    If he was, the routine would also involve an ice cold lake and vodka...

    Nah, not really. Beer is more of a drink after sauna, because it hydrates as well. (Yes the overall alcohol is a diuretic but beer as opposed to vodka.)

    After sauna you can maybe have a shot or two but that's just for a weekend sauna or something.

    Going to the sauna is hardly anymore special than taking a bath. In fact I'd argue that more Finnish households have saunas than bathtubs, although that is a guess. We have more saunas than registered cars.

    Pretty much every apartment, even studios, built after like 1990 has a sauna. Perhaps of the tiniest ones don't, but a small one small two-room apartment built after -95 definitely would. Mine does. And these are cheap government rentbuildings.

    There's no lake at my apartment building, so I just have to settle for a cool shower and/or sometimes standing on the balcony in the winter.

    And if you live in an apartment building that you don't have a personal sauna in, there's definitely one in your building still which you're allowed to reserve as a tenant, for like an hour or two a week, some for free some for like 2e/h.

        I set aside 20 minutes in the morning to journal. It's become sacred to me. It helps me clear my head and set my focus for the day.

          I read an interview with Jenna Jameson a million years ago. The interviewer asked what was in the future. She answered something about her career and then, "make myself cum every day, whether I needed it or not", and I think that is just about the greatest advice for anyone. I've rarely missed a day in at least 20 years.

                Im with you on unemployment unfortunately. Closing in on a year. Just read another we ware not going with you and have one active possibility (contact after resume). Which has almost where I have been constantly at since the spring. Was worse from just before the election through the winter though with spans of nothing return contact wise (outside of we are not moving forward with the role). I doubt I will find an ego death and I have nothing to quit but soda. Which aint happening.

                I just had two opportunities say that they won't be filling the positions at all, so that probably doesn't bode well...

                  I saw more of that before the spring. Since I have not as much and I was hoping things were getting better. I hope to not be getting feedback like that.

                    I have a few things I've picked up recently.

                    1. A couple of years ago I quit drinking coffee, so now I almost exclusively drink water. I find the water first thing in the morning is a brilliant way to wake up
                    2. In the evenings I go for a bike ride, giving me some fresh air, sunlight and exercise. Some nights I go for a 20 mile intercity route, some nights I just do an easy 5 mile route in town
                    3. After my bike ride I'll eat some ice cream, shower, then relax with a book in bed (my phone stays on my dresser and out of reach from the bed) before going to sleep

                    The right morning routine and evening routine really makes my days feel so much more fulfilling even if I haven't been particularly productive that day

                            Bruh...
                            If I get less than 7.5 hours sleep, I'm tired all day. But if I get more than 8.5 hours sleep, I'm also tired all day. There's the magic window of time in the middle where I wake up relatively refreshed.

                                    Yup post ride ice cream to as a treat to cool down and replenish sugar after sweating a bunch. I otherwise avoid treats/excessive sugar, but something about ice cream after an intense workout just is amazing

I find the water first thing in the morning is a brilliant way to wake up. It is actually the best thing every to do in the morning. A glass of water. I read some articles about that it helps nicely, softly to wake up the body and also to prepare the stomach. And obviously to be hydrated. I do the same. Glass of water (quite big one) + Vitamins C, Zinc
