New Year, New Me

At the start of 2021, I was five months pregnant at 16, and on bed rest due to severe complications. I was sick every day, my partner was in another state, and I had no friends or family supporting me. With all of this alongside the chaos of a worldwide pandemic, I had so much on my plate I never took the time to be mindful of myself, my body, or my mind. I wasn’t paying attention as I completely unraveled, too focused on the discord to see that it want just the world around me that was in disarray.
