    “Hit the gym” is the default advice given to anyone looking to improve themselves or get over a tough time, but it has really made a difference in my mood and energy levels. For a long time, I also thought “what’s so special about avocado on toast?”, but it actually is a pleasant combination.

    Oh, and I swear by those Laneige lip masks for lip care. I just use it anytime my lips are chapped and it doesn’t dry them up even more afterwards.

      +1 for the Laneige overnight lip mask. That stuff is like magic. Actually your whole list, and I will add yoga. Yoga does really help me to stay fit and supple.

      I haven’t been able to work out due to a back injury and I am definitely noticing the mental effects

        Have you tried working with a physical therapist to figure out a routine you can do? I have a few injuries (torn labrum in both shoulders and torn meniscus) and I’ve been able to modify things so I don’t exasperate them.

        I’m sorry to hear that and I wish you a quick recovery <3

        Are you able to walk? I find that even going for a walk outside improves my mood when I don’t feel well enough for a full workout.
