Conquer Your Mind 2h

Invite stillness into your life

Your mind is constantly running—thinking, planning, analyzing, worrying. It doesn’t stop, and that’s why you feel so drained.

Stillness isn’t about doing nothing. It’s about creating space between your thoughts. It’s giving your mind a break from solving problems that don’t exist yet.

When you invite stillness into your life, you make room for peace to return. You think more clearly. You breathe more deeply. You begin to see that not every thought needs your attention.

The more you practice stillness, the more your mind learns that it’s safe to rest.

When was the last time you let your mind truly rest?

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 I recovered from depression and suicide back when I was a teen. So if you or anyone you know is struggling with these issues and wants help, click on one of the links below or write me if you have any questions:

I'm new here!

I am living with stage IV metastatic bladder cancer. I am back in remission but still in treatment and we're not sure when we can stop. This is my second time in remission. I decided to write a book of poetry about my journey. The book is called: Still Here: Fragments of Life in Cancer and Bloom. Here is a description and a link: Still Here is a poetic journey through cancer, love, and resilience. Written by Akiva Turner—anthropologist, lawyer, public health professional, and Chair and Professor of Health Science at Nova Southeastern University—this collection bears witness to the griefs, grit, and unexpected grace that surface in the face of illness. Turner was diagnosed with muscle-invasive bladder cancer in 2020, as the world was reeling from the COVID-19 pandemic. Misdiagnosed for months, then thrust into surgery and grueling treatment, he learned that his cancer had already spread to the lymph nodes. After years of remission, the disease returned as Stage IV metastatic bladder cancer. Today, he writes while living in fragile balance: in treatment, but also in remission—“no evidence of disease.” These poems trace that odyssey, weaving moments of pain with flashes of humor, tenderness, and defiance. At their heart is a love story: Turner’s life with Avi, his partner of more than thirty years, as they face illness together. Still Here is both deeply personal and universally human—a testament to endurance, vulnerability, and the power of hope. a.co/d/1aFi10W

Hi, my name is ResistFascism. I'm here because 20 years of battling cancer has worn me down. I need time with my tribe of others dealing with the same.
