Hello comrades and welcome to the fifth and last improvement megathread of June!

How was your June? What would you like to focus on in July?

Fun fact: tomorrow (July 1st) will be the exact middle day of the year. It will be the 183rd day of the year and 183 more days will remain until the end of the year. Good time to look back and review your year so far. It’s also a good time to remember your new year resolutions and get back on track with your goals. A lot progress can be done in 6 months. What would you like to do until the end of the year?

Good luck with your goals!

I saw some pop-health headline about walking being good for lower back pain, so I walked around work for a while last week (it’s a huge, air conditioned building) and it felt good, so I decided to start this. Even just walking at a brisk pace for a half hour was good today!

You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !self_improvement@hexbear.net

A community which focusses on improving yourself. This can be in many different ways - from improving physical health or appearance, to improving mental health, creating better habits, overcoming addictions, etc.

While material circumstances beyond our control do govern much of our daily lives, people do have agency and choices to make, whether that is as “simple” as disciplining yourself to not doomscroll, to as complex as recreating yourself to have many different hobbies and habits.

This is not a place where all we do is talk about improving “productivity” (in a workplace context) and similar terms and harmful lifestyles like “grindset”. Self-improvement here is intended to make you a generally better and happier person, as well as a better communist, and any other roles you may have in your life.

Rules and guidelines:

Posts should be about self-improvement. This is obviously a wide category, and can range from advice, to finding resources, to self-posts about needing to improve in a certain area, or how you have improved, and many other things.

Use content warnings when discussing difficult subjects.

Do not make medical decisions solely because of a discussion you have had with any person here (e.g. whether to take or not take medications; diagnoses; etc.) as we do not vet people. All medical problems should be discussed with a real-life medical professional.

Do not post harmful advice here. If this is seen, then please report it and we shall remove it. If you are unsure about whether it’s precisely harmful advice or not but feel uneasy about it, please report it anyway.

Do not insult other users and their lifestyles or their habits (unless they ask, I suppose). This is a place for self-improvement. Critique and discussion about a course of action is encouraged over shit-flinging. Don’t talk down to people.
