Listen to Your Heart

In life there are 3 states we listen to, our mind, emotions, and body. However, have you ever thought of listening to the heart, instead of letting the mind take over our actions? The mind is powerful because it can take over our emotions and makes us feel at a vulnerable state. An example is right now in my life, my mind has been focusing on the future, which has not given my heart the chance to focus on the present.

I have to let my heart lead parts of my life and not just my mind. I took a deep breathe, let my heart take over and now I have feelings of happiness and sometimes despair. My mind figures out what is wrong, but my heart is telling me how to approach situations. Letting the heart guide your life flow naturally  without force is how situations turn out well. 

Even though the 3 states we listen to are important, there is a reason why our hearts' beat differently. It is telling us a message we figure out in all the states. The mind passes along a message creating emotions, and is received through the physical state. Finally, the physical state tries to solve the message through actions.  The heart's role is how we feel about ourselves and the soul is what we believe is right. Therefore, all the states have to work together in order for the whole body to succeed. 

There are different ways on how to tell our mind to stop taking over and let the heart have a chance. During my painting class, my heart was feeling everything and throughout the process, I had the feeling of being passionate and proud. My mind was only helping me focus, but did not take over how I felt about my canvas. At the end of class, I told my instructor I think my project looks great and I'm very happy and proud of what I've created. My physical state was painting and I made sure my heart felt glad and excited, while not letting my mind take over.  

Listening to the heart can be extremely powerful because its about loving yourself and what you have done. If you love yourself, then anything is possible. I feel like I can do the impossible because my heart is telling myself to love me and that's exactly what I'm doing. Each beat is telling me I'm growing and telling me to go in which direction.

It is extremely important to understand how to react when a person has a seizure. My family are the only ones who know exactly how to handle my seizures.

Why You Should Join Terrie's Boxing Club

Image
Boxing has become an absolute miracle in my life. I don't give Terrie's Boxing Club 5 stars, I give the place 10 star review. It has been one of the most amazing commitments in my life. The reason why is because boxing has helped balance, not just my job and college, but my life overall. Here are reasons why I love  Terrie's Boxing Club and encourage you to sign up and  join.  First off, Terrie's Boxing Club is a 100% judge free zone. The staff will work with anyone no matter their size, age, or shape. Respect and great customer service seems like their top priority. Second, is the employees are awesome in my eyes. My point of view about them is Spiderman's quote, "With great power, comes great responsibility". The staff tend to take this quote seriously in their own ways because everyone teaches differently depending on who they work with. Having different teaching techniques is very unique and important. An example is my boxing instructor uses different ...

Equality/ Having Blinders

Image
I believe everyone should be treated equal.  People with epilepsy should have the right to be themselves and do what they want with an invisible disability.  I feel like an outcast sometimes because epilepsy makes me different from everyone else.  People think "she had a seizure and acts awkward" and is "missing out".  Epilepsy is something that is a part of me, but it is not who I am as a person.  Many people I know love video games or movies and due to flashing lights, I could have a seizure. However, not all flashing lights bother my health. Therefore, its a typical stereotype about how flashing lights affect epileptics.   Many people tend to have blinders when it comes to flashing lights.  One day a group of former friends were going to see a movie we all liked. I  asked if I could come and they said no.  Their blinders were on, seeing the worries in me rather than enjoying my company.  They don't have any epilepsy education and...
