This weeks Sunday Inspiration was definitely for me! and you of course, but I needed the words… the message to my soul.

Play day had me doodling, playing with backgrounds and some art journaling. You can see it HERE.

Artist Gang Tuesday was so great…. I want to make it! See it HERE

I have for most of my life struggled with anxiety… with anxiety attacks. But through (lots) of therapy… I have learned the cause… learned how to deal with and talk myself through. I know how to recognize when it’s happening and work to breathe and do alot of self talk to bring me back to a good place. As life gets busier and my business is growing with such greatness I have worked longer and longer hours to take care of things. Work is good. business is good…. it’s all good! However, when I am so busy, I forget to pay attention to myself, my soul, my personal care…. and this last week I had a GIANT panic attack…. anxiety attack to the max. I haven’t been this out of sorts in a long time…. I did my exercises, my breathing, but I was way in it before I realized it was happening. At this point it’s about focus, breathing and just concentrating on everything is going to be ok….. I say it over and over….. I was getting on a plane in two hours…. breathe! The crazy thing is, I went over the past week or so and nothing big had happened, I had some changes in my world but nothing bad or stressful. The only thing that had happened was lots and lots of work and deadlines and stuff…. It’s life! just life! It took about a day and I was back to normal……….  I say all this to say…. life sometimes is crazy, and hard, and good, and a blurr…. and we all have our triggers that tell us to slow down…. or take a walk, or go to the gym or whatever it might be for you…. and breathe…. just breathe. Listen to your soul when it’s calling. Take care of yourself.

Take some time this week to breathe, put down the list and have fun… create or walk.

It is ok to take care of our bodies AND our souls. And it’s ok to talk to a professional if life feels too overwhelming…. it’s really, really ok!

And if you can’t tell yourself that everything is going to be ok… then let me be that voice for you…… Everything is going to be ok! Everything is going to be ok! Breathe and know that you are loved.
