How to manage your energy

Most of us spend our time managing our calendar.

Far fewer spend time managing the thing that actually determines how well we think: our energy.

In today's video, I share why protecting your mental energy is just as important as managing your time, along with a few simple habits that can help you stay focused throughout the day. Click on one of the links below to watch it.

Question: What's one thing that helps you recharge during a busy workday?

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:

Train your focus

Have you ever sat in front of your computer, read the same sentence three times, and still couldn't focus?

It doesn't necessarily mean you've lost your ability to concentrate. More often, it means your brain needs a little help getting back into a rhythm.

In today's video, I share a simple technique you can use to rebuild your focus and get more out of your workday.

Question: What's the biggest thing that steals your attention during the workday?

Just a snap shot of the San Pedro cactus blooms over the years. Its almost prehistoric looking as you can see the bloom pod grow has protecting scales before they bloom. Starts off as a small nub with hair in it on the side or top of the cactus. Wanted to share some positive pictures something I enjoy.#MentalHealth #MuscularDystrophy #RareDisease #DegenerativeDiscDisease #ChronicPain #Anxiety #Fibromyalgia #PeripheralNeuropathy #CervicalRadiculopathy #Disability #Diabetes

NewIf you’ve spent any time online lately, you’ve probably seen the term “GLP-3” floating around — usually described as the next step after GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy. It sounds official, almost like a sequel. But the actual story is a little more specific and a little different from what the name implies. Bodies, [...]

How to help your brain switch gears after vacation

As many of you know, I'm the co-founder of Hird, a company developing technology to help people better understand and improve their focus, stress, and mental effort at work.

One of the ways we want to make a difference is by sharing practical, science-backed knowledge that anyone can benefit from. That's why we're launching Hird Mental Fitness Week.

Every first week of the month, we'll be sharing a short video each day exploring practical strategies to help you improve your focus, manage stress, and support your mental wellbeing at work.

This month's theme is Returning Strong.

If you've just come back from your summer holiday and you're wondering why you're already feeling overwhelmed or mentally exhausted, today's video is for you.

Your brain hasn't forgotten how to work. It's simply switching gears.

I'd love to hear from you. What's the biggest challenge you face during your first week back after a vacation?

~ Thanks to all. Thanks for all. ~

You don't have to be perfect all the time. It's ok to be exactly as you are.

We put so much pressure on ourselves to always be positive that we start believing there’s something wrong with us the moment we feel sad, anxious, frustrated, or overwhelmed. But emotions aren’t signs that you’re failing. They’re signs that you’re human.

One of the biggest turning points in my own recovery was realizing that healing didn’t begin when I finally felt happy. It began when I stopped fighting every uncomfortable emotion and started listening to what those feelings were trying to tell me. Pain isn’t always something to get rid of as quickly as possible. Sometimes it’s a signal that something in our lives needs attention, compassion, or change.

You don’t have to pretend you’re okay to be making progress. You don’t have to smile through the hardest days to prove you’re strong. Real healing comes from being honest with yourself, treating yourself with kindness, and trusting that no emotion lasts forever.

What emotion have you been giving yourself permission to feel lately?

~ Thanks to all. Thanks for all. ~

Life is tough

Most of us spend our lives trying to avoid difficult things. We put off exercising because it's uncomfortable. We avoid difficult conversations because they're awkward. We neglect our mental health because sitting with our thoughts can feel overwhelming.

The problem is that avoiding those things doesn't make life easier. It usually replaces one challenge with another, and that challenge is often much harder.

The discomfort of exercise can become poor health. The discomfort of looking after your mental health can become years of unnecessary suffering. The discomfort of one honest conversation can become a relationship that slowly falls apart.

Life isn't about finding the easy path. It's about choosing the difficulties that build a better future instead of the ones that slowly make life harder.

What difficult thing have you been putting off that you know would improve your life if you finally faced it?

~ Thanks to all. Thanks for all. ~

NewEveryone gets thirsty. You sweat, you skip water for a few hours, you eat something salty — your body taps you on the shoulder and says, “Drink something.” You do, the feeling goes away, life continues. Polydipsia is thirst that doesn’t switch off. You drink a full glass, sometimes a full pitcher, and ten minutes [...]

New city new friends

Hi everyone! I recently moved to the Seattle area and would love to make some new friends. I’m chronically ill, so my life looks a little different than most people’s, but I enjoy coffee chats, walks on good days, crafting, plants, farmers markets, and spending time with my dog. It can be hard to meet people as an adult, especially when health challenges are involved, so I thought I’d put myself out there. Feel free to message me or comment on this post and say hello❤️ #EDS #EhlersDanlosSyndrome #Spoonie #AutonomicDysfunction #Gastroparesis #MastCellActivationDisorder #ChronicIllness #ArnoldChiariMalformation #Syringomyelia #Diabetes #ChronicPancreatitis #ChronicPain #Friends
