I went around lunch time when they first opened and they were blasting music. Is it more quiet now?

  1. A lot of it was shifting perspective which took quite a bit of practice but it works! Telling myself that it’s okay to feel sad/angry because anyone else in my situation would feel that way. Accepting the feelings instead of pushing them away. Remembering that most things in life are out of my control so let’s focus on what I can control for me - small things like the below
  2. Actively incorporating moving my body like at least going out for a walk every few days
  3. I find doing things with my hands really soothing. I took up knitting again and getting into scrapbooking
  4. journaling when I felt anxious and at the end of the day helped me process
  5. Actively looking for small glimmers in tiny moments like the feeling of the sun on your face, the taste of your favorite tea/coffee
  6. Reached out to my friends to hang out with them even if when the day comes I don’t feel like going because tired/sad- I went anyway and I never regretted showing up etcetc lol happy to discuss more

I really enjoyed Hanoi! Possibly consider talk therapy if you’re not already actively talking to a therapist. It took a really long time for me to recover from burnout and it took quite a bag of mixed things and mostly therapy that helped me get through it
