Mermay 2019: Alysha

In this era of instant communication and seemingly constant productivity, much is said about the importance of taking time for oneself⁠—which is, of course, difficult to do when you've got piles of unread messages to respond to and deadlines creeping around every corner. But, when you turn your "me-time" into just as much a ritual as any of your other responsibilities, it's refreshing to see just how easy it can be to to fit a little time for yourself into each day. One such practitioner of this is the sweet and sympathetic Alysha, a mermaid who not only knows how to snap (and pose for!) a photo, but also shares memes and artwork that remind us we're not alone in facing life's little struggles. So whether your idea of "me-time" is eating a bowl of Mermaid Froot Loops in a warm bath, going for a sunrise swim, or cuddling up in a blanket with a pizza and a season of your favorite show on Netflix, Alysha is definitely the mermaid to follow if you're in need of some self-care inspiration!
