Living Who We Were Born to Be
Have you been feeling ‘off’ or more emotional lately? Do you feel blah, apathetic, melancholic, depressed, and/or lonely? You are not alone. And there is nothing wrong with you! Until early April, everyone is prone to the sensitivities of the Universe’s emotional climate. Because we are unique, each person can experience it differently. I’ve felt …
Emotions, melancholy, and apathy really affected me for about a month. I’ve been in the process of understanding my emotions and melancholy for quite some time.

Thinking about the past or worrying about the future does not serve us. Racing thoughts, fear, stress, anxiety, and depression can all occur when we get stuck in the past or fret about the future. When we succumb to those thoughts, we lose ourselves. All that matters is now. In each moment, presence can guide …
