No More Numbers
I’m ditching the numbers from now on. If I want to change my life, I can’t count the days; I must live. It honestly causes one to not be present in the moment. That is something that I truly want to change. Being present in the moment is so important to many aspects of life. I can’t even begin to tell you how I’ve worried about the past and the future. Neither one exists if you want to be real about it. The only thing that exists is now! So, I need to focus on my current surroundings and situations. My goal is to always bring myself back to now…

Afraid to be seen. Part 1

Well, I thought it was going smooth.
Day 3 It was an interesting day to say the least. I woke up in a good mood as usual. I was feeling great and decided to stay in my room to work on the computer. But then I felt something in my spirit and knew, uh oh, something is going on. I was right, I got some not-so-good family news. I didn’t freak out or stress; I just gave it to God and took a few deep breaths. The crazy thing is, since I ate too late last night, I decided I was going to fast for most of the day. I fasted until 3:30 pm because I lost…

So far so good
Day 2 I woke up feeling good. I was in a good mood too, which is always a plus. I did my journaling and praying, then I did my self-care. I had tater tots for breakfast. I know that is not that great, but hear me out! It is better to have carbs earlier in the day than later, right?! I did some stuff on the computer. Don’t get me started on the work I have had to do to repair my sism. I think my main Sims save is corrupted, and I am so sad about it. But, thankfully, I have another save that works just fine after all…

I’ve Had Enough
Day 1 I decided that enough is enough! I am done with feeling sick, sad, depressed, and all of these negative things. I no longer want to wake up in pain and already be worried about my day. I am done with that. I am choosing to change my life right here and right now. I woke up and prayed and actually invited in my spirit guides, arch angels, etc. I invited them to guide my mind, heart, words, and actions. I want this to be the last time I go through this, so I needed all hands on deck! I did my journaling and spoke some declarations over myself…

Advice: “I know I need to heal from my childhood trauma, but I don’t even know where to start. What’s the first step?”
First of all, you are very brave for even asking for help. Second, you are very self-aware for recognizing that you need healing. There are many routes you can take when it comes to healing childhood trauma. Now, having a therapist is wonderful for someone who has a limited understanding of what the trauma truly is or is having a hard time expressing those things. I know many people who have had great success with this. If you are more self-aware, you may not find a therapist useful. In this case, you may be able to deep dive into your own trauma and heal it straight from the root. I…

The Sims is finally working
It’s been a long week! The Sims 4 has been down due to an update, as usual. It broke all of the script mods, which caused so many issues for my game. But thankfully, the majority of the creators have updated their mods. I was so close to being done with the Sims for good this time. Especially after I have put so much effort into making content. Let’s hope that the next update doesn’t jack us up again. In the meantime, I have been working on some wedding content for one of my couples. Aren’t they so cute! I am hoping to post some images in a TikTok video…

Day 7 – Prioritizing Sleep for My Nervous System
I’ve realized how much my nervous system needs real rest. Most nights, I’m up until 3, 4, sometimes even 5 AM, knowing I have to be up early the next morning. I can’t seem to naturally fall asleep unless I take melatonin or something for sleep. But I want to change that. I want my body to have the chance to reset, repair, and restore itself. Poor sleep makes me feel on edge, more stressed, and less able to handle life’s challenges, and I know my nervous system deserves better. So for today, my goal is to be in bed and asleep before 11 PM and sleep through the night.…

Day 6 – Focusing on Gratitude
Today, I wanted to slow down and reconnect with God and with myself. I put on worship music, let my voice flow, and really focused on gratitude, for my body, for my breath, for every little thing I can do. I spoke directly to my body, reminding it that it is safe, cared for, and loved. I reminded myself that God lives within me, so I am never disconnected, even in moments of stress or fear. I could feel my nervous system calming. Gratitude shifts the brain into a state of safety, which lowers stress hormones and helps the body rest and repair. Praising and connecting with Spirit also deepens…

Day 5 – Increasing Water Intake & Supplements
Today, I focused on hydration and giving my body the nutrients it needs to support healing. I made a conscious effort to drink more water throughout the day. I kept a bottle nearby, and I was refilling often. Along with that, I took my daily supplements, which I’ve been building into my routine to support not just my nervous system, but my overall health. I went online and made sure that all of the supplements were compatible, and I made sure to look at the best times to take them. My Supplement Routine Morning: Before or after lunch: Afternoon: Bedtime: Alternating days: Benefits for the Nervous System Today reminded me…
