TODAY'S LEARNING
Self-Care Ideas

Take twenty minutes to tidy up.

Your mood may improve if you get rid of that mail pile, the shoe pile by the door, and the excess clothing in your wardrobe. Research have connected cluttered spaces to stress and a lack of self-control, particularly when it comes to food, which can be detrimental to your physical well-being.

Try snapping a photo of a messy area of your home, then devote 20 minutes to picking up. Take a 10-minute break when the timer goes off, or spend the entire day if you'd like. Replacing open-ended cleaning sessions with a timed window makes the chore less overwhelming, says Rachel Hoffman, author of Cleaning Sucks. Additionally, comparing the "before" and "after" pictures will make you feel accomplished.

Breathe like a yogi.

According to studies, practicing yoga breathing for twenty minutes might boost your mood and memory. Test out this different nostril technique: Make a L with your right thumb and first finger; take a deep breath; press the right side of your nose with your thumb to block your right nostril; exhale; inhale through your left nostril; block your left nostril and release the right; exhale; inhale. Repeat after switching sides.

Take it outside.

Being outside, especially when moving, improves mood, sharpens the mind, and leaves you feeling more at ease and giving. The stress hormone cortisol may also be lowered by spending time outside, according to clinical exercise physiologist Paul Innerd, Ph.D., of the University of Sunderland in the United Kingdom.

Plant something.

According to one study, adults who gardened had higher vegetable consumption rates than those who didn't. Furthermore, additional studies reveal that persons who work in the soil tend to be happier and healthier overall.

Donate your time.

People who volunteer have a purpose in life, which boosts their self-worth and reduces feelings of isolation. One study of folks with social anxiety found that those who lent a helping hand felt less anxious about social situations than those who didn’t.

WEEKLY ASTROLOGY

March 3: Venus in Aquarius square Uranus in Taurus

March 4: Moon enters Capricorn; Mercury in Pisces sextile Uranus in Taurus

March 5: Moon trine Jupiter

March 6: Moon trine Uranus and Neptune

March 7: Moon enters Aquarius; Sun opposes Lilith

March 8: Mercury in Pisces conjunct Neptune in Pisces

March 9: Mercury enters Aries; Moon enters Pisces; Mars in Aquarius square Uranus in Pisces

As Mercury comes together with Neptune, it floats our awareness into the spaces where everything exists as potential. It brings us back to our intuitive, creative, spiritual, and energetic selves. Similar to what happens when we meditate, discover spiritual truths, or hear whispers in the stillness, there is an expansion that occurs in these moments.

These experiences transform us. They let us in. They make us larger. They serve as a reminder that there are a lot of possibilities outside the boundaries of what we already know and who we think we should be. Additionally, they reassure us that life is a heavenly dance that upholds us at every turn.

POSITIVE NEWS OF THE DAY

Europe adopted a ‘historic’ law to restore nature

A landmark law that aims to reverse biodiversity loss in the EU has been approved by the European parliament amid fierce debate.

The nature restoration law will require EU nations to restore and protect wildlife on a fifth of their land and sea by 2030. It must now be approved by the EU Council before it can enter force.

Scientists have chronicled a catastrophic decline in nature in the EU, where 81% of habitats are deemed in poor shape. Nevertheless, the law has been contentious. Farmers protested against it, claiming it would increase bureaucracy and impact profits (other farmers say cheap foreign imports – not green policies – are the problem). Misinformation campaigns and right-wing politicians fuelled their ire, forcing the EU to weaken targets and loosen the language, creating loopholes.

Nevertheless, the law was welcomed by #RestoreNature, a coalition of charities comprising BirdLife Europe, ClientEarth, the European Environmental Bureau, and WWF EU.

“We are relieved that MEPs listened to facts and science, and did not give in to populism and fearmongering,” it said in a statement. “Now, we urge member states to follow suit and deliver this much-needed law to bring back nature in Europe.”
