Eat Ur Greens 🥗
Eating your greens that include avocados (for some of us), is quite important for a variety of healthy reasons.
Green vegetables have incredible health benefits and we are listing at least 5 reasons why they might be worth you adding them to your plate.
1. They protect your medulla.. your brain which essentially makes you think about better things in your life instead of things that probably no longer serve you!
2. Greens make your skin glow! They support skin health and promotes 'healthy' ageing of your skin through the vitamins they contain.
3. Eating your veggies promotes mental health and improves your productivity and emotional wellbeing therefore.
4. Incorporating greens into your diet inevitably also makes you less full of BS as it boosts and supports your digestive and immune systems, as well as cleansing your body from toxins and other digestive irregularities.
5. They're GREEN! Green is good! It's positive! It's healthy!
And it makes your plate look colourful!
that's why you must EAT YOUR GREENS! 💚

UTI prevention ❤️🩹
The saying 'too much happiness is followed by sorrow' might have started after a night of fun was had and the person woke up the next day with the most annoying burning pain ... down there ⁉️
A UTI is a urinary tract infection that can show up in a range of uncomfortable, painful symptoms like:
🚻 burning sensations when you pee
🚻needing to use the bathroom more frequently
🚻pain in your lower abdomen
... and in some instances finding traces of blood in your urine.
Factors that act as contributors to these conditions can be anything from using especially unsanitary public bathrooms, not drinking enough water and believe it or not; not using the bathroom when you need to go.
This and other causes such as unsafe intercourse practices can be prevented by:
💦 Avoiding using dirty public bathrooms.
💦 Keeping hydrated and drinking plenty of water.
💦 Consuming preventative supplements such probiotics
And for the love of everything that's is GOOD (and healthy;
DON'T HOLD IN WHAT YOUR BODY WANTS TO LET GO OF! especially for long periods!

The Drama of Trauma ⛑️
Trauma is our response to dramatic and negative experiences, impacting our physical and mental well-being.
Goodisnyc explores key practices to help manage triggers post-trauma, fostering healing for both the physical and emotional aftermath.
1. The safest space starts with those around you. Loved ones who can be able to surround you and nurture your healing process.
2. Another important part of 'getting back to normal' is to feel your feelings. To not ignore or attempt to escape reality.
3. Understanding the uniqueness of the experience and acknowledging that it might take some time to navigate your emotions, as there is no right or wrong way to heal, feel or grieve.
4. You may want to prioritise moments alone and self-care practices that may promote healing, i.e meditation, walks in nature, etc
5. Breathe. Just keep breathing.
Trauma can be challenging to address as trauma often leaves us in disbelief about the event and its effects.
Understand that in time, everything is going to be okay. Healing is a process.

Trauma Bonds 🩹
inn good #mentalhealth ⚕️
Can we normalize seeing red flags as red and not orange? From the very beginning of any relationship, we should be cautious of certain patterns that might disrupt the stability and peace of mind we've worked hard to build.
A trauma bond is an unhealthy emotional attachment to someone who causes abuse—physical, emotional, or sexual. Signs of traumatic bonds include justifying the abuse, making excuses for the perpetrator, and ignoring your intuition.
In this cycle of isolation and continued abuse, you may start to lose yourself—your personality, identity, and all the progress you've made.
For your mental stamina, consider the growth and progress you've made to be the person you've evolved into; before tolerating any toxic BS. From partners, friends or sometimes family.

Non-stick or Carbon Steel for Cooking? 🍽️
Some things to consider when buying certain cookware. In topic, pans.
Particularly carbon-steel vs non-stick pans.
When it comes to choosing between carbon steel and non-stick pans, there are some important factors to keep in mind.
While both types of cookware are ideal; understanding the differences can help you decide which pan is best suited for your kitchen.
Non-Stick Coating vs. Seasoning
Non-stick pans come ready to use with a durable, chemical coating that prevents food from sticking. Carbon steel, on the other hand, requires a seasoning process, where a small amount of high-smoke-point oil is heated to create a "naturally non-stick" surface.
Cleaning Differences
One of the benefits of high-quality non-stick pans is their easy cleaning. A bit of dish soap and the soft side of a sponge are all you need. Carbon steel is different; similar to cast iron, it doesn’t usually require soap and water. Most of the time, you can simply wipe it down with a clean paper towel after cooking.
Other factors to look into are the differences in heat conductivity and what each pan is capable of cooking.
Ultimately, both these cookware options complement each other and deserve a place in your kitchen as they serve different purposes, from high-heat searing to gentle sautéing.
Consider what tasks you need your pans to perform best.Having both options on hand ensures you're always ready for any recipe!

What happens when you decide 'no smoking'? 🚭
What Happens When You Decide to Stop Smoking?
Surely at your big age of being able to READ, you know that certain habits have... certain effects. In that same breath, suddenly stopping said habits can also have some effects. Did you know that the positive effects of quitting smoking begin almost immediately? For instance, less than 30 minutes after your last cigarette, your blood pressure starts returning to normal.
Here’s a quick rundown of what else you can expect:
- Improved circulation: Within two weeks, your blood flow begins to improve, making your extremities warmer and reducing the risk of clots.
- Better complexion: After about a month, your skin starts to regain elasticity and a healthier glow. Wrinkles might even soften.
- Improved breathing: Coughing and shortness of breath typically reduce as your lungs clear themselves of mucus and debris.
- Increased lung function: Between three and nine months, your lung capacity could improve by up to 10%, helping you breathe easier.
- Reduced risk of heart attack: A year after quitting, your risk of a heart attack is half that of a current smoker.
- Reduced risk of lung cancer: A decade after your last cigarette, your risk of developing lung cancer drops to about half that of someone who still smokes.
While the positives are undeniable, quitting can also bring some challenges. You might experience withdrawal symptoms like irritability, anxiety, or difficulty concentrating as your body adjusts. Some people gain weight as their appetite and sense of taste return, and cravings can make the first weeks tough.
Ultimately, quitting smoking—or any habit—starts with a decision. But it has to be a decision that resonates with *you*. If you’re not quitting for yourself, for reasons you deeply identify with, it’s easy to lose momentum. So, whether it’s for your health, loved ones, or future adventures, ensure your reason feels personal. Because with every choice to quit, you’re also choosing to heal.

White Noise is actually... Rainfall 🌧️💧
What’s white noise? It is listening to rainfall. It really is.
A day of especially heavy rain masks other sounds, creating a consistent background that promotes relaxation, reduces stress, and even improves sleep quality. There’s something deeply meditative about rain — it pulls you into the present moment, grounding you in the sensory experience of nature. The rhythmic patter on the roof or windows can slow your racing thoughts and invite mindfulness.
Rain isn’t just water falling from the sky; it’s a moment of serenity waiting to be embraced. Stand in the rain, stand by your balcony, or simply watch from your window — and feel the mental fog lift. The cool drops on your skin, the fresh scent in the air, the soft sounds all around you — they unlock a sense of cleansing and quiet rejuvenation. Let the rain wash over you, and notice how your mind finds calm.

Stoopp digging into your ear! It's REALLY bad...👂🏽
You don't have to clean your ears! Stop digging into your ear?! It’s actually bad to use cotton earbuds to clean your earwax. In fact, you don’t need to clean your ears at all—because they clean themselves.
Earwax isn’t dirt—it’s your body’s natural defense, trapping dust and bacteria before they can go deeper. Using cotton buds can push wax further into the canal, sometimes impacting it against the eardrum and causing discomfort or even hearing issues.
Instead of obsessing over wax removal, focus on minimizing buildup. Extended use of earphones and earpieces can trap moisture and block airflow, leading to more wax production. You can gently wipe the outer ear with a damp cloth, but never insert anything into the ear canal.
Can you believe how many times we’ve been told to use these “cleaning” tools that actually cause harm? It’s time to leave the cotton buds behind and trust your ears to do their job.

Hoarding might be blocking you from actually being an aesthetic Collector.🍾
Now is having a large collection and pool of wine corks aesthetic? Or is it hoarding? Well, J.C. Le Roux thinks it's aesthetic—and their visitors might agree, as it adds to the ambience at their winery.
The difference lies in intent and order. Collecting is purposeful. It’s about curating with care—items are chosen, displayed, and often tell a story. Whether it’s vintage records, postcards, or yes, wine corks, collecting reflects identity and appreciation.
Hoarding, however, is driven by anxiety and fear of letting go. It’s often disorganized and overwhelming, with no clear reason why items are kept. The result? Spaces become suffocating, not expressive.
So next time you find yourself keeping that stack of old magazines or every candle jar you've ever used, pause. Ask yourself: Why am I keeping this? Is it adding meaning or value—or just creating clutter and blocking room for new, more sensible things to enter your life..
