Finland is cold and windy at this moment. All autumn leaves are soon departing because of a few winds. It's getting dark quicker, however, there are a few things I do to cheer up a little in this weather.

1. I got some plants and flowers from my friends, seeing and taking care of them make me happy. People say plants can bring joy to us, I think it's true. Seeing beautiful flowers in the kitchen table after a tired working day makes me smile, having a plant in my room when I meditate can bring calm and zen feel, or seeing a new leave from a plant is exciting.

Here is a rose plant I got from my boyfriend and a Swiss cheese plant (split leaf philodendron) I got from my friend this summer.

Ficus lyrata bambino
Ficus I bought from Plantagen last Sunday.

2. Taking care of myself
There are many times I have negative thinking and wouldn't want to do anything. But I tried to take care of myself. For example, I start with something very simple: taking a shower, enjoy warm water flowing in the skin with favorite shower gel scent and relax with music on.

3. Meditation and yoga
It's easy for me not to do exercise. That's why I tried to do very short yoga every morning that wouldn't last longer than 2 minutes before I go to work.

4. Listening to music or reading good book
Someday I went home and laid in bed with my head phone, listened to music without doing anything else and I felt so good. My currently reading is “the life changing magic of tidying up”, it is really an inspiring book. I had de cluttered before but now I have a lot of stuffs. I will try if I can de clutter a gain.

Last but not least is the picture of my favorite products.

products i love

Bevita lip balm: I cannot live without this. My lower lip is super dry and breaks out easily. Since I know this lip balm from the pharmacy, I have used it almost 2 year and introduce it to my friends. It is my magic lip balm.

Garnier Micellar cleansing water: this product is super effective for removing makeup.

Lumene: I love many Lumene products because of its gentle and exotic clean fresh smell from nature like arctic berry...I have used this toner and it is good to my skin.

Biotherm aqua source ever plump: the jar is almost empty now. It keeps my skin well moisturized and smells like the ocean.

Shiseido ibuki refining moisturizer enriched: this is a second time I bought this product. I love the sophisticated subtle scent and it keep my skin hydrated for all day long.
