 Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh :) how are you?


I woke up in the morning very tired, could have slept all day.. didn't feel so good but my husband saved the situation by taking us for an one and half hour walk. Then I just cooked a simple dinner with yesterday's leftovers and today's blessings and after that, just relaxing. Alhamdulillah. I actually have now blisters in my feet..




...


Not much has happened or even has been on my mind. The psychiatric physiotherapy group I'm attending to might just start to work. In the group, we start with movement and then proceed to relaxation. And last time I noticed that when my mind, note not only my body but my mind too, is relaxed, it will automatically cut off the anxious thoughts. And I don't know have I felt such feeling for a while, I mean the very literal peace of mind. Now that I've noticed it, I might be able to practice it more. In sha Allah.

But there is some news: we did sign a new rent contract and we are moving after few months, in sha Allah :) I'm so excited! We have been living in this one room apartment, us two with the very territorial tortoise, and we need some space. It has been nice still, as we've been able to spend a lot time together and be close as newly wed's can, but also a new, hopefully more long term home sparks a lot of joy. I want to miss my husband when he's in another room, and I want to make the dinner table ready and surprise him with what I have cooked. 


...


Maybe you have noticed that I don't share a lot of pictures of our home. That's because I haven't been able to decorate this small space as I'd like to. I want to be able to put my floral paintings, which I have been collecting, on the wall. That will already make so much the home feel more cozy. And maybe we need some new (second hand) furniture too. When the time is right I will give you a little tour at the new place in sha Allah.

So stay tuned :) I'm happy to see you, dear readers, that you have come back and are following. Have a good evening, and later then,


Aisha

 Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh dears :) how are you doing? It's the endless promising that I will write more often.. I don't know why it is like this. But I'm really happy to see that you, dear readers, come back even though my lack of consistency. I can only promise to try to be better ;) I have been a little sick and even now I'm having some migraine symptoms. I've been in flu and had sore throat. Usually I'm physically healthy so this has stressed me out a bit. But alhamdulillah, getting better just in time for Ramadan. :) ... So yes. I have some news.. I got married ♡♡ I'm happy and it feels easy. We are still a bit strangers, we got married fast, so it's a bit of a learning process still. My husband is very sweet and takes care of me. It's the small things, he helps at home, always brings something when he comes (we are not living together yet), and gives compliments and intimacy. Alhamdulillah. Everyone have their misdeeds and m...

 Assalamu aleikum everyone! 😊❤ How are you doing? It feels great to start over. For those who don't know, I used to write a blog with the same title, "Cup of tea with Aisha", for around five years until I decided to demolish the whole thing. 😌 And it felt good. It was one part of my journey, finding myself and healing, and also about all the stumbling along the way. But now that part, is a part of the past. I'm still on that same journey, but on another level - a lot has happened and changed. So this is it, same me but maybe a different perspective.. I hope that with sharing my thoughts and insights, you may find yourself not feeling alone with yours. ❤ in sha Allah. ... In my profile, I tell I write about daily life, food, beauty, travel, islam, mental health and relationships. So, for an introduction, here's a brief 411 of these subjects in my life.. Daily life Right now, my daily life is very simple. In Finland everyone starts by asking about work or school, ...

 Assalamu aleikum 🌻 how's everything? So I want to start writing my story again and more real this time. I will write about all kinds of things, but a deep sea fish that I am, I will probably talk about some heavy issues. I hope it won't scare you away, and I hope it won't become a source of gossip either. Just what do we really have, if we don't hold onto the truth?  But I'll share some recipes and bring back monthly fave lists etc. in sha Allah, so no worries 🌻 ... When I wrote last time that there has happened something, well, I recently remembered a trauma. It has been always in the back of my head, but before, I never really knew for sure. But once I really started to remember..  Now it has turned my world upside down. There's so many questions that keep disturbing me. A strange feel of relief, too, from finally getting answers and reasons. I'm not sure am I feeling strong or vulnerable. I'm used to being anxious and stressed.. To my surprise, I d...
