Practical Tips to Manage Stress


MSMonday: Practical Tips to Manage Stress This past year has been a DOOZY. We all had such high hopes for 2020, but alas, 2020 had other plans for itself. Staying home, businesses closed, limited interaction, the world as we knew it is drastically different now. And this can bring an intense feeling of anxiety, overwhelm, […]

5 Things You Can Do For Your Mental Health


5 Things You Can Do For Your Mental Health Since this is mental health awareness month, and my previous gig was a mental health therapist, I tend to care a lot about this topic. Unfortunately the term “mental health” gets a bad rap. People seem to be quite afraid of it and what it potentially […]

Surviving MRI’s and Other Life Stresses


If you’ve ever been so fortunate to visit the hospital for specialized testing, MRI/CAT scan/CT scan etc, you know it is not something to be thankful for. Hospitals can evoke extreme anxiety for many people, just by their atmosphere alone. Not to mention the reason for being there in the first place. I’ve had my […]

Disability is in the Eye of the Beholder


I filled out a job application the other day (just for a side gig, nothing big) and the question that is becoming ever more popular on applications these days popped up. ‘Are you Disabled?’ It went on to give some legal jargon about how they don’t discriminate and invite you to answer the question, however […]

Driving the Struggle Bus. How to be in Control of ‘Those Days’.


Some days you just don’t have it. Or at least I don’t have it. Some days it’s a struggle to find the motivation for most anything. Sunday day was one of Those Days. Those Days can happen for a multitude of reasons. When I’ve accepted it’s a Day, dissecting the reason behind becomes much easier. Sometimes […]

Paleo F(x) Part 2: Saturday


My recap continues with Saturday! Saturday started out with Mark Sisson (has anyone noticed he looks like Harrison Ford? Just me? K.)  He was discussing the research in his new book Primal Endurance, where he discusses a new training paradigm about how to train for endurance races/events while following a Paleo protocol and also discusses how to become […]

March 1st, The Start of MS Awareness Month


Today is March 1st. The entire month of March is MS awareness month. The week of March 7 is MS awareness week. It’s safe to say that MS is going to be all around for a little while. In the past I haven’t participated in these days, weeks or months very much. The most I have done […]

How to Let Go: A Story of Boxes in Basements


Ok. I’ll throw it out there. Le Hubby and I live with my parents. We have been for about 10 months. We would love to own a house in the NEAR future, so we had to make that decision in order to do so. It’s been interesting, to say the least, but overall a positive experience. […]

This is what came through during my meditation this morning.

I’ve been feeling so BEHIND lately..
That I’m not doing enough..
That progress isn’t happening fast enough..

But that’s a lie.
I’m right where I should be.

I needed this message today… maybe you do too?

This is how I slowly helped myself the most:
Making small changes to my life,
* Intentional awareness to my morning
* Noticing when I’m being mean to myself 
* Noticing when I’m reactive or in a state of fight or flight..

Some “small” ideas for you too:
* don’t grab your phone first thing in the morning, take some deep breaths, think about how you want your day to go
* drink an extra glass of water (bonus if it’s in the morning too)
* get up and move every hour
* say something nice to yourself when you catch yourself being mean
* step outside for a few minutes a few times a day

Small changes add up to big steps forward,
don’t get fooled by these not being “enough”,
they absolutely are. 

Wanna hear more about how Ive helped myself and my clients to lessen our MS symptoms so we feel better in our bodies?

I detail it in my chapter in Resilience Redefined.. comment “Book” and I’ll send you the link!!

You don’t always have to love the hard action you’re taking to reach your goals.

You just have to show up.

You can do this… keep going 🧡🧡

*after discerning there’s no *actual* issue (pain, injury, illness etc) preventing me from working out, only that I’m a toddler and don’t wanna.

“Resilience is the process and outcome of successfully adapting to difficult or challenging life experiences, especially through mental, emotional, and behavioral flexibility and adjustment to external and internal demands.”

Struggling to start with exercise?

Try this tip!!

Creating a new habit (any of them) necessitate us to become someone new, someone different than we were.

Because we’re trying to do something different after all.

This is gentle way of starting that identity shift process.

Become who you want to be in your mind first.

Does this help?
What other habits do you need help with? Let me know in the comments!!

It’s only fitting that I announce my 2nd book (along with 7 other authors) on my 14 year anniversary with MS.

This is a book that I would have loved to read early on in my journey.
It’s about how we moved through our diagnosis and came out the other side for the better.

““Resilience Redefined” is not just a collection of stories; it is a call to action. The authors challenge those living with an autoimmune disease to not only survive but to thrive”

So… drumroll please…
Pre orders are officially open!!

This is obvs one option of many on how to help yourself through these moments.

But when you’re stuck in negative worrying, don’t forget there can be a positive outcome too!

This is rewiring your brain in action.

You notice you’re doing something you always did,
Then do something different.

And boom! A new pathway is born.

It needs some love and attention to grow,
so keep practicing!

There’s so much buzz about everything needing to feel good if it’s right for you.

Sure, there’s a time and a place for alignment.

But, growth often happens in the uncomfortable moments.

Just a reminder.
Keep going.
