Meditation to Boost your Wellbeing

 

Throughout the remainder of Heart month, I would like to share heart health information because it’s very important to our survival.

Today I want to focus on meditation because it played a critical part in my healing journey. In some of my toughest times, I turned to prayer and meditation. I was already very familiar with prayer, but I had a lot to learn about the benefits of meditation. 

Some people see these two things as being one and the same, while others see them as two separate entities. Regardless of how it’s perceived, I found it to be a very useful tool in helping to regulate my emotions, quiet my mind, and relieve my stress, to name a few.  

Below is the link to a video from the American Heart Association’s website of the most common types of meditation and how they can be advantageous to our overall health and wellbeing. #ToYourHealth

The Struggle IS REAL!!

“My struggle IS real & it’s been an emotional roller coaster at times.” When I was hosting, ‘The Beat Goes On’ radio show from 2014-2018, I would often reference, ‘The Struggle being REAL’ in reference to my weight and physical health. What I didn’t realize at the time was that those challenges didn’t deal with my physical health , like I thought .  Instead, I finally had an epiphany & realized that the ‘ Struggle ’ I often spoke of, had more to do with my Mental Health than it did anything else! Conversations about Mental Health are not often referenced in a positive light, which is why many people have a hard time seeking the needed help to maintain a healthy mental balance in life . Along my journey, I’ve struggled with battles that would plague my mind about my health and well-being. I would accept, receive and believe all the negative & judgmental thoughts, the scrutiny, the demeaning words, the ‘put downs’, & the ugly criticisms that oftentimes ran amu...

UV Safety

  July is UV safety awareness month. It’s also one of the hottest summer months when people spend lots of time outside in the beautiful sunny weather. This is the season when we’re enjoying the water & amusement parks, outside music festivals & lots of other summertime  outdoorsy  activities. With that said, it’s vitally important for us to stay hydrated and to protect our skin from the UV rays of the sun. My skin is  SUPER   sensitive, and I can’t use  just anything  on my skin. I’m what you would refer to as being,  chemically  sensitive . Several years ago,  when I was uninformed about protecting myself from the sun’s rays,  I used a popular name brand product from a well-known company that’s been around for years. The product promised to not only protect my skin from sun exposure but also repel insects as well. I figured since it was a bright, clear & crisp October day where the sun was peeking through but not beamin...

Who do YOU say, "I AM"?

When was the last time that you loved on yourself? When was the last time that you told yourself how  beautiful you are; the last time that you praised yourself for the talents that you’ve been blessed with; the last time that you acknowledged your creativity; the last time that you patted yourself on the back for something great that you did; the last time that you looked in the mirror and fell in love with YOU… not because of your outward beauty but because of the beauty that you feel resonating from within.  OH! You don’t remember the last time?? Is it because those are not things that you’re in the habit of saying to or about yourself? Are you instead, in the habit of acknowledging all of your faults, your mistakes, your shortcomings, your insecurities, the problems in your life? Do you tend to beat yourself down and say demeaning things like, “I am so FAT…”; “I’m unhealthy“; “I am not worthy”; “I’m so slow”; “I am not as smart as…”; “I’m certainly not qualified to…”; ...
