Let’s just breathe now.I feel everything is so heavy today.My severe anxiety pays a visit,and I just want to shrink —to become so smallthat no one will notice I exist.Inhale through the nostrils,Hold for three seconds.Exhale through my mouth...Again.Inhale — I am tired, and that’s okay.Exhale — I let out the heaviness in my chest.Inhale … Continue reading Rest

Mid-week
What have you done for yourself this week? I haven't skipped a single work out day -yes it's still Wednesday- but hey! Midweek is the most crucial time to check on ourselves I installed a money tracker app, waaay cheaper than YNAB, and way more simpler. I repeat, I started from Avery tough financial state, … Continue reading Mid-week
Good day
Good things I do today: I installed a screen time app. I remember Eckhart Tolle's advice to stay in the present moment, although as a novice I actually went back and forth from my anxiety to the present moment. I think I have reduced my screen time a lot today - although not sure, hence … Continue reading Good day
Ambition
I am feeling ambitious today! Today, I tried the 10-minute method to cut my screen time. I set the timer on my smartwatch for 10 minutes before checking my phone. My goal? Just three check-ins a day. That’s 3 x 10 = 30 minutes of screen time. Ambitious—I know! 😁 I also registered for a … Continue reading Ambition
Re-start
Today I’m making a very important decision:I’ll start over whenever I see fit.More often than not, I find myself needing to forgive myself again.I used to think forgiveness was something you do once and it’s done. One clean break with the past. I was wrong.Every inch of growth, every new understanding, requires me to forgive … Continue reading Re-start
Ask and it will be given to you.

And weirdly, I feel a big sense of relief.It’s actually a liberating concept. No need to complain — it’s … Continue reading Ask and it will be given to you.
The missing lessons
I spent over a decade in school learning how to calculate the slope of a line…But no one ever taught me how to do my taxes. I memorized the periodic table…( with fear along with minuscule understanding about why it matters to know this table).And I had no clue how interest rates worked.Or that debt … Continue reading The missing lessons

A Letter to the Woman Who Thought One Meditation Might Fix Everything Dear you,The one who thought one meditation might fix everything. I’ve been thinking about you tonight. I read your notes — the ones you wrote back in 2017. I imagine what you were thinking when you enrolled in that online happiness course at … Continue reading Evolve
A letter for me
Dear Me, You’re tired. So, so tired. And that’s okay.You’ve been strong for a long time — maybe longer than anyone realizes. You’ve worked, held the family together, taken care of those who needed you, and put yourself last more times than you can count. That doesn’t make you weak — it makes you human. … Continue reading A letter for me
Starting Over
How lucky am I to start all over again—not because I wanted to, but because I had to.How lucky am I to meet strengthin the dark alleyways of pain.How lucky am I to rebuild my life from wreckage,to gather scattered pieceswith bleeding handsand a heart that still hopes.How lucky am Inot to have gotten the … Continue reading Starting Over
