Self-Care Strategies for Mental Well Being

Yesterday was Mental Health Day - and this post was meant to go up yesterday, but I was ill with a migraine, so I didn't get to finish it in time, but I still want to mark it. As I recently wrote about my experiences with anxiety, I thought I would share with you some of my self care strategies that help my mental health.

Anxiety and Me

Today I want to talk to you about my anxiety.

I think talking about mental illness is just so important; the more we talk, the more we break the stigma.
