Recently I have gotten into meditation to help clear my mind as well as help me sleep, AND ITS WORKING!! I was actually really shocked when I did it. The first time using the new app(recently), I did one with aviva, and then once it was done we were both just like “nap time” and I have been using this to my advantage since! I have started using an app called “plum village” that my father recommended to me. And you can choose is you want to do a guided meditation or not and a guided is something I prefer to do!  In using this to help clear my mind it has helped me be able to get much better sleep and have a more productive day! I try and do one every few nights so I’m not over using it but this has been so helpful to me. Once I do a meditation I feel so refreshed and like im leaving things that I don’t need to hold on to in the past. Which I have had a lot of things that have been weighing me down lately and in doing a meditation it has made me be able to breath and just take a step...

This has been on my mind for quite a while. I have been trying to achieve this and I haven’t been successful so far. At this moment I am so caught up in the future and what I am to do with my life. I have final exams coming up in a few weeks which has been really hard on my mental health. And I have been extremely scared of if I fail and then what do I do from then. But I just have to focuses on studying and if it does come to that I will take it as it comes. Altho that is hard to come to that point. I also have an amazing support system and people backing me up. Altho I have been really struggling with this because it feels like my whole life depends on this. But it doesn’t. If I fail one exam my life is not over. So I have to start thinking about the whole picture. Trying to stay in the moment. Such a hard thing and will be really worth it if I can achieve it.  -numbers- Sit-ups - 6935 push-ups - 7210 hand - 172 weapon - 425 Aok - 777 kilometers - 590 blogs - 24 + 1 sparring...
