5 of My Favorite Mental Health Posts


From time to time, I like to draw inspiration from my past self. I love going back and reading my older blogs, journal entries, social media posts, and watching my youtube channel. Sometimes I crack up at how corny I am, what a sarcastic asshole I can be and how blunt I come off. Other times, I'm in awe of how passionate I can be about topics that I truly care about.

Lately, I've been focusing more on beauty/fashion content when it comes to my blog/social media because its something that brings me joy and allows me to be creative. But what really drives me is connecting with people on a deeper level. Connecting on a psychological level. To feel and understand what each other is going through and somehow make it easier for the other person. And the best way to help is to let them know that they are not alone.

I want to share 5 of my favorite posts related to mental health:

THINGS TO REMEMBER WHEN YOU WANT TO GIVE UP

CLEANSING MORE THAN JUST MY BODY

5 REASONS YOU SHOULD TAKE A SOCIAL MEDIA BREAK

5 THINGS TO REMEMBER WHEN PEOPLE HURT YOUR FEELINGS


All these topics are still relevant and shareable. Please be sure to share them with a friend who can relate or benefit from reading these. Leave me a comment on which post resonated with you most. I'd love to start a deeper conversation. 🖤

January Favorites (2019)

It's been such a long time since I shared my monthly favorites with you guys! If you follow me on Instagram, I have a series called "Empties" where I do mini-reviews of makeup/skin/hair products that I used up and...EMPTIED! It's become a quick way for me to share my thoughts on beauty products and I feature them on this highlight (make sure to check it out and follow me!) But since I want that old thang back (blogging), I decided to do an old fashioned monthly favorites post on the blog! So here we go.

I didn't have that many products to share this month because A)I've been breaking out and B)It's been such a boring month. I stayed home most of the time, a.k.a. I've been makeup free which means I didn't try a lot of different looks. With that said, I did discover these items that I constantly reached for and will continue to favor for a while.
