Mental Health Tool

One of the most underrated mental health tools is writing things down. Not to solve everything. Not to be perfect. Just to get things out of your head and onto paper. That’s why therapy works. That’s why venting works. Expression creates relief. If you can’t talk to someone right now, write. Journal. Write messy thoughts. Write poetry. Write without editing yourself. The more you do it, the more you’ll understand your emotions instead of fighting them. And when you understand where they come from, you can finally start changing them.

Have you ever tried writing things out when your mind feels heavy?

Pay attention to your inner voice today.

The words you choose shape your inner world.

Not just the ones you say out loud, but the ones you repeat quietly to yourself.

Notice how you speak when no one else is listening.

Is your inner voice honest, or harsh.

Is it helpful, or just loud.

Does it bring care into your life, or more pain.

Self love begins when you stop attacking yourself with words.

When you pause before speaking and choose something gentler instead.

One small practice that helps is gratitude.

Even on hard days, softly saying “thank you” can interrupt the spiral.

Not because everything is perfect, but because you are still here.

The way you speak to yourself matters more than you think.

Would you speak to someone you love the way you speak to yourself.
What would change if you softened your words just a little. 👇

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.

What’s one thing you’re willing to give up for better mental health?

Good mental health doesn’t cost money, but it costs effort. It costs patience, consistency, and the courage to face yourself. You can’t buy peace of mind. You build it by practicing it daily. So ask yourself, are you putting in the work for your mental health the same way you would for your physical health?

Motivation Monday

This quote stopped me in my tracks!

How can you slow down to be inspired today? It might be seeing a bird in winter, hearing a song that cheers you up, the laughter of a child or a show that brings a laugh. I hope whatever it is, you are inspired by something that happens today. ✨

Maladiemon Fatiguely!

#Fatigue is a tricky symptom associated with conditions like #MultipleSclerosis
, #RheumatoidArthritis , and #Cancers . Meet #Fatiguely . It’s so much more than being tired. It’s feeling like your body is filled with heavy metal. Every action, even breathing, takes 2-3 times the energy than it does for someone without illness. Sleep doesn’t fix it and you experience extreme #exhaustion . #actnow #raredisease #chronicillness
