❀ doodling is good for my mental health! ❀

Hello lovelies!! I have been super overwhelmed for the last week....

I took a break from posting for the last few days, but I am back!

The universe has a sick sense of humor, this whole last week it has been hilarious. Tons of car troubles, work drama, my house looks like a small army of frat boys live here (maybe that is what I am raising?!?!?!), a couple situations that have really tested my parenting skills, and on and on and on.....

So...instead of posting this week (which I am kicking myself for now), i spent my time unfucking my house, doodling and binge watching/listening to Grey's Anatomy/True Crime Podcasts. I am determined to work on my time management skills, this includes carving out quality "me" time.



I figured I would share my doodles with you guys! I am no artistic genius but doodling really wakes my brain up and calms me.

Music/Singing, scrubbing walls and exploring nature has a similar effect.....

What helps you recenter?? What do you do for stress relief??

You really need me time girlie! Especially with all those rascals, a job and all your computer business.

For me walking is total chillness. And treating myself for breakfast outside the house with a newspaper.

I hope you get a little bit more grip on it all this week girlie. Hugz

Doodle magic! Working out helps me clean the cobwebs from my brain.

Wow, it's really cool and beautiful arts

Taking time for yourself when life is crazy can be the key to feeling better mentally. Your doodles look fun! I do the same thing if I am stressed and need a break from life for a little while. And binge watching some good tv can help to get into the story line for a bit and distract yourself from the craziness of life. Take care of yourself as much as you can and enjoy life.

That was beautiful ^^

well I like to go for a run. and now I'm having this new habit of night Jogging with one of my frinds, and when I'm too lazy I just take a shower to relax.

Sometimes writing helps also, especially poetry. It worked for me several times.

Art and creative thinking helps me re-center. Doodling, as you have done here, shows a creative explosion. Doodling with a purpose is almost the same as a gesture sketch where a fleeting idea or thought is captured and can be studied and re-worked to perfection. I have followed and upvoted. I find creative thinking fascinating!

Good idea. I have to try this.
When im stressed i often go running.
Also lately i do stuff with my littl girl, this gives me back lots of energy.
Work can be annoying and hard.
