskydelse – og jeg havde klare forventninger om at få alt oprettet i løbet af 15 minutter. Jeg måtte tro om, sikke et bøvl, sikke en skuffelse jeg fik – haha. Men det skulle ikke sætte en dæmper på min motivation! Det sværeste var bl.a. at få valgt et blognavn. Der skulle en hel brainstorm til, og da inspirationen ramte så kom alle mulige tilfældige navne som f.eks.: Stolekanten, Sofakartoflen (et ord jeg identificerer mig meget…
