OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 37th compilation post of OCD's latest curation efforts. It has been known that OCD has been supporting leading niche communities under its Community Incubation Program. However, there are still a lot of other niche communities not supported by OCD. This curation initiative will help in supporting those communities.

This newest curation effort aims to encourage authors to post in appropriate communities even if those communities are not under the incubation program. This will also encourage users to explore more into the different communities in Hive.

How this Works

OCD curators and community leaders will find posts from other niche communities and recommend them for an upvote. Unlike those communities in the incubation program where curation is focused, this curation initiative is spread out. This will help find undervalued posts from smaller communities that deserve support.

This will highlight both the author and the community where the post is located. This way, smaller niche communities can focus on growing their subscribers and increasing the engagements within their respective communities. A small boost goes a long way.

Speaking of boost, here are the curated posts for this batch:

¿Quién no ha estado abrumada por educar a sus hijos en casa? / Who hasn't been overwhelmed by homeschooling their children?

The confinement we are experiencing due to the pandemic results in fear, irritability, anguish, stress and emotional discomfort. This leads to our precious children changing their temperament and not behaving in the best way. So my dear #Hivers and #Motherhood readers today I want to talk to you about how I have coped with having to homeschool my two children, one eight and one six years old, because of the pandemic. My older son is in 2nd grade and my younger son is in 1st grade. The truth for me and for them has been a challenge, because the home environment is not exactly the best place to carry out the educational process.

You Are Not An Island ...Or A Robot

I often see posts along the lines of, "When you feel bad about not being able to keep up with working a job, and keeping your home clean, and cooking healthy meals, and spending time with friends and family, don't guilt yourself. The current system was built with the idea that one income could support a family, and the other spouse could stay at home and take care of the cooking and cleaning type stuff. It isn't a failure on your part that you can't do both." And yes, that is true. But also, I would argue, even that model is unnatural.

Sugbusog - A Community & Household Vegetable Gardening Project

When I saw the first garden, I thought that somebody did a pretty good job in making sure the place was neat and clean. I appreciated the fact that each row had a board with the name of the plant or vegetable growing.

Goolrick's, Craig's and Dr. Dobson's Stories — Books I Got from Booksale Philippines

When the whole world had shut down a year ago due to COVID-19, binge reading has become my stress reliever. It all started with a free application software (just curious about it) but I eventually got hooked up with the stories there until I found myself buying books online to read more and more books of my interest.

CHALLENGE - CELEBRATING EARTH DAY // CELEBRANDO EL DIA DE LA TIERRA

Happy Earth Day to all of you! Yesterday was Earth Day and just yesterday I gave myself a fantastic gift, I went for a walk in the Avila. At 6:00 a.m. I had already left my house. The walk took 3 hours round trip, but it was because I had to walk from my house to the entrance of Avila and it is a 30 minute walk.

Vegan Lunch To Surprise Your Family And Friends

It is important to clarify that everything you will see here I did without exact measurements. For the preparation of the beans it is convenient to leave them to soak from the day before or if they forget them as in my case 😊 put water to boil and leave them in that water for 20 min. After the soaking process we proceed to whistle them for an hour or until they are soft.

Cup Noodle Samadhi | 2021

First of all, this is a semi-serious collection of thoughts about life and living, the quest for spiritual liberation, and how our ordinary life seems to be in conflict with the search for ultimate truth. I'm not here to find fault with any philosophy or religious belief, just trying to understand and let out some of my own confusion. So, that's that, and here goes...

Salida al médico con Gabriel 💕|| Doctor's visit with Gabriel💕 [Esp-Eng]

I have been away for a few days because I have not been feeling very well, I guess my recovery is progressive but a bit slow, which is stressful, but as health is the main thing patience is the only thing I must have.
