Thank you my lovely reader for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful day or night wherever you may be! <3
I’ve recently started meditating! I was always skeptical of it before, but once I started taking time out of my day to do it I felt better. It was like all of my stress and anxiety was flowing out of me and into the world to be dissolved. I finally started to feel and be my best self!
I love hearing about people’s experiences with meditation so thank you so much for commenting!
You don’t need to do all that to be happy.
You can actually just be happy with where you’re at if you allow yourself.
I agree! It is all about one’s mindset ^^ These are just little pointers to help in case anyone needs it

Not really a new hobby but I am trying to pay more attention to me. After years of abuse I have let myself go. I have restarted learning to crochet. I have started cleansing and moisturising my face. This year I am trying to find me. Thank you.
