YOU FEEL LIKE GETTING OUT OF THE HOUSE AND GOING FOR TRIPS ALL ALONE, SPENDING TIME WITH YOURSELF AND RELAXING AT A COFFEE HOUSE! THERE ARE FEW BASIC TRAVEL TIPS THAT I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH YOU ALL FROM MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE. I'LL BE SHARING 5 SIMPLE AND VERY EASY STEPS FOR YOU TO BECOME A SOLO TRAVELER. 1} PLAN TRIPS TO PLACES WHICH ARE EASY FOR YOU TO COMMUTE     There are places which are highly crowded and might be very cliche, but get yourself easy with     people around you. Start with places which are crowded before going for unexplored expeditions. There might be definitely places to travel within 300 km from your place and you can go by a bus or a taxi. Eg: Mussorie, Shimla, Amritsar are very near from Delhi and easy to commute. 2} EXPLORE WHAT'S AROUND YOU The

SITTING ALONE AT HOME WITH INFINITE THOUGHTS ABOUT WHAT TO DO AND WHAT NOT TO BUT NOT DOING ANYTHING ON THE SPOT TO ACTUALLY MAKE THINGS EFFECTIVE BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE IT INSIDE US, THE ZEAL. ARE YOU ALSO FEELING THE SAME? THIS LOCK DOWN IS  BRINGING UP HUNDREDS OF QUESTION ABOUT WHAT WE ACTUALLY ARE AND WHAT WE ACTUALLY WANT TO DO. EVEN IF WE GET AN ANSWER IT'S SO HARD TO NOT THINK ABOUT WHAT WE ARE DOING FOR IT? WE'VE STARTED QUESTIONING OUR CAPABILITIES FOR THINGS THAT WE WANT TO BECOME. I CAN WRITE HERE ABOUT HOW PRODUCTIVE YOU CAN BE OR WHAT THINGS YOU CAN LEARN OR CREATE BUT FOR THAT YOU NEED TO GET YOUR ASS UP OF YOUR COZY SPOT AND DO THINGS. BUT AM HERE TO TELL YOU THAT YOU

IT'S ONLY ABOUT YOU WHEN PEOPLE LEAVE YOU FEEL TERRIBLE AND SAD YOU MIGHT DRAIN YOURSELF SO MUCH THAT YOU GO HALF DEAD.  PEOPLE LEAVE  BECAUSE THEY DO EVERYONE HAVE TO SOMEDAY..

YOU CAN'T CONTINUE BEING SAD FOREVER AND THERE'S SO MUCH THAT YOU CAN DO  IN YOUR LIFE.. NOTHING ENDS NOTHING DIES EVEN THE DEAD ARE REBORN THAT'S HOW IT GOES. YOU HAVE TO KEEP MOVING ON WE DWELL OURSELVES IN NEW HABITS TO RELIVE.. RELIVE  TO MOVE ON FROM PAST AND CREATE NEW IN PRESENT. BUT SOMETIMES WE CARRY FEW THINGS FROM THE PAST WITH US TILL OR LAST FOR US TO REMIND WHAT WE'VE COME THROUGH WHAT WE'VE LOST WHAT WE HAVE NOW. EVERYONE IS LIVING THEIR OWN LIVES WITH DIFFERENT CHARACTERS SUPPORTING THEM TO EITHER FALL OR GROW OR JUST TO LEARN. BUT FOR YOUR LIFE YOU'VE TO KEEP MOVING ON

EXPRESS IT Emotional Hygiene is probably  something that took time for me to understand. Our emotions is a thing and they are part of our body,  We often just ignore them. Emotions are considered a free sample with a  human body which is just used  because it's for free! But actually it's our emotions that makes us. It makes us feel every little detail of our lives and help us to live. Emotion is important to recognize, If you feel sad be sad, If you're happy be happy Angry, irritated, excited or anything you want to be just feel it! Expressing emotions is  something that make you  feel about emotions more. The moment when you let go of a feeling, that's the best part of emotions. Not being aware what  emotional hygiene is  a problem, Not recognizing your emotions is a problem You should be aware about it and express it as much as you can. It's a lesson that I learned with time, No

There's no harm going to a gym or aspiring to be fit, but if that leaves you in a hole starving and degrading yourself, then whatever you'll do  you won't ever be satisfied with yourself. Being body positive is actually being positive about yourself, About your size, shape and everything that you own. In this quarantine I decided w
