Conciousness

Most days I don't know where to begin, but I embrace it. It is when my mind is still and completely clear that my best thoughts and ideas flow. It is also during those times that I am able to understand the components I question. When something doesn't work, I'll play with it for a little bit - but then I get up, walk away and do something else. Then it comes to me. With allergy season in full effect it is a little bit harder to still my mind, as breathing and bellybutton to spine are the techniques I use to stay calm.
I woke up angry today, and I changed my mood on my own. I thought about what I was irritated about. My baby was sick last night, and I was having the hardest time staying strong. It took a lot for me to finally cry. And to literally have a discussion with God and the Universe about why I must face the challenges in my life. Why did I decide to get divorced? Was the grass really greener on the other side? Having to nurture a sick child who is literally spewing from both ends all over me, knowing I don't have a partner to tag out and take a break. Sobriety makes it harder too. I drank last night. I need to spend more time meditating throughout my day. Ujjiyay is becoming easier.

I cannot wait to get on that plane tonight, and step away from my reality. I deserve a break. I deserve a vacation. I deserve to rest. I know that I am sent challenges because I am a warrior, and I know that I will break through and reap the benefits soon. But it is not by any means easy. I used to envy other people. I used to want a more simple life, to not dream so big. But the more I deny myself my truth, my dreams, the more I'm overridden with anxiety, fear, angst, anger, etc. So as hard as it is, I must stick to it. I won't be a single mom forever, my business will continue to grow, I will finally purchase the properties I want, and I will prosper.

That being said, when I feel the moments of anger and irritation, I can guide my thoughts back to the vision. The vision of my family and I on a charter somewhere off the coastline. I don't know which one yet. The only thing I do know is that my visions always come true.

I have evolved into the 'witness' of my thoughts. #warriormentality I recommend Mark Divine's book Unbeatable Mind to anyone who is ready to take the next step in any aspect of their life. Career, family, etc. It takes great strength for me to do this work; but one thing is for sure...it's working.

Feel the night air in Perfect darkness babe

I was finally able to sleep. Water + Music are my salvation. Who knew there was something better than alcohol. And, I woke up at 10 without a hangover, that's pretty cool. I give last night a 7/10. To get those last 3 points up I would like to sleep through 1-3AM. My favorite song today is ' Perfect Darkness ' by Fink. I looked up the lyrics because it is literally so good at grounding me. "Keep those brown eyes wide open for a for this moment we own for now. And everything we gonna do we do it. See the black clouds fall out of fear Feel it rise up in perfect darkness. Perfect darkness is all I can see. Deep water stay under. See it rolling over you head and just roll with it until it's all good yeah. Deep water a little deeper then you thought feel it going over the edge and just go with it until it's all good yeah. Compass points out in all directions. From this moment we over now . With everything we do we gonna do it . And everything we do...

Have You Ever Had A Panic Attack?

Imagine being alone. Knowing that you are on your own, and nobody is going to help you. Imagine, having a child to raise alone, a hyper active 5 year old boy, who you can never seem to calm down, and for whom you still resent his father for leaving you two alone to deal with life. Imagine, trouble catching your breath when you're standing in your own kitchen, gasping for air as you smear butter on your son's toast, hands shaking, feeling weak at the knees, as if you are going to die, or at least pass out at any second. Your son runs around in the background, yelling playfully, and the more you try to hide what is happening, the more you scare yourself. You try not to think about it, because you know if you acknowledge it - it will get worse. Once again, you find yourself with little income, working just one job because you needed a break from all of the others, and now the company that hired you and took you away from your consulting work, that made big promises to you in excha...
