Winslow Memorial Park Nature Trail

Random adventures don’t always happen for me because I work better when I have an actual plan. I have always been a planner and when something goes wrong or changes, it really throws me off. I haven’t always been the best at handling these types of situations, but I have been working really hard at trying to bounce back when things don’t go as planned. On the day that I did this trail, I woke up…

Gratitude Challenge~Day 2 ~ ✨Nature✨ I am especially grateful for Nature! It is my happy place, where I feel grounded. Whenever life gets to be too much, time in nature brings everything back into prospective. But what I’m most grateful for in Nature is the wildlife. I love animals and I feel it is such a blessing when we encounter them. #eagle #nature #animals #snake #prayingmantis #mink #deer #wildlife #peaceofmind #tranquility #findingpeace #innature #myhappyplace #happyinnature #wildlifeaddicts #wildlifelover #groundedingratitude #gratitude #graditutechallenge #thankful #natureinmybackyard #natureismyreligion https://www.instagram.com/p/CkdhbRGOhnq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Peace at the end of a long day. Forehead kisses every night. Predictability, stability, a safe place to lay my exhausted, over-worried head, where I know I'm loved and protected. Knowing someone's got you, always. That's good stuff. #loveanyway #loveyourselffirst❤️ #strongwomen #stressedout #anxietylife #tiredAF #overthinker #datingafter40 #lovelikethis #findinglove #healthyrelationships #followyourheart #makeyourownmagic #createalifeyoulove #foreheadkisses #whatloveis #findingpeace #followyourarrow #fallinginlove #datingishard #loveisbeautiful https://www.instagram.com/p/ChTWjQOLH3k/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Last Goodbye: A Journey Towards Healing and Closure

The Ups and Downs of a Grief Journey I was in the process of writing a different article, one about how to live a life to be proud of, not one about saying goodbye. But, as with any grief journey, there are good days and bad and I’ll eventually get to that article, just not today. Today wasn’t the worst, but it could have been a better one. I’ve had more than a few not-so-great days this week.…

Is Equine Assisted Learning Science Based?

First of all to answer the above question. Yes, it is science based and proven. Now we move on to the question; what is herd interaction during Equine Assisted Learning sessions. I was asked what a horse herd interaction session may involve, here is my answer. “When people have stress in their lives they can be dis-regulated. Therefore before I can take them into the field to have a herd…

Feeling Grumpy? Blame the Stars!

Hey, have you heard about Mars conjunct Saturn? It's like a cosmic tug-of-war happening up there.

**Basically, things might get a little tense for the next couple of weeks.** Think of it like that feeling right before an earthquake – everything feels a bit on edge. Don't be surprised if you see a crane wobble or hear about some bumps in the road (literally or figuratively!).

**If you're feeling grumpy or short-tempered, that's totally normal.** Just be aware of it, and maybe take a breath before you react. If you sense a potential conflict brewing, try to de-escalate instead of adding fuel to the fire.

**Look, we don't have to walk on eggshells, but a little awareness goes a long way.** If someone's pushing your buttons, maybe take a walk or change the subject. It's okay to walk away from a fight sometimes.

**And as for any big plans or projects? Hold off for a couple of weeks.** This isn't the best time to launch anything new. Once Mercury goes direct, that'll be your green light to move forward.

**In the meantime, channel that Mars-Saturn energy into something productive!** Review, revise, rebuild – that kind of stuff is perfect for this transit.

This edgy feeling won't last forever. It'll ease up as April progresses. Just hang in there and we'll get through it together.

Reclaiming Joy: Navigating the Holiday Season Beyond Social Media Shadows

@ 2023 Rhys Ayr-Cullen

The festive season, bridging the end of one year and the start of another, carries a dual nature. On one hand, it's a time for joy, reflection, and creating meaningful experiences. On the other, it can bring a wave of stress, anxiety, and even despair. This contrast arises from the immense pressure and expectations wrapped up in the idea of “the season to be jolly.” The phenomenon of festive FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) is real, where it’s all too easy to feel like everyone else is enjoying idyllic celebrations with their loved ones, while you’re just trying to get by.

Social media amplifies this sense of FOMO during the festive season. As we browse through perfectly crafted images and posts, it’s natural to feel that our own lives don’t measure up to the joy others seem to be experiencing. This can lead to a mistaken belief that you're alone in feeling anxious, lonely, or despondent, while others are lost in festivities. This constant comparison can trap us in a harmful cycle of sadness and anxiety, leading to even more emotional distress.

However, there's a silver lining - there are steps you can take to counteract festive FOMO and live a fulfilling life that’s true to you.

Plan for Festive Stress: Reflect on past festivities to identify your main stress triggers. Develop proactive strategies to address these. For instance, if you dread certain family questions, prepare brief, confident responses in advance.

Live According to Your Values: Determine what’s truly important to you and engage in activities that reflect these values. Approach the festive season with a clear idea of what you hope to gain from it, whether it's nurturing important relationships or recuperating from a challenging year.

Let Your Own Values Guide You, Not Other's ‘Shoulds’: Participate in events and undertake tasks that resonate with you, rather than those imposed by societal or personal pressures.

Limit Social Media: Identify the aspects of your social media use that lead to unhealthy comparisons and set goals to reduce this usage.

Practice Mindfulness: Use the festive downtime to enhance your ability to live in the present moment, benefiting you throughout the year.

Slow Down and Savour the Moment: Take time to enjoy each moment, finding something in it to appreciate.

Cultivate Gratitude: Regularly practice gratitude to help appreciate your life more and reduce the tendency to compare it to others.

Develop Distress Tolerance: Learn to accept and move through uncomfortable emotions rather than avoiding them.

Embrace the Essence of the Festive Season: Engage in activities that help you feel part of a community and transcend self-focus.

Maintain Personal Health: Prioritise your physical and emotional health through adequate sleep, nutrition, exercise, and relaxation.

In addition, our engagement with social media doesn’t cease during the festive season. We often find ourselves sneaking a peek at our feeds, even amidst family gatherings. Seeing friends and family celebrate in grand, joyous ways can evoke feelings of sadness or stress. This ‘festive FOMO’ especially affects those away from home or working during the festive season, amplifying feelings of isolation.

The digital age can also contribute to the ‘festive blues’ - a state of anxiety or sadness during the Christmas season. As highlighted by UC Davis Health (formally known as The University of California), unrealistic expectations about ourselves and idealised family scenarios often seen on social media are common triggers. Time spent on social media can escalate this stress, affecting our social skills and emotional wellbeing, disconnecting us from real-world interactions.

Social media can be a form of escapism during Christmas, offering a respite from prying questions of relatives. However, this escape should not exacerbate stress.

Whether celebrating alone or with others, it’s vital to prioritise your well-being. Reducing or temporarily ditching social media can help avoid envy and promote genuine connections. This festive season, consider embracing real-world experiences, like a staycation, instead of experiencing it through your phone screen.

By adopting these approaches, you can navigate the festive season with empathy, intention, and a deeper connection to what truly matters.

The Breaking Point: Dealing With So Much

Preface: This is a warning that I have been trying to write something for a while, but I am all over the place. Over the past couple of weeks, I have had so many thoughts and ideas about what I want to write about. I would start, then stop, and not finish anything. I kept coming to the breaking point. Furthermore, it always seemed like I had so much to say, but nothing coagulated into a coherent…

HER ♥ and my Precious Feelings.

BEFORE

Alone and skeptical, I once stood, A world impossible, misunderstood. Lost without motive, and I had no say, Just the duty of my loved ones and someone to pray. There was no color on this earth which was filled with the brightness that my heart desired. I never understood why I was sent to this earth—was it for peace or riot?

Everything was a mess, I stopped paying attention on me and everything else. It felt forced and empty day by day. I couldn't deny, Just a soul in this material body, like a fool, I'd always smile.

Being bad to anyone never occurred to me because that's how I was raised, But why do I have to suffer? This question always phased.

Was I cruel? Was I passionate? Or what others desired from me in this world? But everything about me changed the day I met her. EVERYTHING ABOUT ME CHANGED THE DAY I MET HER.

AFTER

No longer alone, skepticism erased, In a world once impossible, her presence graced. In this fake world full of materialism, She is something that I had always desired. All the colors that seemed bland before, My heart lit to the color of her skin, so bright, warm, and welcoming. I found peace in this riot, I found a soul that was just as quiet. Now nothing felt empty, nothing felt forced, Not just my material body, even my soul would smile. I felt this feeling of bliss and blessing that I didn't feel in a while. Is this why I suffered for so long? I asked, But was it really a suffering or a lesson from the past?

And now I love, now I smile, and again I help others. All these things were lost for a while. Her smile became the most beautiful curve I've ever seen, Her voice became a beacon of hope which always calms me down. Her laugh is something everyone adored, but I cherish (because she deserves it). Her eyes so deep that I often get lost in them, Her tears so beautiful that I couldn't let them fall. Her arms so precious that I forgot every ounce of sadness, Her heart so warm it felt like home. But her sufferings and emotions were all hidden behind a door, A door that was locked so tightly that she forgot how to love.

Scared and insecure, just like me before, Knocking on that door, I found so much more. The door where I knocked, now she opens the core. Now I'm on both of my knees to heal as she healed, A connection from above, a truth revealed. It's time to turn tables, heal as you've done, Maybe we were sent, TWO SOULS AS ONE.
