Cacti

Sometimes, the stress of everyday’s life gets to us and we find ourselves feeling overwhelmed and exhausted.

Then you might complain a little, and whine a little more.. BUT how often do you stop to appreciate those little things in life?

In life there are things that make us happy but we take them for granted, the things that make you feel good like a great cup of coffee or a long conversation with a close friend or a walk with a your loved ones.

Today it was all about basking under the warm afternoon sun.

Cacto

Finally it was not a grey regular swedish winter day, though it was -11C but I could feel the sun rays on my face.

Over to something completely different, I’ve gotten a bit obsessed with cactuses… I have many of them at home in different sizes and shapes… Hahaha maybe because they remind me of my homeland. Still palm trees are my favourites but cactuses starting to catch up.

Plants add oxygen to the air which has a calming effect. There are a lot of succulent plants that can be grown in your home, and cactuses are actually great plants for beginners. So I purchased myself that BABY cactus on my way home.

In the end of the day; I want to say THANK YOU to everyone tries to put a smile on my face 🙂

We’ve all experienced negative moods – whether it’s feeling feeling sad after receiving some bad news or feeling lost and depressed. such feelings impact on how we think.

So do you need an emotional lift? Or need to blow off some steam after a stressful day?

A workout at the gym or a walk can help. Physical activity stimulates various brain chemicals that may leave you feeling happier and more relaxed. You may also feel better about your appearance and yourself when you exercise regularly, which can boost your confidence and improve your self-esteem.

Adding more cardio to your life will boost your productivity, rev your energy, and turn you into an unstoppable success machine.

Exercise has another vital role, It signals the release of several key hormones, including serotonin, the famed mood booster; dopamine, which affects learning and attention; and norepinephrine, which influences attention, perception, motivation, and arousal.

Yesterday night I prepared my gym clothes and sat my alarm clock and decided to join again the BodyFit class which was instructed by David and Jamie.

Exercise always affected my level of happiness, and I feel the  rushing through. what a JOY 🙂

If you would love to hear more on how exercise and happiness work together, feel free to ask questions or share your thoughts.

Good evening my oldies!!

Today was another holy moly cold day, -8C but it feels like -14C, hahahaha and my fingers were gonna fall off (I wore gloves with sheep fur inside) and my toes suffer as well, they were freezing to death even with two woollen socks.

Still the winter lights can be so attractive to take photos and to enjoy the magical sky.

I went with my partner to look for Canon Cameras as I’m thinking seriously to buy one, then we couldn’t resist buying some flowers and tulips for our house.

Now at home eating hot food and enjoying the company of my cats while watching a movie and drinking some Green Tea with Spearmint  – Kusmi Thé Nanah à la menthe – which we got from the “Tehuset JAVA”.

Puss Puss and good night! ❤
