Itâs that time of year again, though we donât blame you if you wish it wasnât. After all, darker mornings, darker evenings. Colder days, colder nights. And that really is, to say the least, but donât panicâwe here at Tumblr have one or two tricks up our sleeve. Allow us to demonstrate.
Weâve partnered with wellness brands, creators, yogis, and mental health gurus to bring you this yearâs Holiday Blues campaign. It may be the holiday season, but for some, this is a time to endure, not enjoy. We hope our small acts of self-care can help to make a big and important difference. Itâs not hard to feel overwhelmed right now, after all, what with an ongoing pandemic, climate anxiety, and an economic crisis. It is, in short, a lot. And thatâs without the annual endurance that is SAD, otherwise known as Seasonal Affective Disorder.
But where self-care can feel like a burden of time, energy, and money, Tumblr is bringing these small acts of kindness straight to you: for very little time, very little energy, and without spending a dime.
It could not be simpler: simply turn up, and we will do the work. Over the next six weeks, right here on Tumblr, we have gathered a few friends to host live classes: mindfulness exercises, playlists, interactive quizzes, fitness classes, and maybe even a dance party.
Mindful Mondays: Some morning meditations with Heal Haus. Did we mention itâs live?
Wellness Wednesdays: Mood-boosting tips, tricks, and playlists.
Flex Friday: Let's get those endorphins flowing with our friends at obé Fitness. All levels are welcome!
Self-Care Sunday: Where writing meets dancing⊠and it all leads to self-discovery.
Thereâs always a little time for a little self-love.
Showing up is the hardest bit. We will gladly take it from there.
No stress, whatever the weather. We hope you enjoy it as much as we will!
Your healing journey, your way. Attend the classes that make you feel a little better. Make it to every class, make it the same class each week, or make it just one, or two, or three⊠you do you, the way you want to!
And last, but by no means leastâŠ
Like! Share! Be there! Weâve got the very best vibes to spread across the dashboard, and we need your help. Help us beat the holiday blues by using #holidayblueswithtumblr: share Mondayâs meditations, a tip or trick from Wellness Wednesday, or the feel-good from Flex Friday.
