Breaking the Loop: Why You Need to Stop Googling Your Anxiety Symptoms Today
Let me take you back to a time very different from today. It's sometime in the spring/summer of 2017. I couldn't tell you what day it was because, at the time, days didn't exist. The sun would come up, then go again. To me, it was all just one day, the longest day of my life.

"Write for Life" by Julia Cameron: My First Impressions
After noticing that "The Artist's Way" had blown up on TikTok, and talking about the famed title with a friend, I was desperate to try it for myself. I didn't know who Julia Cameron was, but the buzz surrounding her best-selling book enamoured me. My head was swirling with thoughts of a spring filled with long days spent pouring my whole heart into my creativity. In my mind, I could see myself losing track of time watching flowers bloom. Then spending evenings writing poems long into sunset by the delicate breeze of an open window. Warmth in the air, what a Pinterest scene.

Jimmy Wordsmith Vs. The Writer's Block
Jim swished his tea leaves into a flurry with eight swirls of his favourite teaspoon. The gentle clinking of the metal against the side of the cup provided some welcome contrast to the silent stillness in his kitchen on this Sunday afternoon. Returning his buttocks to the grooves in his computer chair, he’d tap a few letters, then delete them. Read something, watch a YouTube video, watch pornography, play some lo-fi. He even tried a little yoga, but today was turning out to be another day of staring blankly at a blinking cursor. Nothing was getting the creativity flowing.

Dream Down Memory Lane
My eyes opened to white clouds engulfing my whole body. I was weightless, lighter than a feather. I swirled with the wind, suspended in the sky. During my time floating around I was limitless, time non-existent. Until the softest light started to pierce through the middle. The clouds split open, revealing the most beautiful pink and purple master piece of a sky you've ever seen. The moon shone on a heavenly gate, with words carved out in the silver, the gate read "Memory Lane".

The 3 Anxiety Busting Techniques That Helped Me Through 10 Years of Anxiety and Panic Attacks
"If the ocean can calm itself, so can you. We are both salt and water mixed with air." - Nayirah Waheed. One of the biggest challenges when learning to manage any mental health issue, is wading through the seemingly never ending vortex of information in books and on the internet. It’s hard to determine what works, and what doesn't. It takes a lot of trial and error, and can vary from person to person. The process of working it out takes time, but understandably waiting can be very distressing when every day is starting to feel like an uphill struggle.
