Healthy Mind, Healthy Body


Lately, my mind has been all over the place, kind of like my life. IN a quick summary I got my first adult, non-seasonal, full time job a month ago, I’ve been living out of rucksack for the entire summer because of all the housesitting I’ve been doing, and lastly, I’ve been coming to terms with some personal/emotional stuff. Basically it’s been an unexpectedly non-relaxing summer and in result of all this, I have sacrificed my health and well-being.
My job has left me stressed and abusing food, the constant moving from house to house has left me without a bed nor good nutrition to fuel my body with, and my personal/ emotional issues has kept me from practicing yoga because I’m afraid of coming to terms with all of it. And because of all of this I have become a less fun, more negative person, something that worries me the most.
Luckily for me, my life journey led me to a one-night stay in a hotel suite for free (basically a work thing).
On my way to the hotel I made plans; I was going to reply to all incoming messages, write todays blog post, and have a spa night. Instead, all I ended up doing was taking a nice, cool bath, have a mini breakdown and restlessly succumb to an unconscious slumber. So much for being productive… But when I woke up this morning the answer to all my problems came to me (as well as this blog post):
I need a home.
At first I thought it was independence that I needed though I love the home I have now (my parents house), I need the freedom to spread my wings and just be. Since I returned from Spain, the house I’ve grown up in has felt less and less of a home, for no reason other than it’s just time for me to move on and out. But because moving out is so hard in this day and age I’ve given up on being productive/good to my health.
Thankfully, Kodi and I recently ordered Yourtea’s 14-day tiny teatox. In conclusion, starting this week I’m making body and health my number one priority by drinking tea and finding a gym/studio that is the best fit my body fitness needs. Wish me luck!

With Love,
