Spreading awareness and knowledge is ONE thing I can do to help promote better understanding, acceptance from others, and better care for us chronic wellness warriors!
I'm loving all that our chronic community is doing to help THANK YOU!!
A misconception with Migraine Disease is that it's just a headache and this is just NOT true! It is a full body attack on the mind, body and spirit.
It affects cognition, sleep, relationships, digestion, mood, self image and yes, some types can cause excruciating head pain. But for me, and like many others, the other symptoms can be just as debilitating such as nausea, extreme fatigue and dizziness.
The more we share, the more we know, the more we learn, the more we grow! ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ’œ
Keep fighting for more awareness lovely warriors!๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿค—

Be LOUD about the things that are important to you!
๐Ÿง For better self awareness and personal growth
๐Ÿ’•For the ones you LOVE
๐ŸŒŽFor change in the world around us๐Ÿ–คโ˜ฎ
Be creative, read, share, watch, learn, grow, spread knowledge and awareness, and find ways to share your message with or without your voice! Yes, there are so many ways these days to be loud whether your mouth is moving or not.
For example: This pic is from a lovely post by .diaries who I had the pleasure of meeting yesterday! (Virtually of course)
And I was fortunate to meet with some other very lovely via zoom as a panel held by and it was so heart warming, enlightening and inspiring!
We talked about our journeys, what we've learned that helps us progress in our healing, and shared how although we are all at different points in our journeys, we are all on this Wellness Warrior Path together๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ™Œ
And that is truly beautiful.
Once the video is posted I'll share the link too๐Ÿ˜Š
We have such an amazing community and I'm so glad that we are all doing what we can, with what we have, and finding meaning in our lives despite our illnesses!
Such wonderful

"Love wasn't put in your heart to stay, Love isn't LOVE till you give it away"๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ’œ
I've had this framed quote for as long as I can remember. It's travelled with me from home to home, and now has a new place in our room๐Ÿ’•
One thing my new program with suggests is to switch your decor around to help build new neural pathways๐Ÿง 
So I started with the painting in our room (2nd pic) and moved it to my office. I didn't swap my baby yoda painting into our room since Chris dislikes "eyes" looking at him, so I ventured to the living room to find something to fill the empty wall space. This caught my eye and fits perfectly!๐Ÿค—
It was on a green stand that I've loved and have had for years too, so I moved the stand to my office to hold the affirmations picture my sister made me (3rd pic).
And now I feel a little more complete, a little more creative, and excited to continue learning, loving and growing!๐Ÿ™Œ
The last pic is the back of the quote that I found interesting. I'm not religious, more spiritual, but the message reaonates regardless of religion. It speaks of having wisdom of understanding to create and to TEACH!
Sticking true to my values, beliefs and goals, I will always share, spread awareness, learn and teach when I can.
Happy Weekend lovelies, hope it's filled with love for others, more understanding, and opportunities to share what we have learned

I got this one from
I think it's an important idea for us all to grasp.
Stay safe, love fiercely, spread awareness, learn, grow, share and speak up!
We are ready for CHANGE!

It's up on her ig page too but since I saved it from fb I didn't try to regram post it (if that makes sense)

CHANGE is what we need! I know, we've been through A LOT of change this year. 2020 has been full of twists and turns, high emotions, curfews, restrictions and extended time at home ๐Ÿก
But we still need more of it. Change can be scary, but we need it. And depending on how you choose to look at it, change can be good!๐Ÿง 
So how do we continue working towards changing the social constructs this nation and so many others have been built upon?โ‰๏ธ
AWARENESS!!๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ’œ
This is my theme for the month of June. Not only is it but right now we are also going through a global civil rights shift, a major historical revolution! Not to mention the pandemic we've all been affected by๐Ÿคฏ
Spreading awareness by sharing, learning, teaching, listening, and peaceful protesting are just some ways we can help facilitate this change we've been yearning for and working towards for generations๐Ÿคž๐Ÿ™Œ
Being a has taught me to put my health first through my and the world's mental health needs to be put first right now. This revolution is a mental health crisis!
Do what you can, when you can and
In ourselves, in awareness, and in the world! ๐ŸŒŽ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ’ช

Good morning, happy monday, good ol' start of the week, It's another day, but today marks the start of ๐Ÿ’œ
This is the first year I'm really aware of all the advocacy, support and help towards spreading awareness of this neurological disease. ๐Ÿง 
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HELPS SPREAD AWARENESS!
And not just for invisible illness. Awareness of the mind, the body, the spirit and all that connects it.
Awareness of what works and what doesn't.
Awareness of what's wrong with the system and actual advocacy for change!
Awareness of the change that we yearn for and work towards seeing one day.
AWARENESS will be my theme for the month as you will see in my upcoming posts. Here I drew some of the symptoms I feel when a migraine attack hits to help show how this full body and mind attack affects us with Migraine Disease.
So much love to everyone ๐Ÿ’š I look forward to learning more, growing together, and supporting each other as we continue to fight the chronic fight as ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ’ช

Our garden is growing!! Look at all those squash blossoms ๐Ÿคฉ
It's been taking a few extra days to get my digestion back on track after a nasty IBS and mood flare. I still feel like I'm recovering.
But going out into my garden and seeing how these plants grow, wilt, get eaten, produce and prosper gives me a sense of ease and gratitude that there is beauty in my growth too. Even if it feels like ๐Ÿ’ฉ sometimes.
I hope your week is going well! Lots of love to you ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ’ช

Reminding myself that I am trying my best and to give myself grace, acceptance and love๐Ÿ’•
It's been a rough week emotionally for me. I've been riding that chronic coaster with out being able to see when the next drop or incline is ๐ŸŽข
Although I know I've been having a harder time and that's why I'm trying new meds, talking with my therapist/CBT, meditating, talking to loved ones, asking for help and support, doing my daily self care and adding extra time in...
it's still hard.
But then all the time, effort and growth mindset I've been learning chimes in to remind me to STOP being so hard on myself๐Ÿง 
I can be a little kinder, more understanding, less harsh and judgemental. I can be who I WANT to be and that right there is what helps me get through the tough times. It grounds me and reminds me that I can be a strong, resilient, kind, and loving WELLNESS WARRIOR!
And that's exactly what I live to be๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ’ช
I hope this long weekend gives you some extra self care sunday time with self love vibes!
