Hello and welcome,
I’m someone who has been struggling with questions, confusion, sadness, and a deep sense of emptiness. If you’ve ever felt this way, you’ll understand how overwhelming it can be.
12 habits in 12 months
That’s why I’ve decided to start this blog—12 Habits in 12 Months. It’s my personal experiment in healing—a way to see if small, consistent habits can bring a sense of purpose and joy back into my life. Each month, I’ll focus on developing one new habit, something small and manageable, and document my experience along the way. My hope is that by focusing on one habit at a time, I can build discipline, find clarity, and maybe even rediscover joy. I know these habits might seem simple, but when you’re struggling with mental health, even the smallest tasks can feel overwhelming. I want to start somewhere, and I am sharing this journey in case it resonates with someone else who feels as lost as I do.
12 new experiences
In addition to these habits, I’ll also be stepping outside of my comfort zone by trying one new thing every month. I’m still figuring out exactly how to define it, but my goal is to push myself to embrace something different each month—whether it’s a new hobby, a life experience, or a small challenge. I want to create new memories and experiences that can bring some joy or value to my life, even as I navigate the emptiness and sadness I’ve been feeling.
Habit #1: Gratitude Journaling(January)
For my first habit, I chose something I’ve read a lot about: gratitude journaling. They say gratitude can transform your perspective. I started on January 1st, and for the past month, I’ve been writing down things I’m grateful for every day. I’ll share more about what I learned and how it impacted me in my next post.
If you’re curious, or if you’re navigating your own journey towards healing, I invite you to join me. Let’s explore the power of small habits together, one step at a time. Whether you’re here to follow along, try these habits yourself, or just feel a little less alone, I’m glad you’re here. Thank you for reading.
