I usually don't work out a lot, because the seizure meds I'm on regulate my weight. USUALLY. Since I've moved back home ( Houma) that has changed. My clothes fit a little more-i don't like that. lol. So I decided I needed to start working out.
1. Boost happiness levels
Working out gives you endorphins and they make you happy!!! That is a fact!

How I Feel during A seizure
Ok, for starters I think I'm pretty open about my epilepsy. Today I want to share a story about how it feels when I have a seizure.
Before seizure:
For me, it's like going in a dark place or tunnel that's closing in on you. The sound, the space, light slowly or quickly leaves me. Everything gets foggy; I can't comprehend things such as my name and where I live.

4 Benefits In Becoming A Pescatarian
Ok, at first guys I was on the vegan kick after watching "What the Health." But, after taking a trip to Shreveport to visit my homegirl and I ate wings, chicken and who knows what. I was going strong for a week and a half. I love vegetables, I do. But I'm a realist. I would have to graudually become a vegan. I don't need meat, I enjoy eating meat. I have given up chicken and I don't even look porks way now. I only eat seafood, fish, and yes I still eat cheese. It's a process. I am in the in-between stages right now. I am a Pescatarian; which means I can eat fish, seafood, dairy (dairy if I choose too).

HOW TO GET WHAT YOU NEED: Face Value Or Nah?
Sometimes we don't get what we want. Instead, we get what we need. If things don't workout as you planned & they never do!😩 Just recently, nothing was working in my favor. I had to pause for a moment and ask God-what is this lesson you are trying to teach me? My bestie wasn't available to help me solve this problem. Therefore, I had to solve this by myself. Oh did I mention, I over analyze everything. I do pros & cons list, I journal.. I just do too much!
So I had two different situations going on, with two different people. I just wasn't communicating effectively. You know the way we communicate when we're upset. So passive aggressively. Ignoring.....Click here to finish story

Feed Your Mind With Wisdom
So I was given this book by The White Light Publishing Company. It was such a page turner!! When I say, I will not let go of this book. I will most likely read this book again. This book is about peace and letting go of everything that is holding you back. I want to give you everything, but I can't. lol. So I'll give you a brief of some things.
-Happiness and security are not the same thing. Are you looking for happiness or security? What is happiness to you? My grandparents knew exactly what happiness meant to them. They were financially stable and we had great traditions. As I write this, I'm at my grandmother's house (lol). I'm thankful for those traditions they instilled in us. Those traditions I will one day pass on to my family. =) It was never about finances. They really loved their family and wanted all of us close. Click here to finish story..

Heck Yea To Your Goals
Trust me, I know where I'm going.
Sometimes, your vision may not be clear to others. And people will always give there opinion on what you should do. Because it's safe or easy. Who wants to live safe? What I've learned after abandoning what I love more times than none is that I kept coming back to it. I kept getting signs. I felt as if I wasn't following my purpose everytime. I was having an inner fight with myself. Always pay attention to the signs.
