Thriving Amid the Pandemic Celebrate milestones and moments even while at home with Mekeni
The political, socioeconomic, and public health ordeals of the past year have presented hurdles that can crush even the strongest of spirits. Many have been struggling economically, physically and even mentally. In fact, many of us perhaps share similar stories of fatigue, burnout, grief, and loss.
With seemingly no end in sight, it can be easy to succumb to feelings of hopelessness. So, how exactly can you push forward and regain your sense of motivation?
Celebrate small victories
Celebrate not with blind optimism, but in recognizing the milestones you’ve conquered to come this far. Celebrate your small victories—getting up out of bed early in the morning, exercising, getting dressed, or even eating three meals a day. For some of us, these small feats can be considered victories in the most difficult days.
Prepare a sumptuous meal
One thing you can do is to prepare a meal for yourself or the family! Experiment in the kitchen by cooking a version of your favorite meal! To add a more flavorful bite and unexpected twist to these recipes, you can incorporate the family favorite Mekeni Tocino!
Mekeni is the only brand that offers two tocino variants that suit the different palates of your family. With its two variants, Tamis-Alat and Classic Sweet, you can now follow your #PanlaSarap and take your fave comfort food like burrito, taco, tonkatsu, and ramen a notch higher.
Give yourself something to look forward to.
It need not be a grand vacation or a trip out of town. Allow yourself to be excited and take pleasure in the small things, such as a weekend of self-care and release date of a new book or series. You will realize soon enough that celebrating your life moments even with small rewards can help you through the heavier days.
Spend time for yourself
This can be as small as spending time for yourself at the end of the day, doing absolutely whatever you want to unwind. You can listen to music, meditate, watch movies, spend time with your family, or enjoy a good meal.
These days, it’s important that you find a reason to celebrate. Nourishing yourself with food and celebrating small milestones at home can help refuel your motivation so that you can move forward to your next big goal.
