Self-Care

Anxiety is the Struggle

I struggle with anxiety. Massive anxiety, at times. I’ve worked very hard the past four years to learn healthy coping skills, how to pinpoint my triggers and the importance of listening to my body. It’s daily work, but work that has the best payoff – inner peace. Don’t get me wrong – this peace takes daily practice, habit, and routine. I’m not perfect at it in the least. I have days that I forget to prioritize it. Many days.

If you struggle with anxiety in any form, I understand you and know your fear. Very well. Please know that your love and light is stronger than your anxiety. The journey in finding the right path for YOUR peace is your own and I encourage you to start taking the steps (or crawls, if that is what it takes) towards this adventure for YOU.
