Boundaries & Why They’re Important
Boundaries.. We always hear this word. “You have to have boundaries.” “Make sure people are respecting your boundaries.” “You’re only as good as your boundaries.” “Boundaries, boundaries, boundaries.” This word seems to constantly come up, but what does it mean? What even are boundaries? Well, let’s get into it. Boundaries are specific to the individual and are developed through our own personal experiences in life. Boundaries are formed as a means of protecting our space, emotions, and well-being. They essentially help us maintain self-care, foster healthy relationships, reduce stress, and empower ourselves by ensuring our needs and values are respected. Given that people can’t read our minds, boundaries are essential…

How To Not Be Triggered
A Guide To Being Unbothered Being triggered is a normal part of life. We’re all humans, and we all have emotions, and among those emotions are anger and sometimes a little bit of rage. It’s only human, and as we mature and as we grow into adults, we come to realize that we have to build some sort of emotional resilience and maturity. Otherwise, we’re just going to lash out emotionally towards anything that may happen in our lives, and that’s not healthy, and it’s especially not healthy when you’re trying to maintain healthy connections in your life. This is why I felt inspired to write this blog. I’ve had…

Forgiveness Is Freedom
Let’s talk about that uncomfortable act that isn’t too often celebrated, forgiveness. Yes, I am aware that the thought of forgiving those who have wronged us in the past is not the least bit appealing to most. Yet, here I am, challenging you to change your perspective on your notion of forgiveness. You see, sometimes when we’re going through a healing phase, it entails exploring any trauma and emotions that may come to the surface so that the energy can be processed and released from the body, making room for new energy to come into your energetic vortex, ergo your life. When this suppressed energy gets released from the body,…

Aging With Grace
In this blog post I will share my perspective on aging and question societal beliefs pertaining to the matter. As time progresses, it’s only natural that the human body is going to experience wear and tear. Everything in life has its cycles. We see it in the trees we see surrounding us whenever we go outside for a breath of fresh air. To the beautiful birds that chirp every morning. Even in the squirrels we see running up and down the powerlines, to us humans despite how desperately we attempt to fight nature. As a matter of fact, even the material objects we have a tendency of obsessing over come…

Everything is Meaningless
Life… Has no meaning. It is merely what you make of it. The happening is just that….. Happening. It is a mere result of existence. It is a fact. Given that we have not completely proven that this may all be a simulated reality. Your experiences, feelings, and the events occurring within your life cannot be labeled as anything other than the truth as it is in fact happening. Existence is a fact, the happening is a result of existence. The unfolding actions in our day to day lives are nothing more than a concoction of cause and effects pigmenting our perceived reality. Outside of what value we attach to…

Cultivating Inner Peace Within A World of Chaos
In the snap of a finger, life can easily get very fast paced and overwhelming. The work life structure that has been instilled within most of us can sometimes lead us to obsessively work ourselves to oblivion… or worse, burn-out. It is because of this that maintaining a balanced level of inner peace is just as much a priority as your career, family, and time for fun. Without taking time to go within and re-calibrate your energy, you risk inner- chaos. In taking time to care for yourself you also in the same take care of others. We go on about our lives experiencing an overwhelming need to get things…

The Joy is in the Journey; Overcoming Anxiety
Sweaty palms, flustered face, an intense vibration resonating from the chambers of the heart. Ba boom! Ba boom! Ba boom! Ahhh the overwhelming discomfort the body experiences at the hands of anxiety. I think most of us are all too familiar with this feeling. For as long as I could remember, anxiety had been a prevalent issue in my life, like a little pest just biting away at my mental wellbeing. That is, until I decided I would no longer allow anxiety to rule over me. For years anxiety had me in it’s shackles. Overthinking every interaction, every possible outcome. It became a way of being. The intrusive thoughts would…
