The past month has been extremely difficult for me. As time moves on, I seem to be sinking into a depression just a little more each day.
About 2 weeks ago I realized that something just wasn’t right, and it wasn’t “just one of those days.” Again, it was so much more.

We willingly do all the shit that is bad for us – smoke, drink, eat fast food, sleep with strangers, ingest chemicals…
and forget about the stuff that is good for us… move your body, eat healthy, meditate or pray… It feels good, too. (do me a favour and just nod, yes)
As I mentioned in my VBlog update today, it’s been WEEKS since I made time for meditation.
Why is this important to me?
Well, I’ve discovered that unless I sit still,
slow my head down,
shut my self talk up – I...
