  • Mental Health Challenge: Marie Kondo and Tech Detox

    Marie Kondo book sis the next step for decluttering your home! Grab all your books throughout the house into a pile and keep the books that you enjoy or that you have not read yet that still spark interest! All other books that you do not choose to keep I suggest donating to your local library to help the community you live in!


    Also it is Sunday, today is my catch up of all the things before getting the week started so I clean up my computer and social media of all unwanted things and organize the stuff I need to keep, that goes for social media also! I get rid of or unfollow all the things that may make me feel negative.

  • Mental Health Challenge: Fears

    Make a list of fears, and then plan a time to over come one those fears! 

    This Summer or Fall I am going planning to go skydiving. I am terrified of heights and jumping from a plane even in an emergency, so this will be interesting. 

    Every 3 or 4 months I decide to do something that scares even if its something like sending a text to someone I haven't talked to in a while!


    What are you afraid of?

  • Mental Health Challenge: Read a Book

    Escape to another world while reading the words on a page or listening to an audiobook.

    There's so many books I have always said I wanted to read and just never got to it! I now read a book a month, granted I haven't done it in a while but I can't wait to get into it!

    I also dedicate a part of my one hour for my time in the morning to reading at least for 30 minutes because it relaxes me!

  • Mental Health Challenge: Dedicate 1 Hour

    Wake up an hour early to dedicate that hour to yourself, and it even saves you time in the morning so you're not rushing out the door.

    You can also dedicate 1 hour to yourself at night. 

    While I dedicate an hour of my time in the morning it has helped me manage my anxiety a bit and helped me achieve a few goals!

  • Mental Health Challenge: Gratitude + Meditation

    Gratitude and meditation is a great practice of mindfulness. 

    I practice gratitude daily in a journal writing 5 things I am grateful for. Meditation is a bit harder for me so I also talk about a type of meditation called the body scan. 

    What are you grateful for today?!
