27 THINGS YOU MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT ME | BIRTHDAY POST

Happy 27th Birthday to me!…wow where did the time go? I celebrated my birthday in NYC with my girlfriends. We stayed at The Watson Hotel in Midtown which was a great location and the best part was the rooftop pool. On Saturday, we went to IL Bastardo for brunch and then went to Gallow Green Rooftop for some drinks and hang out. This rooftop was so pretty to take photos in as it was a garden theme. At night, we headed to Lavo Nightclub for a night of dancing with my two friends. The next…

HOW TO START TRUSTING OUR INSTINCTS

HOW TO START TRUSTING OUR INSTINCTS

MY THOUGHTS ON FITNESS AND IT’S EFFECT ON WELL-BEING

MY THOUGHTS ON FITNESS AND IT’S EFFECT ON WELL-BEING

Life can be hard on us sometimes. From an outsider perspective, many of us are perceived as the person who has it ALL. Sometimes scrolling through Instagram at least makes you believe that. Have you ever scrolled through the gram and ask yourself why your life isn’t as GOOD as someone else’s? In every day life, all of us go through experiences. We all go through bad experiences, bad moments that later on become a learning experience. Overthinking on certain topics just causes stress on our bodies and then affect us down the road.  Have you ever dealt with an upsetting situation that all you wanted to do was punch something or have a hard time distracting your mind from such negativity? I know I have. In our daily lives, we all go through ups and downs but we all find a way to improve ourselves. If you know someone who is always smiling all the time doesn’t mean that their always happy or everything in their life is perfect. Some of us hide these emotions and somehow push it through trusting that everything will be ok.
