Drowning Mentally?
Hi Meta Family, sometimes life is overwhelmingly exhausting, and it can make you feel like you’re drowning mentally. Have you ever felt this way? These emotions can often leave you sleepless and unable to complete daily tasks such as taking care of the home, eating healthy, exercising etc.
Below, we want to share some resources for necessary self-care such as sleeping well and keeping our surroundings clean, especially during the times we are struggling the most.
Lorem ip“Preeminent neuroscientist and sleep expert Matthew Walker provides a revolutionary exploration of sleep, examining how it affects every aspect of our physical and mental well-being. Charting the most cutting-edge scientific breakthroughs, and marshalling his decades of research and clinical practice, Walker explains how we can harness sleep to improve learning, mood and energy levels, regulate hormones, prevent cancer, Alzheimer’s and diabetes, slow the effects of aging, and increase longevity. He also provides actionable steps towards getting a better night’s sleep every night.”sum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

“If you’re struggling to stay on top of your to-do list, you probably have a good reason: anxiety, fatigue, depression, ADHD, or lack of support. For therapist KC Davis, the birth of her second child triggered a stress-mess cycle. The more behind she felt, the less motivated she was to start. She didn’t fold a single piece of laundry for seven months. One life-changing realization restored her sanity—and the functionality of her home: You don’t work for your home; your home works for you.”
“Maybe You Should Talk to Someone is revolutionary in its candor, offering a deeply personal yet universal tour of our hearts and minds and providing the rarest of gifts: a boldly revealing portrait of what it means to be human, and a disarmingly funny and illuminating account of our own mysterious lives and our power to transform them.”

For tips on keeping clean house while feeling down
Let’s face it, it’s not an easy task to keep a tidy home when you’re feeling sad or depressed. This is because these emotional states often lead to low energy, lack of motivation and feelings of overwhelm.
However, creating a clean and organized space can also help improve your mental well-being. With some of these tips, cleaning may become less of a daunting task that you’re trying to avoid.
Break tasks into manageable steps: focus on just one small thing at a time to avoid feeling overwhelmed. For example, instead of “clean the kitchen”, aim for, “wipe down the counters”.
Set a timer: set a timer for 10-20 minutes, and just focus on getting something done during that time. Often, once you start, you’ll find it easier to continue.
Tidy as you go: to avoid feelings of overwhelm later, incorporate small habits throughout the day to keep your space clean without it feeling like a big task. For example, while you’re cooking, use down times to clean the dishes. This helps limit clutter in the space.
Use music or podcasts as motivation: using these while you clean can make the process feel less like a chore. Choose something uplifting or soothing that helps distract you and makes the task more enjoyable.
Focus on organization: sometimes organizing clutter is less exhausting than deep cleaning. If you’re unable to clean, focus on decluttering. This can immediately make a room feel tidier and less overwhelming.
