Mayur has suggested that I share the schedule I am trying to establish in the new lifestyle we are all trying to adapt to. So, I thought this Wednesday, instead of Mini-Story Completion, we can all share our schedules to inspire each other. Maybe someone will see in your schedule an activity that will inspire them to add it to their own schedule.
I will initiate this with my own (tentative) schedule. You can share yours in the comments!
I try to stick to it but it changes slightly from day to day. Especially my study sessions are interrupted by constant internet-scrolling but I am working on it and getting better.
5-6: Wake up
6-7.30: Prayers, Meditation and Blog-Reading
7.30-8.30: Exercise (now HIIT Cardio or Yoga on alternate days) or Reading
8.30-9.45: Breakfast and Family-Calling etc.
9.45/10-1: Study (exercise is here if I am working out with friends)
1-2: Friend-Calling or Internet Surfing
2-4: Study (also Reading if I have not done it earlier)
4-5: Nap
5-6: Study
6-7.30: Dinner and something to watch
7.30-8.30: Meeting
8.30-10: Random Stuff
10-11: Sleep
A wonderful idea! Inspires me to do more stretching exercises. Be well and be safe.

My form of meditation for five minutes, which is really just concentrating on my breathing. Then I play this silly game called Home Design. The morning challenge earns you “money” to help with the other challenges, so I find this gives me some sort of satisfaction, to complete this. Then I read blogs and emails, make breakfast and blog. I clean up, make bed, and then do some daily reading from these two books meant to calm me and get me in the right direction. Shower. Straighten house and bedroom. Write (book I’m working on) take dog for a walk. Twice a week after her walk I run to target or market. Read or quiet stuff till about 530ish. Make dinner/eat/clean up. Play games or watch tv with family, wash up….

Sounds like a pretty good schedule, Betul! Since my son is only four months old, my days are very fragmented and any sense of “routine” I once had is on hold. However, I do try to make time for reading, writing, and watching Seinfeld each day, no matter how small the session! 🙂

I can see it will be harder with a baby. Just do the best you can. How is your son doing?

I generally love routines. I don’t think I ever lived without any kind of routine activity. I always have to have something. But right now, it is harder to establish it, so don’t be hard on yourself. My schedule is my ideal, but I can’t stick to it 100%. The first step is just making a schedule. Going with it consistently needs a bit of time.

Good going Betul. You have been in my thoughts and prayers.
Can I please make a couple of suggestions?
After meditation don’t read blogs, enjoy the peace and joy. Do this after breakfast
Last thing we should do before sleeping is: Pray/Meditate/Spiritual Reading etc.
I am not quarantined: I have been given more time and space to introspect and explore 😊
Hope all is well with your family in Turkey.
Love and blessings
