The importance of self-care is paramount; enhance your health and wellbeing, manage your stress, and maintain control under pressure.
Foot Hammock Anyone?
One of the things about not getting diagnosed till you’re an adult and then subsequently ignoring your diagnosis is that you compound your terrible ADHD habits and assume that everyone is just like you. The truth is that they aren’t. The stuff you’re doing isn’t what the person next to you is doing, well it might be but for the sake of this let’s say it isn’t.

Everything’s Going Well in Your Life but You Feel Miserable. Here’s Why. Top Story - November 2021.
Yesterday was objectively a good day. I woke up naturally at 7:30 am, read with my first cup of coffee of the day, meditated, journaled, wrote just over 1,000 words for my book, wrote a post for Medium, and found out that one of my articles was getting more views than usual. Then I had lunch, took a short nap, tackled some freelance deadlines, and celebrated the end of my day reading in the grass while sipping a ginger beer in the Buttes-Chaumont park. Finally, my girlfriend came home from work and we spent the evening together.

How Writing Saves My Life Every Day
This past week has been stressful. I had a flare-up of back pain that became so bad I couldn’t walk properly, which led to neck stiffness and horrible headaches. I had a bout of stomach pain. On Friday I was due for some day surgery; the same surgery I’d had in 2017, which led to an infection that seemed to have a run-on effect I’m still dealing with.

Soothing Youtube Channels for my Struggling Attention Span
This pandemic that has absolutely shredded my attention span. At one point in time, movies were my solace. I flipped through the catalog of Amazon Prime to enjoy a spontaneous flick, or skipped into Target/Walmart to pick a familiar and comforting $5-$10 movie. On Tuesdays I would happily run over to the Cinemark near my job for discounted movie tickets and make a whole night of it; a daquiri from Fat Tuesdays, sushi at a little metal table overlooking the ground floor walkway and entrances to several shops and restaurants, and a delicious donut I'd sneak in to the theatre to enjoy during the film. Movies were my excuse to be sociable, and present in life- to be surrounded by other likeminded people who were choosing this movie as a moment of leisure and engagement in the joys of life we are too busy toiling, to otherwise enjoy.

Am I Too Happy?
I am writing this because I have found the Psyche community on Vocal and though I have written many pieces dealing with Mental Health they have ended up in Journal or Humans. I usually feel I have no right to post in communities because I have not been (and don’t expect to be) diagnosed with any mental health conditions.

Meditate yourself to sleep
As a young child, I struggled to fall asleep every night of my life until I was old enough to smoke weed and get to sleep anytime I needed. I summed it up to having an over active brain that would not stop rambling on about everything all night. I've spent my last few years expanding my knowledge on chakras and energy flow. This expansion has led me into waters I couldn't imagine existed. I've learned how to feel the energy around me, how to send healing vibrations to a friend in need, how to hear angels and the most fun of all, how to experience past lives for karmic healing.

50 Shades of Self-Awareness.. Top Story - November 2021.
Hello. I am so glad you are here. I have something POTENT to say about healing from trauma. What I have discovered is that we are all just onions and our traumas are buried deep beneath the layers of who we 'think' we are.
