The importance of slowing down💚

We live in an extremely difficult time when it comes to developing spirituality. Technology is amazing, but it’s also capable of clouding and distracting you from what truly is important. Cell phones have blinded us to the truth that we do not need to always be available! Sometimes, just slowing down, grounding yourself, and feeling a true connection to both yourself and this beautiful planet is exactly what we need! Yet society may make you feel that that’s not acceptable.

IT IS ABSOLUTELY ACCEPTABLE AND ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY!

We should always be there for this world and others when we can, but trying to take on too much will undoubtedly cause you to lose progress. Breathe slowly and let it go!

💔 When Love Turns into Control: My Story of Coercive Psychiatric Abuse

What happens when someone you love—and trust—uses the system not to protect you, but to silence you? I never imagined that trying to leave my husband would lead to being locked away against my will. But that’s exactly what happened. Twice. He used the legal system—specifically a “302” involuntary psychiatric commitment—to trap me. And it worked. The most horrifying part? He lied to do it. He fabricated stories. He twisted facts. He convinced others that I was unstable and a danger. And the system believed him. Because he was calm. Because he was calculated. Because he wore the mask of control. And I? I was scared. Emotional. Desperate to be heard. 🚩 What I’ve Learned When someone tracks everything you do, isolates you, and uses systems to control or discredit you—that’s not love. That’s coercive control. When they weaponize mental health laws to trap you, that’s not protection. That’s institutional abuse. When that person is on medication that affects their memory, and they admit they...

Total Eclipse of My Heart

The solar eclipse blood moon was incredible to witness. My husband, my two older boys, and I woke up at 2:30 a.m. just to see it! It was breathtaking. I have felt some strong emotions over the past week or so, and at first, I was hard on myself. “You’re backtracking. Think happy thoughts,” I kept telling myself. Watching the moon’s light be snuffed out by the Earth resonated with me on so many levels. The Earth, I’m sure, didn’t mean to snuff out its light—but it did. How true is that when compared to human behavior? I consider myself a good soul. I don’t intentionally harm anyone or anything, but I do from time to time. I’ve been toxic even when I didn’t realize it. I don’t shame myself for this—I am human, after all. Instead, I relish the clarity and gratitude I feel because of my self-awareness and ability to see the big picture. I can continue to grow and improve so that I am less likely to snuff out the light of those I love, but I acknowledge that sometimes, you can’t see past yo...

Beyond the Obvious: Exploring Hidden Emotional Splinters

There are different layers of trauma and emotions. There’s the obvious, loud trauma that you cannot ignore. It screams so loudly, and the events live inside you, waiting to be felt. Then there’s the type that hides within—maybe forgotten or simply overlooked, downplayed. It’s harder to move through hidden trauma because you may not even realize it’s there, or perhaps you don’t feel it’s significant enough to require special attention. It’s like a splinter: so small that you may not notice it right away. But if you pick at it, it becomes painful. I’ve always wondered how such a small thing can be so painful. Recently, I’ve been diving into that level of healing—the things I felt weren’t worth the attention or, in some cases, thought I had addressed and worked through. I’ve had a few topics, once acknowledged, that just smacked me in the face, punched me in the gut, and brought forth tears so unexpectedly. It made me realize how important it is to slowly dive into all parts of yourself. ...
