A revamped piece that I'm currently working on! Let me know if you'd like to see anything particular added to this piece.
π«πͺ΄Very rarely do I naturally get up around 5am. Today I did though and instead of falling back asleep I decided make it a day where I get up and get more accomplished. Between the major steps I took yesterday to my goal steps for today hoping to make these morning routines a ritual. (Send coffee hahaha) πͺ΄π«
ππ¦ I have been struggling immensely with anxiety and depression for a while now. I have also been mourning losses along the way that still hurt. I saw a video the other day though that kind of stuck with me. In short, it was referring to how the universe gives us challenges but those with a higher purpose often go through more trials and tribulations. This hit me in a way that made sense. π¦π
πͺ·π§ΏAs a healer we often attract those in need of help. As a hurt healer we attract other hurt people. It has a lot to do with the Law of Attraction and Quantum Physics. You are what you attract and you attract what you ask for. This can be as simple as saying "I'll never finish a task". If you put that into the universe you surly won't finish that task. That's why it is so important to be mindful of what you say and do. Your words and thoughts alone have the power to make or break your success. π§Ώπͺ·
π»πIt's okay to take a break and to sit with your emotions. Just don't stay in that space for too long and always be kind to yourself and others in the process. ππ»

Growing up art has always been one of my passions. It has had its moments of simple bliss and moments where it quite literally saved me. The beauty behind art is anyone can do it. π¨π»
ππΏ It's subjective and doesn't have to look like everyone else's work. You can literally pave new paths and there's no limitations except the ones you put on yourself.

An interesting video that one of my professors recommended for a class discussion. It is a simple breakdown of Cluster B Personality Disorders (antisocial, borderline, histrionic, narcissistic). This video breaks down how to identify these disorders.
Let me know what you think and if you learned anything new in the comments section! π§ π
