After yesterday’s affirmation about love and support being all around me, I was thinking about self love and what a good affirmation on that topic might be.

We are Not Alone: Moms Mental Health Support {Printable}
If there’s one thing I’ve learned during the past 10 years through infertility, pregnancy and motherhood … all tied up in a bow with mental illness … it’s that none of us are truly alone.

Can Old Habits Die Easy?
Living in the pit of depression, old familiar habits die hard.

Conquering Depression: 30 Days of Positive Affirmations
I’ve been going through a difficult time the past few months. It’s quite like living in a haze where true joy escapes me. It’s not related to something outside of myself. My life, my work and my home certainly aren’t terrible. There’s a lot of love to go around actually. If I looked from the outside, I wouldn’t see a reason. […]
I am Beyond Tired: Help for Insomnia
Disclosure: I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for the National Sleep Foundation. I received a promotional item to thank me for my participation.

I have the hardest time remembering what to say when I visit a doctor. During the days prior to my appointment I spend time thinking about the symptoms and/or feelings that I should address, but when I sit down and face her, much of it just floats away. The stress of that day presses in. All that I need to […]
