  • Overcoming Hoarding: A Journey to Mindful Living

    I am a recovering hoarder. It was something I learned from my parents and it took me years to unlearn it. Unfortunately, I believe this habit is developed because of a lack mindset. Which is common when you come from poverty. My family is well off now but when I was a child we were…

  • Harnessing Your Ideas: The Power of Writing Them Down

    We often get ideas at the most random times. While we’re driving, showering, reading and so on. We tell ourselves “it’s fine, I’ll remember later”. But, if we’re honest with ourselves, we won’t. It’s such a shame when we see something and think to ourselves “hey that was my idea…” maybe it was a week…

  • To Trust Or Not To Trust

    To Trust Or Not To Trust

    It was pretty early on that I realized I couldn’t share my struggles and worries with my parents. They would either invalidate my feelings or simply become angry and defensive if they didn’t like what they were hearing. I would keep things to myself until they would inquire about what was happening in my life…

  • Just Get Started

    Just Get Started

    It’s easier said than done. Maybe it’s because you don’t know where to start or you don’t have time, your anxiety is spiking and you’re unable to do anything. Or maybe you’ll just start on Monday. We always have an excuse. I was the same and on occasion will still struggle to be honest with…

  • Difference between Morning Pages and Shadow Work

    I think it was around 2021 that I finally got sick of being tired and depressed all the time. It sounds silly after all why would it take me over 15 years to finally get tired of living in victim mindset? After some reflection I realized I had been putting all my energy into helping…

  • Overcoming Perfectionism Through Morning Pages

    It felt like my spirit guides were pushing the book “The Artist Way” on me for too long. It could have been coincidence but, I don’t believe in those. I truly believe everything is connected energetically. I first came across the book as I browsed a section for self development in a bookstore. I picked…

  • The Power of Making Your Bed: A Simple Habit for Mental Clarity

    I remember coming across a book that said “make your bed everyday”. Honestly I don’t think I even read it, but that line stuck with me throughout the years. There has hardly been a day since that I skip making the bed in the morning. I had noticed almost immediately how much of a difference…

  • Dress Cute for You

    Dress Cute for You

    I started dressing up almost daily to avoid living in my workout clothes. I began to see just how much of an influence my outfits have on me. While I don’t see anything wrong with lounging in our pajamas or workout clothes I had noticed it’s very easy to fall into the habit of lazing…

  • Finding Balance with “The Artist’s Way”: Week 2

    This week had moved so quickly, I spent most days either out traveling around with my cousin and her family visiting beautiful places around Japan or taking a day to recover from walking over 12,000 steps a day. In between I would be helping her children with thing like their hair or makeup. Over all…
