Learning to be Happy: The Beginning

When life hits a turning point, it's hard to remain positive.
Change puts us out of our schedule.

Working full time school while being a full time student has done some damage to my mental health.
This semester has caused me a lot of breakdowns but I'm so proud of what I've been able to accomplish.
I know myself and I have learned of just how much I am capable of.

Through my chaotic lifestyle this semester,  I've observed that I did get too wrapped up in my goals and my never-ending 'to-do' list.  I'm not proud of how self-absorbed I became.

So...
I'm going to change that.
I want to change the way I live my life.
I want to be healthier and more aware.
Aware of my life in the present instead of constantly chasing goals.
With the free time that summer allows,  I am on a mission:

How to be Happy:
1. Exercise
        Respect your body so you can better respect yourself.
        My plan:  Run- Pound your stress, emotions, and overanalyzing thoughts into the pavement
                        Yoga- Restore your body and rebuild with self loving breaths and montras
2. Meditate
        Escape from the present through the exploration of erasing
        Reconnect with yourself
3. Educate
        Fuel your mind with podcasts and books
4. Socialize
        Make a friendships a priority and share love
5. Soul
        Express yo'self through art-making
