I've hacked the Kindle Reading Challenge!

And I also have a fun new Digital Planner to to help you learn your cycle!

The Short of It

Last Week’s Podcast Episode- Diving into Your Wellness Journey with Sanny van Heteran

Today’s New YouTube Video- How I Track My Cycle to Plan More Efficiently

Getting to Know You, Getting to Know All About You…

Ok, what I actually mean by this is that we should be getting to know ourselves better, and specifically how are bodies and brains are operating during the different phases of our monthly cycles. It’s easy to look at an app and have it give you some general guidance on what’s going on, and that is no doubt helpful! But we are all bio-individual, and spending some time to track your specific tendencies can be so helpful, especially when it comes to planning!

In the video I released today on YouTube I talk all about the four different distinct phases our brains go through throughout the month and how we can keep track of whats happening in order to compare from cycle to cycle.

The Perpetual Cycle Journal is currently available for free to Patrons- patreon.com/livewelltogether

Or (as an early release to subscribers)- you can grab the journal from my digital shop right here. (Much more will be in the shop very soon!)

Kindle Challenge Reading Hack!

Ok, so I totally get this is cheating the system, but I don’t actually care! 😬😂😜

Every three months Kindle issues a new reading challenge to their loyal readers, which I am undoubtably one! I currently have a 267 day reading streak and I am not about to mess that up any time soon!

HOWEVER, just because I read every day doesn’t mean that I necessarily read a large quantity. I always read right before bed and sometimes it is only a few pages and I am totally ok with this because regardless of how much I read the streak stays alive and it does add up over time. BUT the latest Kindle Challenge has an “award” (and by that I mean a digital bookmark graphic that essentially says “yay, you did it”) for reading 8 books between now and the end of June.

My reading life is typically diversified between kindle books, some physical books, and a lot of audiobooks (which totally count!). SOOOOOO, I’ve decided to check out as many audiobooks as I can from the Library that I already have on my kindle! Then, when I’m done with the audiobook I just flip to the end of the kindle book and IT COUNTS!! Boom! I’m a genius! 😂

I may, in some cases, be downloading both the audio and kindle book from the library to essentially do the same thing, and any physical books I read I will also check out the kindle book for, for the same reason. 😁

I am nothing if not competitive and efficient!

I’m learning to draw on my iPad!
