Blue Monday Survival Tips, In Drawings.

2023 blue monday survival Cindy Mangomini

Ideas To Make Blue Monday A Happy Monday.

Today is Blue Monday, supposedly the most depressing day of the year. Since I often draw about self care, mental health and depression coping strategies I thought I’d give you some illustrated positive inspiration to make the most of Blue Monday.

In case you’re interested: for at home exercise I like Yoga With Adriene  Some of my favorite comedy podcasts are Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend and Tig & Cheryl: True Story. These always make me laugh.

If you want to treat yourself to something that will bring happiness all year: I still have a few 2023 wall calendars available on Etsy, now with a discount.

December Sadness

When your self care routine is not enough and you just feel sad.
I had quite a horrible week but at least I managed to do some drawing again so things are going in the right direction. For those also feeling the December/2020 blues: take care!💚⁠

Happy International Tea Day!

Tea is Always A Good Idea (In Drawings)

Happy international tea day! I’m a huge tea-lover, so of course I have to celebrate this with one of my most popular illustrations. Did you know that this is actually a day to bring attention to the often poor working conditions in the tea industry? So: tea is always a good idea, but make sure you buy from tea brands that support fair trade.

I have this illustration available on Etsy on postcards and prints.

Want More (Hand Drawn) Tea?

Take a look in my Etsy shop. I have a very similar card with a different text available there, as well as much more hand drawn happiness that often includes tea.

Self Care Sunday, In Drawings.

Sunday is for Self Care!

Sundays are for self care!💚⁠ This quick little drawing gives you some self care ideas for your Sundays. I do all of these things myself, and not only on Sunday.

I try to start my day with a little at home yoga session. I love Yoga with Adriene on YouTube, and also try to meditate or do breathing exercises every day. While I work I listen to music of podcasts and drink lots of tea. I go hiking almost every week and always make sure that I have some evenings to myself, to enjoy my favourite Netflix show or read a book. This illustration sums it all up. I hope you find it useful!

International Self Care Day, Illustrated.

Self Care Day Ideas, In Drawings.

Happy International Self Care Day! Self care has always been important, but this year I think we all can use some extra time to focus on things that make us feel more relaxed and happy. In this illustration I drew some of the things that are helpful to me. What do you like to do to give yourself some extra care?

Self Care Reminder

Update: I got a lot of requests to make my self care drawings available on Etsy. That’s why I now have Take Care and Mental Health Plan cards in my shop.
