YOU deserve PEACE and HAPPINESS.
Giving yourself the opportunity to experience peace and happiness in spite of life's challenges is a gift. It is also a challenge. Having a neutral perspective from an outside source can sometimes shed some light into the path to peace and happiness.

Consultation
I am the BEST me I can BE.
Starting with encouraging mantras can benefit the outlook of ourselves and prepare us for the outside world. Our insecurities and self doubts get in the way of living to our full potential. Be your best cheerleader. Don't give in to the little voice in your head which whispers fear and doubt. Use a mantra to encourage you when faced with a difficult situation. Talk to others and reason things out to find a plan of action. Fear is essential to keep us safe in unsafe situations. However, sometimes fear runs amuck in our lives and keeps us stuck and impairs our growth. Be the best YOU, you can be.
TAKE BACK
YOUR LIFE.
"Having depression, anxiety or panic attacks is not a sign of WEAKNESS. They are signs of having tried to remain STRONG for too long...1 out of 3 people experience these at some point in their lives" Mental Health Awareness.
Sometimes the way we have remained strong has inadvertently been neglecting our self care. Self care can be as simple as scheduling meals, taking a shower, getting outside. When we meet our needs and nurture ourselves we are better prepared for those things that challenge us.
Making time for our needs is important. Life can get hectic and demanding. The pace of our life doesn't slow down for our needs. We owe it to ourselves to make the time.
-
Throw healthy snacks into a bag when running errands and skipping meals may be inevitable.
-
Take a shower at night, (when everybody is sleeping) so you have time to refresh and free up your morning.
-
Stand outside the door to get some fresh air, warm sun on your face and change the scenery.

My momma used to tell me "life is suffering". I never bought into that philosphy. If life is supposed to be suffering, where do the happy things fit in that paradigm? I figured my momma was a glass half empty kind of person. I have found that when something in our life "goes wrong" or rather doesn't go the way we anticipate it, we suffer. We feel stuck. Life isn't good.

Suffering comes wanting to control and change the things we cannot change and having things feel "unfair".

The things that seem unfair or cause suffering may be small or large. From getting ALL red lights while I'm driving to my destination to getting a phone call from the trauma room in the local ER telling me that my 16 year old has been in a terrible collision. Life is filled with things I cannot change. Accepting these as they are is very difficult sometimes. At times we want our way and we feel our way is best. Life does otherwise. How do we go through these times with the least amount of suffering possible?
Acceptance of those things we cannot change, opens up the opportunity to find the things we CAN do at those times. Coming to this realization is not easy. It takes practice. Time and time again, I must remind myself of those things, people or situations I can't change. When I don't, I feel at a deficit, hurting and useless. I suffer. When I do, I recognize I feel empowered. I find my skills and strengths which in turn give me energy to go on and do something useful.
When I accept the situations as they are, I can recognize the happy things or sometimes the possibilities. The good things give me balance to face the challenges that can cause suffering. The good things help me recognize the half of the glass that is full.
