It's wild blueberry season in Sweden and I've been picking and eating my fill everyday from the forest behind my house! The entire forest floor is covered in wild blueberry bushes and the tangy taste is so cosmic, I had to paint them✨ Photos of the berries I picked!

Important note- You should take rest if you need it! We as a society need more rest than we can afford under the current system. That being said, I wanted to encourage us to live our best lives, spend time meaningfully, and achieve our goals in the short-term! Sometimes the activities I thought were restful like lying on the couch and scrolling on my phone didn’t actually make me feel any more rested. When I got up to go for a walk or pulled out a hobby even when I was tired, I ended up having way more energy than I expected at the start.

I’m the biggest advocate there is for rest and self care- we don’t need to be productive or push ourselves so hard, but it’s also good to balance that with motivation and doing the things in life that matter to you. You may never fully feel 100% ready or rested, so let’s practice being brave and not being afraid of our tiredness! ☺️✨

And that’s why it takes me 3 hours to get a 15-minute chore done. 😆
