A recommendation on an Instagram post had me on Netflix watching the first season of "Spinning Out" last week."A figure skating Olympic hopeful struggles to balance family, love and fragile mental health as her dream of winning takes a dizzying hold."Nine episodes where the lead character Kat, battles with her Bipolar Disorder alongside her mums … Continue reading Spinning Out
This week I took some time to practice a little self-care. I have to admit it hasn't been a priority since the lockdown and I guess I fell into auto-pilot and then self-condemnation at the time I had wasted. There was no mental relaxation. I tried meditating, and for those moments or days, I felt … Continue reading Self Care – Journal
I've been feeling exhausted. Not physically but mentally. Tired of my thoughts, tired of overthinking, tired of any and everything I think I have to do, should do, want to do but don't. I know I should be practising self-care, but when I take a moment to think about what to do, all I come … Continue reading Random ramblings
Deja VuMy production levels started well last week but by Wednesday I found myself distracted by social media. Endless scrolling on issues such as Black Lives Matter and COVID 19. I then got distracted by a particular Celebrities posts. He seemed to be posting manically which I identified immediately because that was me declaring in … Continue reading Glitch in the Matrix
Last month I set a few small goals and was pretty pleased with myself as I crushed them.

I don't read newspapers or watch the news because to be perfectly honest I don't need the extra anxiety of knowing all the tragic things that are going on in the world and even though I avoid news like the plague I am on Instagram so it's almost impossible to steer clear of major events … Continue reading RIP Caroline Flack
About last week Last week started ok until I woke up one morning to a barrage of audio messages from my ex which I initially ignored until he sent me a text suggesting I'm ignoring him when I'd decided I didn't feel like going through emotions and feelings from the past first thing. His or … Continue reading Back to the Future
I wrote my first post in November which was a pretty big step toward talking about my Mental Health Journey and though I would have written another one by now. I guess it just wasn't the right time but I had to check and I had written to posts which are probably incomplete because I've … Continue reading Sometimes we need to go backwards.
I have been trying to write my first post for a while, but like most things, I aspire to do I engage in the battlefield of my mind.  I sit down to start typing and my mind decides to wander. Thoughts about my spiritual journey and the constant feeling of not being enough, my life … Continue reading Overcoming…one day at a time!
