• I got inspired by a post I saw on social media…with the holidays fast approaching, how are you feeling?

    1. I’m feeling excited, it’s my favourite time of the year
    2. I’m feeling good, everything is done and I’m well organized
    3. I’m doing okay, I feel as though there’s still so much to do
    4. I’m not doing so good, the stress of the h…Read More

    • I think I’m somewhere between 3 and 4. A lot of people are taking time off from my work over Christmas (both jobs), which means I am having to do extra and work every day between Christmas and New Year. It’s also the first Christmas without my mum, and although I’m still excited about the holidays and all the lights, a little part of me wishes she…Read More

  • How do you get yourself through a panic attack?

  • I came across this acronym a while back and I love it.
    F-First
    A-Attempt
    I-In
    L-Learning
    Here’s what this acronym means to me:
    To FAIL is to not dwell on making a mistake but rather the process of learning from them.
    Explain what this acronym means to you. What is your biggest learning experience?

    • I agree. Each time we fail it teaches us something. It’s part of learning. Without failure there is no success. Sure, we have our moments when we get lucky but that won’t last. Things take time. You have to take the time to practice and study to get good at something. Through all that you will have times when you make mistakes. There’s nothi…Read More

    • This helps a lot. I am so use to failure that part of me just doesn’t care anymore and that I expect it. And anytime something good happens I’m just on edge waiting for that other shoe to drop. Sometimes it’s nice to have these kinds of affirmations and reminders that even though you may fail you have to keep going.

    • This is not really one moment in particular but throughout last year, my sister was struggling with her health. Both physically and mentally. She was struggling with depression and feeling suicidal. If it wasn’t for me being there talking to her every day and convincing her to keep going. I don’t know if she’d still be here. I had to be stron…Read More

    • I’m lucky to have a number of friends who have helped me through horrible times, but a recent one was this summer at camp. I’d had a rough night with a camper and didn’t know how much it would affect me, and the next morning I found myself in my cabin alone during my off time writing in my book to my mum (I filled it with stuff I wanted to tell…Read More

    • I’m lucky to have my family who helps me. I sometimes can’t handle a lot in my life and they’re the first people I rely on.

  • Happy Friday! For the last few months, I’ve come to realize that I worry too much about what I really can’t control. Because we have been talking about mental health for the last little while- I wanted to share an activity today.
    Create a worry jar! Write down all your worries on a piece of paper and then rip them into strips (or pre cut). Place…Read More
