newtines (new routines)

trauma can really fuck up a girl’s morning.

and by that i mean, there are pieces of your days that will be wrapped in grief, and those shots will beg for a chaser.

give yourself something small to hold onto, something kind that’s just for you, that can come around pretty regularly. slot in morning walks where morning texts may have been, make time you allocate to texting and calling friends you haven’t talked to in a while, make a new fun habit that signals bedtime to your brain. make a small promise to yourself and keep it.

*if you can’t keep it, make it smaller. i’m not a cop.
