Lessons of a Millennial's Awakening
There are many things one can learn throughout their lifetime. Yet, in my personal experience, nothing quite prepares you for life like the lessons you learn from awakening. I myself awakened as a child. I have learned lessons that have saved me a lot of drama in my life. I have seen my friends and family go through things that I am glad that I do not have to go through. Now, I still had to go through the daily life stuff everyone has to go through, such as work and school. I found that I understood how to navigate certain situations in life a bit better, however.

It's Not Only OK to Take Self Care Days, It's Vital
We've all had those weeks where work seems never-ending, or things have just been a bit too much to handle. Some people may find the idea of taking time for themselves to be impossible with their weekly schedule, but even just putting one afternoon or evening aside to recharge can help to ease the stress and chaos of everyday life.

Change Your Circumstances by Changing Your Thoughts
We live in a vibrational universe. Everything on our planet and in our universe gives off a vibrational energy. The old saying "water seeks its own level," is not just a cliché. It is a very accurate statement because everything on this planet seeks out matches to its own vibration.

In Time
The years will pass you by and you’ll be left with memories of yourself trying to please others but never pleasing yourself, you will be left with the memories of a life that you spent trying to be like them when you could’ve just been you. And that’s what you will end up regretting most: losing yourself. You won’t even realize it at first, you’ll feel normal and accept the fact that life has passed you by and you haven’t lived, you haven’t found yourself or you chose to destroy who you were before they told you who they think you should be, and it will hurt, in time it will start burning your chest, and your body will ache, and your eyes will feel dry because you will be letting out all the tears you’ve been holding in all these years and yes — it will be too late.

The Questions This Former Exercise Addict Asks Herself For a Healthy Relationship With the Gym
As someone with a history of anorexia and exercise addiction, I know how difficult it can be to start working out again without worrying about it becoming disordered. Even 5 years into my recovery and 4 years of living without any eating disorder symptoms, there are still times when I feel disordered thoughts worming their way into my relationship with exercise. This can happen very gradually and without me noticing, so it's important to catch it as soon as possible.

Purpose Driven
I QUIT! That's it. I cannot do it anymore. I'm sick and tied of being sick and tired. I'm sure if it isn't one of those particular phrases, there are others that fall in the same family that are thought or vocalized every day, heck, every hour, by someone.

Feeling Paralysed With Worry
Do you ever find yourself, perhaps with a cup of tea or coffee in hand some time early in the morning, just sitting there staring out into space? Outwardly you may appear relaxed and serene but on the inside you are dealing with a whirlwind of endless to-dos, whens and hows. Then, when you finally come to yourself you realise that you're already running late and could have done two of the tasks that were on your mind in the time you've wasted thinking about it; you're already failing.

Quietly Screaming Help
It is never easy to admit when you need help but admittance is the first step to find people to help you with whatever the problem is; it is as simple as a passing look in someone's direction or just coming out and saying there’s a problem you need help with. It won’t make you less of a person to open up about what is bothering you; the strongest thing a person can do is admit they are weak in some areas, you admitting this can cause others to open up and admit it too. There are so many places you can go for help that it makes no sense for anyone to feel like they are alone and have no one they can talk to about any and everything. I can attest to feeling I have no one to talk to about certain things, and most of the time I try to fix what ever it is that I know needs fixing on my own, no matter how big it gets or how out of control it gets. We all have things that we need to get some help for and we all have things that no matter what goes on we will try to keep to ourselves.
