When repetition has it's hold of me, my entire being starts protesting - fortunately, there are very simple things to do when you need a change.
I do not know if you had the same experience, but when I am in need of something new, my taste for food is dimmed, usual things do not bring joy and I am just desperate for something new, in food, lifestyle, experiences. For the days when I feel that I need a change, I have accumulated a few simple formulas which give me the change my mind needs to break through the routine life.
Try these simple things for when you need change in life and see for yourself!
Sometimes, all it takes is a new taste, a new dish, a new gourmand experience to shake things up.
I like to write down my feelings on a piece of paper - usually the truth comes out right away - something you can not do when just thinking about what might cause this feeling.
When you put paper between you and your feelings - you can objectively assess what's bothering you and tackle this very area that causes overall discomfort.
These are the strategies I use in my daily life, when repetition has its hold on me. Which tricks worked for you? Do tell in the comments!
