I reached out into action to open up in my mind and soul to create a good day.

Breeze is nice and the sun rather sunny lol I am just in a much better place and perspective than I was this morning before I meditated and exercised.

Happy memories. Making new memories.

What are you grateful for?

That is the cutest little turtle. I love it. Where are you? The lake?

You know what I'm grateful for today???? The off button. The one you can push with your mind and block out all the crap that goes on. I just pushed mine.

I am grateful for the good book I'm going to read now.

I'm also grateful for baby Hedge Hogs. This one isn't mine. But mine will be coming in September

❤️🐬

What a good question. I like your ability to see the positive. Sometimes we get trapped in our minds only able to see the things that are wrong. At least it is that way for me. If there is a problem I over think it. I am unable to move my brain away from the problem. Thank you for the perspective.

It is a struggle for me as well. The fact that I was in the present and calmed myself down amazed me. You are sweet thanks for the compliments. Maybe someone here can help you cope or solve your problem… you can pm me any time.

P.s. I think it’s hard too to let problems go I keep thinking until it’s over with but I’ve been practicing taking time out to not worry and I cannot always but getting a bit ok at it sometimes. Just remind ourselves to just stop and live for our own good. Not very many others will know and help so it’s up to the individual to try letting go. It’s difficult for sure. Right now im having a panic attack after going out for a long time. Back home doesn’t stop it these days, anxiety follows me but I try to say thanks but no thanks fing anxiety. You’re not going to take my strength right now. I’ll deal with you later when it’s time lol I just went OFF on anxiety

Yes I can relate. I went a long time being ok. Just trying to get control again. Once it starts I can’t seem to stop it which only adds to the anxiety. I am still trying to find the off switch again. I won’t give up. I know I can get there again. It’s just like you said I need to stop and live for my own good. Very good advice.

Snow, I just had a feeling that to im going to get in an accident so I’m in my kitchen looking outside waiting for it to feel safe. I need to buy my toad worms … and kiddos some healthy food …trying to go easy. A lot of drama in my head atm some things are so triggering right now.❄️ P.s. I like your description of the nature. I’m tempted to stop by a park but I can’t stand to be near people right now. I’m so vulnerable atm everything is scaring me.

Hi I know the feeling of not wanting to be around people. I started my profile today and I hope that my anxiety and depression will not stop me from posting.
