What I’m F*cking With Right Now:

Deep breathing. Yes. Deep breathing. 3 weeks ago, I experienced a panic attack that was completely out of my control. According to my therapist, there are two different anxiety attacks: one that stems from your thoughts and another that is purely physical. When I say physical, I mean that the anxious thoughts are completely skipped, and your body begins to go straight into an attack. That was the type of attack I had a few weeks ago.

The only way to combat the latter anxiety attack is by relaxing your body. Relax your body, you relax your mind. Cue the deep-breathing. Choosing to breathe deeply through my stomach and not my chest has done more than simply control my anxiety. It calms me down, helps me dive into a deep meditation, and allows me to slow down my thoughts.

9 Days Uncensored

Every year at the beginning of November, I try and complete 9 days worth of uncut journaling and blogging. Tomorrow is day one and I’m super excited to be back in this space, writing, being real, and for the next 9 days, being completely uncensored. Are you ready?

  1. I’ve never really thought about or tried deep breathing or even meditation, for the most part, but my neurologist is worried about my blood pressure & has suggested these as ways to try to regulate myself, so… looks like it’s time to try!
