Happy New Year! Not sure I manage to get a stress free 2025, but here's to hope!

I agree. You shouldent need goals. if you dont have goals for this year that is fine, just keeping on what you did last year is very allowed.
@LunaciaBooks 2 күн бұрын
Absolutely! As someone said on Instagram: "Just a little reminder for the New Year that you don’t have to make huge resolutions or big proclamations. You can start the new year gently and softly by setting some sweet intentions, take one little step at a time while moving towards them and take each day as it comes."

I am excited to see what the year brings for you. On mindfulness, I think it means different things to different people, it's all about finding the balance that works for the person if that makes sense. Happy New Year x

No, I don't have the mental capacity to rent it out. By far too much with everything that comes with renting out, with taxes, rules, regulations, fixing, etc. It's on the other side of Norway.

It's called Takenoko, and is such a fun game! You basically cultivate land to grow bamboo, and then there's a gigant panda bear that goes around and munches up the bamboo that has been planted. It's slightly complicated, but so much fun once you get the hang of it.

There isn't actually caramel in the coffee, it's just the description of the coffee's flavour notes. One of the things I love about proper, high quality light roasted coffee, is that it doesn't just taste bitter and burnt, like the industrial and dark roasts taste like. I have an AeroPress and my own coffee beans at work (we have a grinder), as I can't drink the automat coffee. It tastes horrible! 😅
