In a welcome break from the overly earnest tone of most wellness messages, Portland animation studio Tremendous Dope (whose character skills are on full show right here and right here) takes a lighter method to self-improvement in these six clips.
Christine Kim: “Navigating wholesome habits might be fairly a problem. It’s a lot simpler with a help group although, and that’s precisely why we created Self-Care Ideas with Pinkie & Handtonio. This dynamic duo is right here to aggressively remind us of the implications unhealthy habits can have on our well-being.
“By way of six completely different ideas, Pinkie, the embodiment of our not-so-stellar habits, playfully showcases some sadly relatable behaviors. Enter Handtonio, who steps in to make it crystal clear simply how self-destructive they are often.
“Within the midst of this journey, Pinkie and Handtonio are there to encourage us to decelerate, embrace constructive adjustments, and bathe ourselves with some much-needed love. With these two as our guides, we hope to overcome these unhealthy habits and embrace a brighter, extra fulfilling life.”
