So, today its all about #timetotalk

Its about mental health, in all its form, its not something to be silenced, or spoken of in hushed tones, so many of us go through it on some level and we are made to feel alone, like it makes us weak, like not anyone goes through it.

Mental health can affect us all, in so many different ways from anxiety, depression, ocd, bipolar and more.

It does NOT make you a weak person, its not a case of but that person deals with this and they seem fine why cant I deal with it..

We are all, so often, fighting battles no body knows about..and so often, those battles are with ourself, our own mind, our own beautiful souls.

We need to show eachother more compassion, more understanding, we need to understand that so often mental health can feel like the ocean is crashing down on us and we cant fight to reach for air. We feel trapped in the feeling, struggling to see the light, the way out and so often struggling to see how many beautiful, kind and caring people surround us, not because we are not grateful, not because we dont know in our hearts they are there…but because we cant see past the chaos in our own minds..

Self-esteem, self-love, self-confidence, waves of conflicting emotions and recently anxiety have been my most prominante issues.

Just because I help people through my work, my wonderful wonderful work, I love it with all my heart, I know how much it helps, to heal, to meditate, to journal, to work on yourself, my gift has always laid in helping others with this, with finding their light, their love for themselves, their confidence, their vocation.
Why dont I use it for myself you ask? I do! AND when I do all the above my god dont i feel different, i feel whole, i feel grounded, i feel stable and i feel free but guess what, when you get smothered by unrelenting emotions, stresses, it can be so much easier to allow it to rush you down the river then it is to fight the tide alone..

I also know, that I am blessed in that I am not alone.. however, another thing that mental health so often  manages is to create a false feeling of isolation, of having no-one, of not being good enough.

SO much is in my past, SO much has been overcome and SO much is still to be faced!

But I am not… YOU are not…WE are not alone..

YOU ARE ENOUGH

YOU ARE WORTHY

AND YOU CAN BE BRAVE AND SHINE THAT BEAUTIFUL LIGHT

YOU .. can make a difference in this world
