Lockdown is coming and being locked in a house with the same people may drive you a little bit bonkers and play games with your mental health so here is an article on how to survive lockdown!
If anxiety is left unchecked, it can roam free and absolutely decimate your happiness. If you want to learn to not only control it, but defeat it, then you have to learn about it, what drives it, why it affects you. But for now, I have my top tips on how to handle it on a day to day.
These are my personal tips that I use day to day, they may not be relevant for everyone but they are what I do and they help me! So if you are a little like me, maybe they can help you too!
Welcome to The Grow Yourself Book Club
This is a safe space for you to breathe and say, you know what, I am not perfect and that is okay, I release the expectation of me and of others and I open myself up to growth and change.
I love to read and I love to read about growth. This is a short list because I learnt this very very important life lesson a long time ago. If you are going to read a book that helps you grow, it is better to read one author, pick them, study there work and implement it. Rather than read 20 books on the subject and do nothing with it.
I live by the sea. Always have. Always will. Although I prefer the land and I don’t actually like surfing or water sports, I have always lived and need to be near the sea. When I wrote this meditation, I had in mind all the amazing people around me who love the sea and are suffering with not being able to control their emotions very well. Its not an easy feat, we all get so caught up in the moment. If you are someone who has a short fuse or you’re young and you’re not sure why you have all these feelings and where they are coming from. I hope this helps you :)
I want to take a moment to chat about my secret weapon to happiness: Gratitude.
I have been having a very and down few weeks, due to me making bad food decisions and not training, I am not good at eating processed food, turns me into a grumble goose. I have been depressed, overly anxious, nit picking at myself, being negative and just being a bit of a bummer to my poor boyfriend whose put up with my questionable mood swings
Right now, the world is really uncertain and it can feel really scary. Shops are empty, a disease you can’t see or stop is spreading and there is nothing you can do to stop it. We may be able to slow the disease from spreading with social distancing and cleaning everything but I want to talk about a much bigger problem and that is your mental health, which is being decimated by this pandemic. Hopefully this article will help your anxiety while you are in Lockdown :)

Cyber bullying is an epidemic that we are all contributing too sub conciously. It is time for us all to take responsibility for the part we play in bullying other people online and stop blaming other people like trolls and the media. Don’t get me wrong, they lead the charge in being part of the problem. But we are all one some level responsible. It is time to make real lasting change and learn to be kind, even though we have been through so much.
Processing through your emotions is a hard one so I am going to do this series on processing through hard emotions.
The goal is to feel what you feel, accept it and let it go. Not to pretend it doesn't exist. We all know what happens when we ignore a child
1. It gets louder, starts screaming and it breaks things.
2. It gets depressed, feels lonely and becomes despondent.
3. They go to therapy 10 years later about their struggles and traumatic childhood.
What are flaws? They are qualities that we have that are bad. That stop us from being good people, that make us human. But do you have flaws at all or are you just incompatible with other people? And in being incompatible, how can you use this knowledge to better improve your relationships with everyone around you to create a more harmonious life.
Jade the introverts adventures through friendship and moving forward to create her dream life!
I want to talk to you about a recently change in my life. This is overtly obvious but I am a massive introvert, give me a book and a cabin and I am happy for years (as long as it was warm). For the past few years I have been pushing out of my shell to make new friends and expand my social circle outside of the ghost of my cat. I was making really good progress (as a traveler, I never made long term friends because they would be gone the next day so to make real connections with people was a big deal).
