🛌
If you are passionate about your hip mobility and amazing sleep, please, SLEEP ON THIS. We have been together for probably two years. And I don’t give a shit how goofy she looks. She changed my life. I don’t have any back pain and I don’t have any hip pain. I do other things to work on those issues, but SHE is the biggest contributor to the solution.

Bad sleep is hell and it will ruin you if you let it, so don’t be afraid of becoming a high-maintenance sleeper!! I am an expert level “hard time falling and staying asleep” sleeper and here is what has helped me get a full nights sleep pretty consistently:
For my fellow side/back combo sleepers:
-A knee pillow so your hips and legs don’t collapse on each other. It makes laying on your side so much more comfortable I’ve become highly dependent on it. Travel hack: use an airplane neck pillow instead because these are not easy to pack (I wish😭😭) it’s not the same but it’s better than nothing
-a flat memory foam pillow so your neck is not tilting in a crazy direction. Pillow preferences are very personal so this might not work for you but if you have neck pain this might be why.
- a throw pillow to hug, or any smaller pillow (or large stuffed animal if it’s soft!) to keep your shoulders from collapsing in on each other
For the light sensitive:
- i like this sleep mask because it doesn’t press up against your eyes and it blocks out everything
Ok there’s more but I feel bad creating a super long post to scroll past for those who dont need this so I will make a pt.2 🙏🏼

Might sound like the most obvious thing in the world but over the past month i’ve attempted to get as much sleep as possible and it’s changed my life. I thought i could run on 6 hours. I can not. Sometimes you’re an 8 hour person. You need to own that. I am happier, quicker, more positive. Yeah maybe I am missing out on anything cool happening between the hours of 10:30pm and 6:30am midweek. But who cares!!! I am rested!

Wendy’s Subway was one of the first "third places" I stumbled into after moving to NYC. It’s tucked away like some secret lair, and it's so beautiful in that "this-doesn't-fit-anywhere-else" way. It does so much, you can't really explain what it is. So I just call it a third place. You know, the kind of spot you go when you don’t want to hit a bar (because I don't drink) or pay for something (because... money). I go there to read, flip through a zine on some obscure political issue, or dive into a bi-weekly poetry writing event. It's so freakin' quiet and it'll let your brain take a nap. Do yourself a favor and go. Find community here. But check their website for hours/events first.

IDK why more people don't do this. Too Good To Go is an app that helps cut down on food waste. You basically grab a "surprise bag" of unsold food from restaurants, bakeries, or grocery stores for super cheap (like $4.99 for a whole bag!). It's filled with stuff that would've gone to waste (like it's expiring soon). You just reserve a bag, pick it up, and you're good to go. Honestly, I've scored some amazing deals. The video linked explains it well. Heads up though—depending on where you are and the timing, some bags might not be great, but if you do your research, it’s totally worth it.
