Coming out of a funk...will send soon♡

[Mah Nu]

Been in a bit of a funk lately which has gotten me behind on my replies...family issues, global/local crisis, anxiety etc etc... fortunately with the support and love from friends (some from our IUOMA community) I'm bouncing back and feeling inspired once again♡ If you sent something to me in the past couple months and haven't gotten a response back.... you will! Thank you for understanding and thank you to some new friends I've made on here who have reached out. Its truly means so much♡ 

~Love, Light, and Art♡

Yeah I was in a funk yesterday morning for similar reasons. I wrote an article awhile back about self-help techniques for depression. I'll put a link to it here and a link to a self-care Pinterest board. My husband and I have decided to go TV free and are cancelling almost all media except the bare minimum of ones we need for our work. We went for a walk yesterday while it was snowing. We are going hiking this afternoon. I'm reading the horticulture therapy books my mother in law gave me for Christmas and gardening helps a great deal, but if you can't garden right now just having a good view outside, a plant in your room, a fake plant in your room, or just pictures of plants and nature is good for mental health. Hang in there. Not a therapist (yet) but I the links I'll put here are things that have helped me.

Also we all have the blessing of being able to to art, and I don't mean technical or trained ability, but the ability to allow ourselves to do it even if it isn't perfect. Since art is therapeutic that helps a great deal as well!

I feel you! I feel like time is moving slow yet super fast... Maybe its the feeling of standing still and treading water all at the same time!? Be kind to yourself and the ability/opportunity will come.
