Happy Saturday!

Firstly, good morning. I'm currently lounging on my couch with my cat and dog, attempting to gather myself. It's one of those mornings where the last thing you want to do is move or even exist. You know the kind of morning I'm referring to? One thing I consistently forget to do when I first wake up is take my morning medications, which include my vitamins. Although I'm not a doctor and cannot offer medical advice, I can share that my B12 and multivitamin seem to provide the boost I need to start my day. My B12 is reputed to:

Good Morning Everyone!

Good morning! I hope everyone is enjoying a fine morning. I woke up in a fantastic mood and am looking forward to the day. How about you? There are many days when I wake up and just don't feel like myself. I don't feel like getting out of bed or facing the world and all its people. Many can surely relate. However, this morning I woke up, said my affirmations, and for those who don't know, affirmations are positive statements that foster self-improvement and boost self-esteem by counteracting negative thoughts. They are designed to shift one's mindset towards a more positive life outlook. It's an excellent way to start your day and get you thinking. There are also books and daily affirmation calendars that can assist with this. Moving on, who else struggles with getting up and going in the morning? How can we change this? It's really all about routine. You have to train your body to wake up every morning, and even on days off, you should be doing something to get moving. This can aid your physical and, most importantly, mental health.

The Rough Days

I must confess, today was exceptionally tough. It was like an unyielding rollercoaster of events, each one following the other, leaving my thoughts in a perpetual swirl. I found myself yearning for a break. It appeared that if it wasn't one thing, it was another. Nevertheless, I believe that everything happens for a reason. Maybe it was a test or a sign. There's a lot I need to think through. Life has been challenging, and clarity often escapes us when our thoughts are clouded. However, with my family's support, I consider myself lucky. In the midst of chaos, I took time to pause, reflect, and be alone with my thoughts. Later, I cleaned up a little, vacuumed, and organized some clothes. Then, I turned to my journal. My guided journal has been a refuge for me, a resource I highly recommend to anyone dealing with anxious thoughts. I am thankful for it and look forward to discovering more tools to help others who might find them relatable. How do you manage on tough days? I'm eager to hear about other people's experiences and viewpoints. I intend to share the specific journal that has helped me; it's an excellent aid during trying times. Sometimes, a journal and a cup of tea are all you need. There have been several that have been beneficial over the years, and I hope by sharing them, they will aid you on your path to success.

Searching For Peace

Every day, we go through the motions, experiencing the highs and the lows. Some of us feel we have found our peace and purpose, yet I believe we all harbor a sliver of doubt in our minds, a yearning for something more. Whether you're homeless on the street or a millionaire in a mansion surveying your lands, we all seek peace. Have you ever pondered what peace means to you? For me, it's connection, understanding, and respect. It's the ability to connect and collaborate with others. After all, without other people, what are we, really? Am I alone in thinking this, or am I the odd one out? You might call me crazy and turn the page, but while I have your attention, what does peace mean to you?

Put You First

It seems that many of us have consistently put ourselves last over the years. Some have reached a point where we no longer recognize who we are. That's where I found myself, along with many others. I've endured a lot over the years and lost parts of myself that I'm unsure I'll ever recover. Yet, here I stand, strong in the knowledge that I must prioritize myself above all else. I've chosen to chronicle my journey and invite you to join me. I'll be sharing not just snippets of my life but also those of others. Here I am, ready to write to you, share my story, and provide updates as I progress, imparting personal insights and those of others. While TikTok may be the current trend, writing has always been my natural inclination—I even keep a nightly journal. So here I am with my blog, my chaotic yet beautiful life, thoughts, and remedies that might aid others. Remember, you're never alone. It's important to put yourself first! Being selfish is sometimes necessary, a lesson I've only recently embraced as I continue to mature. So, join me on this journey of growth and discovery.
