Every PhD is different. Let’s not compare our journey to others. #AcademicChatter #phdchat #phdvoice credit: sistercody

Being courageous doesn’t mean you have no fear but instead going in spite of the fear. So whatever you are a bit afraid of this week, try to find the courage to do it anyway 💜 #phdvoice #AcademicChatter

[Dr Sena Karaosmanoglu Yolsal @makesciencekind]

We all feel scared sometimes.
Maybe you're creating something, studying, learning new skills. Maybe you’re trying to figure out what you want and waiting. But I want you to know that you can handle this. So let this quote to be your reminder and motivation ✨ @PhDVoice

[Dr Sena Karaosmanoglu Yolsal @makesciencekind]

We tend to be hard on ourselves when learning new things. Please give yourself the grace and the space to learn. ✨#AcademicChatter #phdvoice #phdchat

It was an absolute pleasure to attend @iThriveEdin conference today. “Forget me Notes” choir put a big smile on our faces and showed us what a difference music makes to our mental health. Please watch their performance below! Thanks @FMNProject 🎶

‘We’re a choir that doesn’t come to just sing to you, we are a choir that wants you to sing with us’

Brilliant start from the Forget Me Notes choir who use music to build an inclusive community, combating isolation and improving wellbeing.

“I took a walk in the woods and came out taller than trees.” Walking, without a destination to arrive, is such an extraordinary thing. When you need to ease your mind, go for an aimless walk where you unravel 🍂 #PhDvoice #mentalhealth #AcademicChatter

[Dr Sena Karaosmanoglu Yolsal @makesciencekind]

Doing a PhD is hard and we often feel like we’re lost in unknown but ask yourself this: What if everything turns out for the best? Motivation is the most important thing, keep going and believe in yourself. #AcademicChatter #phdvoice

Rained a lot today in Edinburgh but look what happened 🌈🌈 #Edinburgh

[Dr Sena Karaosmanoglu Yolsal @makesciencekind]

Feelings are like clouds, let them pass. If you are feeling sad today, just remember it’s not forever. #phdvoice #AcademicChatter

@palaeokatie You being Scottish is one of the reasons why I love following you 💙 this is in addition to nature, rock, sea and all the inspirational content you share x

[Dr Sena Karaosmanoglu Yolsal @makesciencekind]

Let this beauty inspire you today. If you want to see the rainbow 🌈, you got to put up with the rain 🌧️. You are stronger than you think, you can do this! #PhDvoice #AcademicMentalHealth #phdchat #AcademicChatter

You are the driver and life will always bring some traffic.Just like when you see a careless driver,you wait and let them go.Sometimes you open your window for fresh air or you put the air conditioning on to get warm. You can speed up if you want or just enjoy the road. #PhDVoice

[Dr Sena Karaosmanoglu Yolsal @makesciencekind]

Please remember you deserve to make decisions and have boundaries. You are allowed to say no and it’s okay if others get upset. You deserve self care. #AcademicTwitter #phdvoice #AcademicChatter (credit:sistercody on IG)

What you see below is your life. A human life, just divided into weeks. Although it seems like there are an infinite number of weeks ahead of us, it isn’t. It's finite. So what can you do this week to build a life you’re happy with? #AcademicTwitter #PhDvoice #AcademicChatter

[Dr Sena Karaosmanoglu Yolsal @makesciencekind]

Let’s start the week by reminding ourselves: All of us just want to feel happy. So let us be kind to each other. Let us be compassionate to who have lived different lives. Let us remember we need each other. #AcademicTwitter #phdvoice credit: sistercody

Don't waste your time hating a failure. Failure is a greater teacher than success. Listen, learn, go on. #AcademicChatter (Photo credit: @KelvingroveArt)
