Lack of sufficient physical activity can lead to several health problems, such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and even certain types of cancers. With …
We all live in a busy world, from our stressful jobs to our generally hectic schedules. How can professionals – from entrepreneurs and CEOs to interns and entry-level workers – stay focused even when amidst the chaos of work? We spoke with Pragito Dove about how meditation can unlock that focus. From relieving us of stress to inspiring a sense …
We’re nearly a month into the new year, and many of us have already added our resolutions and goals into our schedules… and promptly found that we’ve overstuffed our calendars. If you ever feel the strain of trying to squeeze in too much each day, you might wonder how you can finally make a schedule that works for you. How …
Things are so much simpler when you’re younger. You don’t have to think about paying bills or making appointments; even relationships are easier.

Who has time for self-care? I am a busy woman – I work as a tutor at my university, I am a content developer here at Petite2Queen, and I am conducting PhD research. My days are scheduled from 7 am to 9 pm, so it’s go-go-go for me. It’s a lot, but I don’t consider myself unique in this; there …
You’ve probably heard plenty of discussion around self-care and around work-life balance, but did you know that the two are actually closely related?

Here’s how you can tackle …

While “less is more” is certainly not always true, working to de-clutter your life will inevitably bring you more happiness and tranquility. De-Clutter Your Things I come from a family of packrats. Generation upon generation, my kin …
Self-care is so important, yet many of us don’t practice it enough, especially when we need it the most. How can you take care of #1 (that’s you!) even when you’re feeling burned out? Even when you’re so busy that just the thought of adding one more item to your to-do list stresses you out? We’ve all been there… and …
My name is Rachel, and I am a working PhD student. As with many (most?) college students, I have to work to financially support myself while I pursue my degree. And like many (probably most) working college students, I constantly feel as though there are not enough hours in a day to do it all (not to mention enough mental …
