Healthy Body, Healthy Mind

Due to my temperature mysteriously rising after taking ballet class, I have decided to truly focus more on my body; come early to class, breathe, drink even more water (I don’t know how that’s possible tbh😅), make fresh juices, and most importantly, don’t push myself into achieving smthg that my body is clearly signaling a red light to.

Was it my past “trauma” that’s stuck in my physical being? Or is it based more on a sign to do smthg that makes me truly happy and fills my soul with satisfaction + expansiveness without the necessary support + compliments from others?

Why this Blog?

The purpose of this blog is simply to create a space where I can let my random and paradoxical (sometimes philosophical) thoughts roam free. Similar to a journal, I’ve decided to publish this space as a public domain to allow others to see that they are not alone in their mental health healing journey and provide some tips + advice that I have learned along the way.

Too Fast

I’ve always been a high-achiever. I was accepted into the gifted and talented program at my magnet elementary school and graduated with honors from high-school. My brain works fast.

But sometimes I think it works too fast. I can skip out on words when I’m handwriting and can easily jump to conclusions + assumptions if I’mnot careful. Seems like I have to hold down its reign, stop, and breathe a minute.

A good exercise to slow down an active brain is taking 3 long and deep breaths with the exhale longer than the inhale☝️

Cheers!
