on a rainy sunday everyone wants to lay all day in bed and scroll on our phones until the end of times. eventhru it sounds nice, im gonna let you some easy and cozy ideas that, you must know, but maybe we never end up doing
1- do a facemask : i can be homemade, purchased at a pharmacy or beauty salon, it doesnr really matter. you can google what type of skin you have and concentrate on certain products or minerals that help and improve your own condition; theres lot of info that may help you (youtube videos, twitter threads, beauty websites)
2- read: put awat your phone for a dawn minute! i know it sounds pretentious, but trust me, your brain will thank u later. it doesnt have to necessarily be a looong book (sometimes our concentrration its not up to that), buy maybe a magazine, comic (?, even the newspaper may sound interesting; you do you.
3-paint yor nails: too girly? i would call it self caring. go on pinterest, tumblr, we heart it (it is still on?) and let your imagination and style guide you on the right path. no one really cares if it looks the same as the photo.
4- watch a movie/series: yes, your to-watch list has been stalking you for god knows how long and you keep putting it aside to watch your favorite series for the tenth time since 2013. who am i to blame you! we are all victims, but I encourage you to explore new content that, although at first it causes you rejection or does not dazzle you at the first episode, allows you to find new favorites after leaving your comfort zone.
5- do stretches from your bed: i suggest your bed because its the most comfortable option for a sunday, you could also do it on a mat on the floor. search and watch thousands of videos on youTube and let your body stretch again after 14 long hours.
alright, i hope this helps you. i think thats enough for today, gonna let you rest baby!
thanks for reading as always paz.
The sardonic, reductionist headline here could be "Scientists finally figured out why you get more colds in winter: bEcAuSe iT's CoLd!"—but the actual science involved here is both interesting, and potentially very relevant to everyday life and especially the immunocompromised:
It turns out the cold air itself damages the immune response occurring in the nose. [...] In fact, reducing the temperature inside the nose by as little as 9 degrees Fahrenheit (5 degrees Celsius) kills nearly 50% of the billions of virus and bacteria-fighting cells in the nostrils, according to the study published Tuesday in The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology. “Cold air is associated with increased viral infection because you’ve essentially lost half of your immunity just by that small drop in temperature,” said rhinologist Dr. Benjamin Bleier, director of otolaryngology at Massachusetts Eye and Ear and an associate professor at Harvard Medical School in Boston.
Want to avoid catching or spreading respiratory viruses like CoVid-19, RSV, influenza, or a common cold? Mask up, please, but also bundle up! Wrap up in a scarf, wear a balaclava, and just generally keep your face warm. There's no single magic solution, but that's not a reason to do nothing. Rather, it's a reason to take several simple precautions that help avoid the spread of disease and protect those around you. (I can't tell you how much "this isn't 100% effective so I shouldn't do it at all" frustrates me.)
Oh, and #knitblr? This is your time to shine.
