Be Kind To Your Mind: Mental Health Edition!

👇

    It's Mental Health Awareness Month! More people than you know struggle with their mental health but don't know who or where to go to get help! Reaching out to a friend, family member or professional is always a good idea if you're feeling lost or stuck! 💡💯
    I've entered a contest for the drawing I've done up above 👆 (promoting mental health!)If you could please go and vote in it, I would greatly appreciate it! it takes seconds and doesn't cost a thing! 🥰
    It's also available in my artist shop for purchase! A portion of the proceeds from this contest will be going to an organization that helps people get the care they need but don't have the correct access to! ❤

    This is something that is SO close to me! I was somebody who needed help but didn't know how to get affordable access to it! We all know someone who has had a mental health crisis or has an ongoing crisis happening! 

    Some suffer in silence for fear they'll be judged! 💔 

    Some speak out but get ignored, demeaned and accused of needing attention. 💔

    Others get help but not the correct help and end up in a worse state than when they started because they went to ANYBODY who would listen. They listened but didn't help! 

    Mental Health affects us all in different ways. But now more than ever it's SO important to reach out for help! Do research, ask around and advocate for yourself! 

    If you don't feel like you're strong enough to advocate for yourself, find someone you TRUST that is and ask them to help you FIGHT for yourself! Because it's a matter of life and death. 

    My advice for today is this: Don't be afraid to fight for yourself, others and the ones that you love! We ALL deserve AFFORDABLE, EASY TO FIND/GET health care! It shouldn't be so hard to be HEALTHY! It shouldn't cost an arm and a leg to take care of yourself! 


XOXO

Cookie Era!

Image
  Listen, I’m in my cookie era! Here’s what I did! I made a double batch, scooped them and placed them on parchment paper to keep them separated. Placed them in freezer bags and then froze the second batch. That way I have chemical free cookies ready to take out of the freezer whenever I want and bake fresh! This way I can bake 2 if I want instead of making up a whole batch.

My Manic...

Image
     I have been stressing myself out lately about perfection. I can’t share anything I do unless I know it’s perfect. It’s probably going to give me an ulcer.       I decided today that I didn’t need perfection.      It’s not about that. I mean I’ve always known that but I am so unbelievably hard on myself that I allowed those feelings to creep in and attack my inner peace!        I haven’t felt that manic in about a year! So it was definitely something that I had to take care of right away! I almost forgot that my manic was an emotional response to stress.          I was being unappreciative of my own strengths, too hard on my personal weaknesses and turning a blind eye to my mental state.       I called it quits yesterday and decided to do absolutely nothing all day to let my brain rest and recover from my own abuse. Until inspiration hit and I decided to DOODLE.  ...

Ditch Kitty!

Image
  It’s been awhile since I’ve had an update on my little rescued ditch kitty! Sirius is thriving! he came to me at 1.5 pounds soaking wet and he’s up to 7.5 pounds now! Which is perfectly in line for his age! He’s all up to date on his vaccinations and he doesn’t have to go back for another year! (Unless he needs to!) His personality can only be described as wildly unpredictable and entertaining! His favorite things are wet food, cucumbers and pull tabs from my almond milk and playing nonstop!
