It’s a bright and beautiful sunny day a cool breeze and the sun shining down warmly on your face. You go for a drive. Bikini/beachwear on,you grab a cooler some drinks maybe some lunch. You park the car and you open your door and head for the trunk you grab your stuff and maybe you brought a dog. So you harsh your dog and start walking. You head for the sandy hill you go through the little bit of trees and past the picnic tables, the bbq grills and the bathrooms. You getting closer and closer to the hill. Now for the real exercise you make sure you have everything in the right position and start your climb. Once you reach the top there’s no going back. Fighting the sand and using all your leg muscles you reach the top. From here it gets easier you start towards the beach but before you can go to the water you have to find a place for your stuff. Usually you have little hills that are nice and private as most people usually choose to be closer to the water. You get situated and head towards the water. You feel the wind blowing in your face and you can see the waves crashing and the seagulls flying above. You dip your feet in the water. It’s ice cold but it feels amazing. After about two seconds the water gets warmer and you go even further out and the water starts hitting your face and getting you soaked. But you feel like a kid. You splash in the water and run your fingers through the water. You watch as wave after wave approaches you and you looks in the water to see the sand at the bottom. You look to see if you can spot any little animals. Whether it’s jellyfish,sand dollars and even crab,sometimes little fishies. It depends on the season. With ever step you take you feel the salt from the water touch your legs. Seaweed shells and other things picked up from the water brush up against your legs too. You stand in the water and stare at the bright blue sky with few clouds and the sun hitting your face. You feel at peace here. As beach lovers do.

I think people tend to assume their mood is what will improve after trying coping techniques, however, your mood is not the full extent of your mental health, and it doesn’t totally define whether or not a technique has helped you. When disorders cause symptoms like chronic emptiness and low mood, it’s worthwhile to pay attention to your body and your abilities to look for signs of improvement, which can then have an affect on your mood in the long term.
No drama. Just vibes. Anyone causing my body to react with anxiety is blocked

Hello! Do you want to learn Malayalam but don't know where to start? Then I've got the perfect resource list for you and you can find its link below! Let me know if you have any suggestions to improve it. Here is what the resource list contains;

A follower of mine asked me what are some realistic goals when you’re learning languages but before giving you 100 examples, i want to mention that you can have daily, weekly, monthly or/and yearly goals. If you get easily distracted and need motivation, set goals for each category; however, if you can focus and be motivated for a longer period of time, you might not need daily or/and weekly goals.
Also, the numbers/minutes/hours are an example, you can change them according to your time, resources, motivation etc.
