Personal Victories

Ever have a day where you say to yourself, “Wow!! I’m SO proud of myself for doing that!”? I most definitely had that kind of day this past Saturday. For the past 2+ years I’ve had a pretty static life. There will be progress, but then it always seems that progress results in 2 steps …

To feel supported, support yourself.

The past few months I’ve become pretty obsessed with Gabrielle Bernstein’s message of “Chose love over fear”. I’ve pretty much read all of her books and have been actively working to incorporate her messages into my everyday life. There are so many times I come across a lesson and think, “Wow, has she been spying on …

Mind.Body.Music: Celine Dion & Gratitude

When I’m in a bad mood, sad or depressed, irritated – you name it! – there are 2 sure fire ways to get me into a good mood. Christmas music and Celine Dion I know, I know. Most people aren’t a huge fan of Celine, but she’s basically my idol. I grew up listening to …

Meditation – Get Some Headspace

A year and a half ago, a friend posted something on facebook about an app she had found called Headspace. She said she had just finished the Take 10 program and was going to sign up to take the rest of the series the app offered. “I pay for a gym membership and this would be like a …

Medication: Ativan

One of my ex’s used to tell me to try his ativan when I would get a stomach ache. It was a test to see if I was getting stomach aches because of anxiety. Unfortunately, the pill just made me tired and didn’t take away my stomach ache. Last year, when my nerves were severely …

Mind.Body.Music. – Silver Lining

Obviously the name of my blog is It’s just a bad day NOT a bad life (shocking, I know right?). I definitely was among the individuals who would proclaim they had the worst life when something bad happened, but then as soon as something good happened I’d change my tune. I think this yo-yo’ing mentality …

“Are You Back To Work Yet?” – My Job While On Long Term Disability

Are you still on disability? Are you back to work yet? – I get this question so many times during a week it makes my head spin. No. I’m not back to my IT consulting job. But I do have a job. An extremely important job. Probably the most important job I could ever have. …

LifeForce Therapy

  The first time I heard of the treatment I thought ummmmmm… Ooookkk?   But before you judge, let me explain.   LifeForce therapy uses a combination of light, music and vibration therapy. The first time I heard about it I wasn’t really sold. I’ll be honest – I thought it was kinda hocus pocus. The …

Tummy Tamers {I’ll Try Anything At This Point!}

I feel like I need to start this post out by saying that I do have I a post started that I need to make a priority to finish about an amazing therapy that I’m doing right now called ‘LifeForce’. I’m going to the Avani Institute in McMurray, Pa for my protocol sessions and have …

Mind.Body.Music ~ Don’t You Worry Child!

I can’t believe I never thought about adding this song to my ‘I’m NEVER Going To Give Up!!‘ playlist until Marc and I watched the Swedish House Mafia documentary. Then it hit me – BAM – Perfect message.  Don’t you worry, don’t you worry child. See heaven’s got a plan for you. Don’t you worry, don’t you …
