You don’t have to control your thoughts.

Most people think mental strength comes from controlling their thoughts, but real progress happens when you stop treating every thought as urgent or true. By pausing, labeling thoughts as mental events, and redirecting attention back to the body or the present moment, you interrupt the automatic cycle that fuels anxiety and emotional spirals. This is a skill that gets easier with repetition, not perfection. Even a few moments of not following a thought can give your nervous system relief. Which thought do you notice pulling you in the most lately?

Also, if you're going through a tough time right now, I want you to know that I post daily mental health videos about how to deal with painful thoughts. So if you or anyone you know is struggling and wants help, click on one of the links below or write me if you have any questions you want me to answer

What's Up Wednesday

This is something I've been learning a lot about and wanted to share. How your nervous system feels around certain people, in certain places and with certain things is a HUGE deal! Choose environments that bring out the calmness in you. 🖤

Mental self care is not optional if you want peace

Most people treat mental self care like something extra, something they will get to when life slows down, but that moment rarely comes. Your mind needs daily hygiene just like your body does. Simple practices like a short morning meditation can create clarity and intention before stress takes over. Stepping away from screens before bed gives your nervous system a chance to settle instead of staying activated. Writing down even one moment of joy each day trains your mind to notice what actually nourishes you instead of staying stuck in survival mode. These are not big dramatic changes, they are small daily choices that slowly shift how your mind works for you instead of against you. Which of these feels like the easiest place for you to start?
