Sometimes you have to just force yourself out of your comfort zone, and push yourself to new limits.   Then, when life throws your hardships your brain and body are trained better to take them on.

Typically the challenges I have given myself have been those of physical feats. They have helped me out in regards to my mental health, but this month, I wanted to challenge myself with something more mental. I thought “What better way to start the new year than to be grounded and more mindful?” So I mean this challenge, and called it the Month of Mindfulness!   Stick around to hear the rules I ha...

Life is a blessing. However, it can be very easy to forget the purpose of the downs, the low times, the depressing times, those dark days when you’re in them.   When you feel numb, empty, and alone.   It can be easy to feel like there’s no reason to keep going, and to just want to give up.   I wanted to let you know, that whether you’re struggling with your mental health, addictions, or anything e...

From hard work, and accepting responsibility, and self accountability, my roommate Aidan and I got to sit down and chop it up.

I’ve given myself a bunch of challenges in my life specifically to boost my confidence, self esteem, increase my work ethics, and develop more discipline.   This month I am challenging myself to wake up at 4am and run 5km every day.   Some people consider this to be an easy feat, but my legs are already sore.

Losing sucks. If you’re anything like me, it’s hard not to take it personally when it happens.   Whether it’s in a video game, at work, in sports, or anything else, when you lose in life, it feels like it’s always something we have done wrong. Something you could have done better, something that someone else may be better than you at, or something you feel like you aren’t able to get better at.  ...

These 5 simple tips seem like they have been told so commonly, but when put into practice, they really impacted my mental health in a very positive way!   I wanted to share these mental health tips with you in hopes they can help you out!

Social media has had the power to influence our goals, our perceptions, and our expectations.   It’s important for your mental health to keep your expectations, and goals, tightly linked to WHO YOU ARE, WHAT YOU STAND FOR, AND WHO YOU WANT TO BE.   Try not to base these things off of what you see on social media, strive towards what YOU truly want, not what you see someone posting about.

Getting started on goals can be tough, but sticking to them can be even tougher.   This year has been incredibly difficult for so many people, including myself, and mental health has become more and more important to take care of this year as we watch cases of depression rise at massive rates.   Whatever you’re working on right now, or even thinking about starting right now, I just want you to kno...

What was that thing that you wanted to start recently?   START DOING IT!   One step at a time, or just JUMP RIGHT IN, whatever works for you.   Whatever gets you moving the needle now!
