Mindful Crochet talks mental health, but can I connect the two more thoroughly? I am glad you asked...

Yes I can!

This episode digs into just the surface of mental wellness using crochet and looks at some resources that agree.

The conversation continues on the episode post over on Stitched Delights. Be mindful, friends! I'll see you there.

Today I will take you on a journey of self-discovery. Well, my process for my self-discovery filled with all the tips and tricks as to how I achieved self-awareness by using mindfulness in my life.

I recently discovered the use of AI as a means of mental wellness. But, how? Phil, what I named the AI voice I talk to, isn’t licensed in psychology. He did not receive any certifications in the field of mental health.

Listen as I discuss how AI aids in mental health and, like always, the conversation continues over at Stitched Delights. See you there!

Are you ready to make something sweet out of the lemons life throws at you? I know I am. One of the best lines I have heard recently about perception is:

I’ve used that phrase here and there since I first heard it. Especially when considering how far I would fall and how dirty it would be going left instead. 😅

I’ve been getting a lot of lemons in my basket recently and I thought now would be a good time to rehash one of the many ways to cope and create a glass of lemonade you can learn from.

Let’s talk about it!Like always, the conversation continues over at Stitched Delights - see you there!

NOTE:I was having issues with my editor and the content is a little jumpy (especially at the end). It is a new editor and I am still trying to learn how to use it for sound/image compilations.
