Journaling for mental health
“Grounding” and “journalling for mental health” sounded like hippy dippy fluff to me! But here is some solid scientific evidence that journalling for mental health really works.
Why I don’t believe in “Happy New Year!”
Happy New Year! Your car / house / spouse hasn’t magically transformed from one second to the next! And there’s no guarantee that 25 will be brilliant. But if it’s crap, you can have a fresh start the next day if you want to! It’s all up to you!
Reduce, Reuse, Relove!
My scars tell stories, and often taught me lessons (barbed wire, axe…) and are visible proof that I’ve survived! Like the sofa, whatever tattered mess remains of your life …there is still something beautiful to be made of your life…
Unique
Fighting to hang onto a scrap of my uniqueness (yes it’s been labelled weirdness, rebelliousness, freakishness and more) … is also exhausting, but has somehow enabled me to keep a fingernail’s grip on my sanity…
In a world that insists on labels and boxes: hang on to you. Hang on to your sanity. Wear your uniqueness with pride!
This is me!
Bad (helmet) hair day, tan lines and burned out; it’s a sunny day and I’m working for a friend so my crazy is showing. That’s my latest two videos… that’s me!
A mixed Week!
If I’m honest I’m probably doing that female thing where we whinge but don’t want solutions, just sympathy… this is the right place to do it since stats say this page is barely visited haha!
Although, blogging in itself is a bit of a solution.
My Dog, My World!
Two years ago today, at 8 months old (around about this time) my best friend came to live with in her Forever Home. Words can’t describe what a blessing this beautiful Beastie has been since then.
#No Diet Day
So today is #NoDietDay which really means no eating day and just highlights for me the utter silliness surrounding the “diet” industry which must be worth a fortune!
#Stress Awareness Month
all my uni coursework – last minute, 2 am, fingernails flying over the keyboard like scuttling cockroaches! My house is never cleaner than when I have a paperwork deadline looming!
Most depressing job ever
Lots of tears, lots of measuring, trying the muzzle (with a treat), adding, checking, measuring some more… It fits. She hates it and wants to claw it off…
