M.A.D. Gyal Musings

In this episode I share a message that came through very strongly from spirit for you as the ultimate mind-being wellness goal for 2021 — to get back to self and focus on building mental strength/discipline by cultivating healthier habits, making necessary shifts and eliminating what no longer serves us. You always know what you need to do to be your best self and show up authentically in the world, now's the time to execute that...

Seneko Kakona is Wahiyani Eyeri [the language spoken by indigenous Taino people], this particular phrase means "abundant blessings".

Life updates; practical grounding tips; a mind-being wellness sound healing exercise to help us root and centre ourselves (it's helped me a lot recently, just close your eyes and allow the sound waves to flow through your body); and a hint of what's to come post holiday season.

Please stay safe, practice social distancing, stay in your homes or as we say in Jamaica, tan a yuh yard and practice proper hygiene to reduce the possibility of contracting COVID-19. Be sure to also get enough rest, hydrate, eat, move your body and strengthen your immune system... and don't forget to be compassionate, we're all going through it right now.

Mabrika [welcome]

This is part 1 of a 2-part episode where I'm looking at what to do if you're in quarantine, lockdown etc. in an unsafe home, whether you are in physical danger or in an environment that destabilises your mental health in these COVID-19 times.

In this one, I offer some free or very accessible recommendations for coping techniques that should help with maintaining your sanity as you navigate this; while in the other, I'll touch on the resources that are available to you for help in Jamaica. I'll go more into resources in pt 2. 

If you like this, please rate, subscribe, share on your social media and tag me — @tamitsansai—I'll appreciate whatever you decide on. If you have feedback, send me a DM or e-mail me: [email protected], I'm learning and growing, so I'd love to hear it. 

Featured song is Trigger Protection Mantra by Jhené Aiko, I hope it soothes you as it does me.  Also, here's the other info I mentioned and some free resources you can use: 

N.B. You can also go to your nearest community clinic or hospital for mental health care, assessment and referrals if you need to do so.

Please stay safe - practice social distancing, wear a mask and sanitise ALL the things! Hahom, seneko kakona [Thank you & abundant blessings].

In my second official episode, I'm sharing practical tips, curated from experts and some of my own, on how to take care of your mental health in light of the current Coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic. I hope you find them useful and valuable. 

If you do, please share this with someone, like it, rate it, leave me a comment. You can also e-mail me ([email protected]) and follow me on social media at @tamitsansai. 

I also forgot to include the two songs for today. The first of which represents the cut and clear, 'destroy to rebuild better' Oya energy I mentioned earlier. Oya, by Ibeyi. Incidentally, Oya is the Orisha I most identify with. Play the song here: https://youtu.be/lHRAPIwsS5I 

The other is incredibly soothing. It's The Waves We Give by Beautiful Chorus ft a Bruce Lee quote. I always find it so helpful when it feels like everything is falling apart. Stream it here: https://youtu.be/654sikYivck 

Seneko kakona [abundant blessings] and see you next week!

It's my first full-length episode! If you're here, thank you and welcome. I hope you like it and I hope you'll stay. This podcast is a whole new world for me and I'm excited to see what comes as I learn and garow along with it. 

Since it's my first, of course I get into a bit of who I am, how I got here and what you can expect from #MGMcast or #madgyalmusings, then I put forward some questions about modern dating/intimacy for your feedback and share a song that the topics bring to mind.  

I also reference my She Speaks 'lecture', which you can find on YouTube here:  bit.ly/TamiSpeaks
