I work late so usually im going to bed as soon as i get home but I def don't want to go to bed with the vibe if the work evening still with me.
Ive made a habit of getting a quick shower in to wash off the stress and in a clean pair of pajamas. I set up my evening YouTube video or a movie ive seen before-low stakes in terms of attention, its for background noise. Make some tea or make sure i at least have a glass of water and a small snack if i haven't eaten yet. Then I mosy my way to bed putting my dog to bed in his bed and take my cat upstairs to bed with me and get comfortable and kinda hope the sleep takes over in a timely manner.

I like to come home from work and eat dinner at like 5:30 go on a little walk Then I like to turn off all the harsh lighting and try not to listen to any sort of music higher than a certain BPM. And then I take a nice long shower and put my pjs on and either journal or read or play guitar. Usually end up falling asleep with the book in my hand so I have one of those little book nightlights that you clip onto the book itself so I don’t have to get up too much to turn off the lights. I don’t really go on my phone or check my messages as soon as I get out of the shower unless it’s to change the music I’m listening to (Ichiko Aoba or some soft jazz has been my favs recently). But whatever works for you! I find that winding down hours before sleep has always helped me so i don’t feel rushed in any way.

it’s always a bit different and a bit the same, i’m trying to be consistent so this is what i do.
work ends at around 5 p.m. so i’m home at 6. i usually get myself a little treat or go for a walk. then i walk my dog Freddie and then have tea with my family.
then this is the part where i’m not so consistent. if i have a show i’m currently into i’ll forget about everything and just watch it until it‘s midnight. so i’m trying not to do that. at around ten i’ll have a shower and do my skincare and stuff. then i just go to bed, read or watch something, maybe meditate.

On weekdays I finish work at 6:00 pm because I set my schedule to start at 10:00 am. Then I walk my dog Benny and try to squeeze in yoga for 20-40 minutes if I can manage to not be lazy. I usually eat dinner between 8:00 and 9:00 pm and then I play scent games with Benny if he’s being crazy and still has too much energy and I watch YouTube videos. I make sure the windows and doors are locked and turn off any lights, then I water floss, brush my teeth, take a hot bath, languish, wash and moisturize my face, turn on my heated blanket and get into bed by like… midnight or 1:00 pm usually. The weekends are pretty much the same without the working part

Find happiness in the little things. Bask in the sun rise, take a moment to people watch grocery shopping or a cafe. Go on drives to nowhere in particular with your favorite playlist blasting. Read plays to a stuff animal audience and really dramatize the characters.

I read a book about volcanos growing up and that stuck with me for suck a long time, then i read my grandpas old astrology book and i very much remember how upset i was when they announced Pluto wasn't classified as a planet anymore and i was set to be the one to give Pluto back its title. Now ironically I study marine science, and im currently in school to now look at underwater volcanos and hydro thermal vents, which have some similar chemical components to that of what is in space so i guess it balanced out.
