Covid-19 & Mental Health

 Self Care is a big deal. I know you hear more and more people talk about this one topic more than any other topic around. Since we have all encountered the Crazy and time stamped Pandemic, it has been one heck of a ride for all to endure, not to mention ones who were already on the verge of a mental breakdown because of other things that was happening in their lives. Self care became a big topic for me when I started to have my own mental breakdown due to the fear of the pandemic.  I have never in my life experienced such a detrimental moment in time than I have in 2020. It literally took a toll on me mentally. I was doing my best to put on a brave face for all in my home, my children, my husband and even myself. I was so afraid of the unknown because I had never been in that type of situation before. I mean of course we wake up, take on day to day life and life seems normal or so we think, but when Covid-19 hit, it took on a whole new beast and it took no prisoners, it wasn'...

Set Your Expectations & Rock Out!

At first I use to crave a good ole Dominos Pizza, I had to have my fix at least once a week, but at some point eating like that lead me to a life of misery. Just overwhelmed & unsure if I was ever going to lose the weight. It wasn’t until I developed a different way of looking at things, at looking at life. Not being indecisive or undecided.  I knew that food wasn’t the enemy, it was the way I viewed food, my relationship with or without food and what kind of life was I truly living where food was controlling me. I started to develop a more healthier relationship, not only with my food but also with my thought, my actions and most importantly my words. The words I spoke to myself meant a lot. It would determine if I was really going to put in effort and take action to better my health or was I going to continue down that spiraling roller coaster leading no where but right into hoops and hoops of circles.  I started simple & small, by adding in & not taking out or s...

✨Coming into my truth✨

Image
For many many years I wasn’t living in my own truth. I was so distracted by all things and people around me that it became my norm. I was truly living for everyone else and not me. I was a true people pleaser, always looking for that one set of validation or making sure that I was getting recognized for being what other’s thought I should be.  It was just a miserable way to live, but it was who I was. It was my disgusting truth. It wasn’t till I realized that my worth was so much more than being validated by people who could care a 2 cents about me or my family. I started to become my own person. I no longer wanted to live in the shadows of the glits and glam of the so called perfect life.  I wanted normalcy back in my life and I was determined to get back to loving me unconditionally. Slowly but surely I began to wake up and see that my life is just beautiful the way it is and that I had nothing to prove to no one. Once you start living in your truth and going about your prec...
