5 Healthy Habits to Help Reduce Stress 🤗

Chronic stress raises heart disease and stroke risk, promoting unhealthy habits, but the American Heart Association emphasizes that reducing stress and fostering a positive mindset can enhance overall health.

The American Heart Association provides science-backed insights to help people reduce chronic stress and understand its impact on physical health.

Stay Active Exercise is a simple path to physical and mental well-being, reducing disease risk, enhancing mental health, and boosting energy, with the American Heart Association suggesting at least 150 minutes of moderate or 75 minutes of vigorous activity per week.

Mediate Meditation and mindfulness in your daily routine for brief stress relief, backed by studies showing benefits like lower blood pressure, enhanced sleep, stronger immune support, and improved cognitive abilities.

Practice Positivity A positive mindset fosters better health, longevity, improved sleep, healthier habits, and reduced stress through positive self-talk and reframing challenges.

Show Gratitude Practicing gratitude through daily reflection on three things you're thankful for can effectively reduce depression, anxiety, and enhance sleep.

Find a Furry Friend Pet ownership, especially dogs, offers numerous health benefits, including improved fitness, reduced stress, lower health risks, and increased happiness, as supported by American Heart Association research.

could you hit me just once, leave a mark split my sides for the world to see rather than fighting my mind i succumb to the blind sides of pain & agony

PLEASE push me against the wall make me fall, bleed you invalidated me long ago sowing seeds of insignificance

punch my clock leave me to rot confused by lies i’d like to see you cry innate emotional intelligence this dance has broken my defense i don’t know what to believe about me

emotionally lost my cost tossed minimized killing my confidence constantly paying penance drained soul raining

draining “stop being so emotional” my backbone no longer breaks with stones thrown

knock me out, cold tired of the toll unheard, discounted pressure mounted nailed to the cross you say you’re the boss

i now carry my weight in an altered state splintered wintered

hit me, it’s all good leave me like you should bleeding i won’t beg for my life PLEASE at least then i have a chance leave me for dead

“Telling a person she shouldn't feel the way she does feel is akin to telling water it shouldn't be wet, grass it shouldn't be green, or rocks they shouldn't be hard. Each person's feelings are real. Whether we like or understand someone's feelings, they are still real. Rejecting feelings is rejecting reality; it is to fight nature and may be called a crime against nature, "psychological murder" or "soul murder." Considering that trying to fight feelings, rather than accept them, is trying to fight all of nature, you can see why it is so frustrating, draining and futile.” ~ S. Hein ~

Finding Strength in Scripture: Trusting in God's Guidance Above All Else

In a world filled with uncertainties and challenges, many of us often seek guidance and reassurance from those around us. While it's natural to turn to friends, family, or mentors for support, there's a deeper well of wisdom and strength available to us—the scriptures.

Turning to scripture above people means putting our reliance on God and remembering who we are in Him. It's about prioritizing the eternal truths found in the Bible over the fleeting opinions of others. Here's why this practice is so powerful:

Unchanging Truth: "The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever." - Isaiah 40:8. The words of scripture are timeless and unchanging. In a world where opinions and circumstances fluctuate, the truth of God's word remains constant. When we anchor ourselves in scripture, we find stability and clarity amidst life's storms.

Divine Wisdom: "For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding." - Proverbs 2:6. The Bible is filled with wisdom and guidance for every aspect of life. Whether we're facing a major decision, struggling with a challenge, or seeking direction for the future, God's word offers insight and direction beyond what any human advisor can provide.

Personal Identity: "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light." - 1 Peter 2:9. Scripture reminds us of who we are in God's eyes. We are loved, valued, and chosen by Him. When we internalize these truths, we find strength and confidence in our identity as children of God, no matter what others may say or think.

Spiritual Growth: "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." - 2 Timothy 3:16-17. Turning to scripture fosters spiritual growth and maturity. As we spend time reading, studying, and meditating on God's word, we deepen our relationship with Him and grow in faith. This transformational process equips us to navigate life's challenges with grace and resilience.

Ultimate Trust: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight." - Proverbs 3:5-6. Ultimately, turning to scripture above people is an act of trust in God's sovereignty and faithfulness. It's a declaration that we believe His promises are true and that His plans for us are good, even when the world around us may seem uncertain or chaotic.

In conclusion, while seeking advice and support from others can be valuable, there is unparalleled strength and wisdom to be found in scripture. By turning to God's word above all else, we align ourselves with His truth, wisdom, and love. As we rely on Him and remember who we are in Him, we can confidently navigate life's journey, knowing that we are never alone.

Hello, beautiful minds!

Cognitive empathy, or the ability to understand and perceive others' thoughts and feelings, can be challenging for some of us in the autism community. It doesn't mean we don't care about others, it's just sometimes hard to "read" them. So here are a few strategies that might help:

1️⃣ Theory of Mind exercises: These can help improve our ability to understand that others may have thoughts, beliefs, and perspectives different from our own. Books, movies, and discussing different perspectives can be helpful tools.

2️⃣ Active Listening: Take time to really focus on what the other person is saying. Try to understand their perspective before responding. This may help you to respond more empathetically.

3️⃣ Empathy Mapping: This is a visual tool that helps us better understand the needs and experiences of others. It can be a useful strategy for improving cognitive empathy.

4️⃣ Emotional Vocabulary Building: Understanding and naming emotions can be challenging. Building a broader emotional vocabulary can help us better understand our own and others' emotional states.

5️⃣ Practice, practice, practice: Like any skill, cognitive empathy can be improved with practice. It might not come naturally, and that's okay. Every step forward is a victory.

Remember, we all have unique strengths and challenges. Don't be hard on yourself if this is an area of difficulty for you. We're all on this journey together, learning, and growing every day. Keep being you, keep trying, and know you're not alone! 💙

what the universe brought to your babyshower

The night has been collecting rarities and divine specimens ever since the initial dawn broke, and some may argue that this notion began even before that. However, when you first boomed into existence and your hymn rippled throughout the macrocosm, the universe began assembling with you in requisite. What it deemed to be you in essence, it tried to attain. It would negotiate, scavenge, and even fight with pure dignity to collect all the shards of you it could locate, as its main purpose was to create something that would encapsulate who you would become. The universe was so determined to accomplish this goal, that I watched as it dove headfirst into caverns of seemingly endless darkness, guided solely by the entrancing chorale and magnetic light that your aura radiates. Even in the dead of night, your essence shone so abundantly that the universe never had to request for a flashlight to aid its way. Soon, you became a prominent part of day to day discussion amongst the stars - everybody knew of you. Everybody began to grow a liking for you, and they hadn't even met you yet.

After some time, the universe came to me with an exhilaration about itself that I've only ever seen after it had 'finished' a new work of art. (Quotation marks given as it always says that its work is never actually finished until the subject of the piece perceives it.) It grasped my hand and quickly sauntered towards an area of the sky I'd never seen before, and there lie an inky night sky strewn with fairy-like stars and dashed with sophisticated charm. Thoroughly and intricately designed, yet gentle on the eyes - penetrating to the soul, but not in a disturbing way. It truly was one of the most beautiful works I'd ever seen.

While I was lost in admiration, the universe excitedly nudged me and asked what I thought. I was quick to express my adoration and astonishment in its raw talent, but it was apparent that the universe was practically overflowing with anxious desire to see how you, yourself, felt about its illustration of everything that you are.

Now, your opinion of its creation is yours to hold, yours to make - but the point I’m truly trying to convey is that even when you feel completely alone, the universe will always be there for you. It is one of the only entities that has been working for you prior to even seeing you in physicality. It single handedly placed all of its faith in your potential, and not once did a single doubt disturb its process. So, the next time you feel as though darkness is trying to make homestead within your heart, I hope you think to visit the night; to step outside and simply speak to the universe. The universe will always make time for you, as you are its most divine creation.
