Truth. i’m leaving the house, i’m getting iz & i to appointments, i’m getting the shopping done & the clothes washed, i’m saying yes to dream opportunities even though they’re way out of my comfort zone, i’m parenting positively, consistently and with lots of love, going on dates, i’ve been working and i’m also struggling! i’ve been picking at the skin on my lips & fingers until they get sore & bleed, my anxiety has spiked.. so even though i‘m doing a lot, it’s all been really hard & draining when it isn’t usually, my brain’s been scattered & struggling to concentrate, i’ve been feeling really self conscious & like everyone thinks i’m s****d & not good enough, i’m overthinking to the point of not being able to post & i’ve been self medicating which i haven’t done for ages.
my old unconscious programming took over somewhere along the line (it happens to everyone from time to time) & has been telling me because i’ve been a productive human everything‘s ok! i didn’t get the signs my mind was sending trying to tell me otherwise, so my body decided to have a go at getting my attention - in the form of a flare up with my hands & arms & it succeeded! the pain & inability to use my hands stopped me in my tracks & helped snap me out of the unconscious funk i was in.
that’s where i’m at right now and that’s why i’ve been quiet on here. i’m doing my best! we’re all doing our best and that will always look different for everyone. it’s all magical, learning, growth and healing! awareness is a powerful thing and i’m already feeling so much better thanks to it.
this journey is yours, you’re not alone, there’s no one right or perfect way, there’s no shame in struggling, losing your way or needing help. you’re human & everything’s okay. take care of yourself today, sending sooo much love your way! 💖🌿🦕🍄🌸🌈🦄💜 p.s not for praise or a cry for help, just keeping it real because that’s important to me and can be helpful for others. 💕

if you wanna feel good, get up and do something about it! meditate, exercise, practice deep, mindful breathing, spend time in nature, say daily positive affirmations!
be good to yourself. while it can sometimes take a whole lot of motivation to do something productive like exercise or meditate, it’s rarely something you regret doing once you’ve done it. the reward from the endorphins released within our brains in response to these activities makes it well worth it.
do your best to make new, healthy habits to ensure a happier and more successful life. 🤗
