Our Editor's Take
Make Your Damn Bed is a daily self-improvement podcast. The host is Julie Merica, a photographer and performer from the Chicago area. There are many reasons to make one's bed right after getting up in the morning. Merica lists them in the first episode of the podcast. She argues beginning the day with a mindful ritual can inform the rest of the day. A made bed is less tempting to fall back into. It also makes a space feel clean and neat, which can help declutter the mind. It's an act of self-care disguised as a chore.
The podcast is designed for listeners to hear as they straighten and tuck their bedding. Episodes are less than ten minutes. That's about as long as it should take listeners to complete this easy but important daily task. During each episode, Merica shares her thoughts and advice with listeners. As a fan of The Artist's Way, she often lifts tips from the book and applies them to daily life. She also teaches listeners about the importance of hope to combat fear and anxiety. Merica urges them to be authentic and vulnerable with the people around them.
Some podcast episodes have actionable advice. There is a series on spending less by examining values and aligning them with consumption habits. Other episodes focus on the workplace. Merica reminds listeners that sometimes, planning gets in the way of doing. She also has tips for managing seasonal affective disorder.
Merica likes to try out new ideas and share her findings on the podcast. She encourages listeners to do the same. Curiosity can become a daily practice and joy can be intentional. She exercises blue-sky thinking as a way to engage creativity.
Make Your Damn Bed is a great choice for listeners seeking good habits. Self-help enthusiasts and fans of motivational talks may also appreciate the podcast.
