Self Compassion: What Does It Really Look Like?
“You’re inner critic is simply a part of you that needs self-love”, Amy Leigh Mercree The last few years seem to have been full of mistakes for me. One after another, just piling up like a Jenga puzzle. Ready to collapse at any given moment. What I realized is that every mistake comes with an emotional impact. It ignites feelings of shame, guilt and fear. These can overwhelm you and take over your progress. You become paralyzed and stuck. What I’ve discovered is only you have the power to overcome this obstacle. There is one sound answer to heal from these wounds, and that is self-compassion.

Break Through Mental Health Slumps
It is no secret that I suffer from the effects of anxiety and depression. I have struggled with the grips of these illnesses since I was a child. Lately, my mood has been less then ideal. I've been agitated, fatigued, panicked, and full of pain. There are many nights I sleep very little and quite a few days I have to fight to make any sort of progress. Self care helps. I do practice taking time for me where I can, trying to do activities I enjoy. I make a solid effort most days to get up, get dressed, shower, do my hair and makeup. I follow a pretty consistent schedule which is helpful.

Women: We Need to Stick Together
I used to be a guys girl, and I was quite proud of it. I didn't feel comfortable around women. With men I felt more relaxed and less guarded. When I was with women I felt judged and mis understood. Much of this was because deep down, I really just hated myself. I constantly compared myself to other women. Comparing beauty, weight, relationship status, or popularity. Much of this was not due to any fault of other women, it simply lied with me.
