Three techniques to slay your Anxiety

1 Comment

I suffered from anxiety for years, starting at the age of 18. The Panic attacks and anxiety started at the age of 22, and it definitely took over my life and I found myself avoiding any situation I thought could induce my anxiety. 

The thing with anxiety the more you ignore it, the more it will come hunt you. Sucks right?…  But wait, the more it hunts you, the more difficult it gets.

Sometimes just getting yourself together, like your appearance can change so much in your daily life. Don’t be a debby downer so much and find love within yourself. When we are stressed we get to the point where we just let ourselves go, and all that do is add more to the plate. You definitely want that plate to be empty with no worries. 

In otherwise, SLAY THAT ANXIETY!…

#1 GET IN TUNED WITH YOURSELF

Think about all the good things you notice about yourself. Write it on a sticky note, journal, notes, hell wherever! Find yourself and figure out your happiness. The point where i’m getting to is that in order to be happy you have to make yourself happy. When you make yourself happy then what? you are in tuned with yourself. Can’t nobody tell you nothing different. AT ALL!….

 

#2 REDIRECT YOUR THOUGHTS

\When you notice you are starting to have negative thoughts then redirect your thoughts to something positive. Before i have an upcoming test, or job interview, I would always be negative. “I doubt i’ll pass” “I can’t do this” “I don’t think they will hire me”. Guess what happened when i had those thoughts? I FAILED! I had to start training my mind to turn a negative back to positive , and i still work on this til this day now. 

 

#3 BE MORE WORRYLESS

We have to get out of that “worry” mode. Sometimes when you worry too much it actually triggers you to have anxiety attacks. We apply so much pressure on ourselves and we don’t have to. Live in the moment and be fearless. When you start to worry, find a good solution that can help prevent that. Remember it’s all in the head. Your mind will play tricks on you, especially for those who minds wander 24/7. So you have to play tricks back by winning over anything that’s stopping you from letting go of your worries. If you can’t make it to your close friend party on time? Hey! it’s not your fault. You still haven’t passed that test quite yet? Keep trying. Your close someone is treating you like crap and you don’t know why?! Who cares, let it go!. Stop worrying about situations or people who isn’t making your life no better good or bad.

 

I am not a mental health professional, but i discuss my past to help those who are suffering from anxiety like i did. I am here to give those who suffer from any kind of mental health issues tips, and advise them on getting better.

Prep talk on letting go shame

Leave a comment

PREP TALK ON LETTING GO SHAME

 

 

Hello SP Fam!

I’ve been going through a process lately of letting go of shame. I know i’m sure most can relate to this. It’s been very hard, but deeply healing no matter what steps i have to take.

For a while now, I kept parts of my past life hidden & always been pretty much secretive about most things. I was ashamed of the mistakes I had made and the way I used to live my life honestly. I had a lot of fear that people wouldn’t like me or judge me if I let them know the truth. And that is just facts on facts!

As I move forward in life I realize to have the kind of life that I want to have I need to throw out the shame I’ve been holding inside for so long. I’ve been working on eagerly “clearing” my fears as they come up. I’ve started to notice when I hide my real authentic self because of shame. I have made a commitment to stay true & 100% honest now. If I’m not ready to speak out loud about my problems I’ll remind myself to write about it in my journal.

This process has become really important to me but very long. I do believe when I show authenticity and my open spirited personality I give other people in my life permission to do the same and that feels really important to me for the most part.

What makes you open to be more authentic?

Sometimes we don’t always want to be our selves around people because we may not trust them or just feel uncomfortable. but no matter what, being authentic at all times has got me more further in life and gave me the courage to say what’s on my mind and not feel ashamed about it. Now i am able to do things that are hard and give myself that big push forward when it’s needed.

 

Is it hard to be authentic?

Yes it can be hard, especially to others who “aren’t authentic.” But that shouldn’t stop you from staying true. Maybe you can motivate someone to live in there truth and be just as honest.

 

Don’t give up on being a better version of you. To elevate in life, you have to make sure people know the real you at some point in life. Embrace your authenticity and be fearless. Some people will respect you won’t.

50 Things that make me happy, Lifestyle Blog

50 things that make me happy

6 Comments

 

 

There’s no big secret or surprise that my life have been tough. As you see i blog about mental health a lot, because i go through it myself. The past few years i have been fighting it. So it’s up and down, but i have gotten so much better with coping with it.

Being in a “dark hole” is not how i necessarily described it. More like “A bunch of rocks being thrown at me repeatedly.” Yes at times i felt at most times my life was ruined, and it was no more happiness left in me to keep going.

Then POW!…

Here goes the interesting part.

I had given up. I didn’t really have the motivation and strength to. I always felt i needed that support to keep pushing. All i thought about is how i wanted things to be back how they were, and how i can move forward in life. All i wanted is to feel, act, and know myself again. There’s nothing like knowing who you truly are.

Here i am today, feeling much better. Actually finding myself, and starting off doing the things i love doing. Writing in my journal, blogging, promoting my new lip gloss business, and so much more. Also working on my mental state, my growth as a woman, and keeping focused. Although everything might not go back to normal or how it originally was, but i do know for the best part things will get better over time. I am beyond grateful now, I can truly say that.

Now i decided to start making a list of different things now, so it can help me throughout my growth & transition during life. I enjoy writing a list of things that make me happy. For me, writing a list keeps me in a very good place in life. I have been negative, or been around a lot of negative people/energy, I never really focused on happiness too much. So when i decided to start making list, I would always come back and read it so i can go cheer myself back up again. I had to remember that i have more of a reason to be happy now.

Making a list of things that make you happy takes your worries away from enjoying the things you love and enjoy. It’s tough to write one a list of things that make you happy, and not smile periodically. This is mine, right here, and I highly encourage & recommend you to write one of your own. Especially if you find yourself in a dark hole or confusing place in life like i have.

 

50 Things That Make Me Happy

 

  1. Coffee. Duh!
  2. My daughter who is at the of 6 years old. (My pride & joy.)
  3. Netflix. When having a bad day, I can easily go home and turn on Netflix, and ill feel better after.
  4. Long spa baths.
  5. Scented candles. With the light dimmed.
  6. Writing.
  7. Online shopping of course.
  8. Pampering day.

  28. Taking a 2 hour nap, and feeling energized again.
  29. Yoga.
  30. Meeting new people.
  31. Some good ole ice cream.
  32. Christmas time. I love the lights & decorations. (Brings me joy.)
  33. Going out for drinks.
  34. Playing games. (Video games, board games, & pc games.)
  35. Reading my favorite blogs.

  40. Being able to motivate & inspire others.
  41. Fresh beautiful flowers.
  42. Shot of tequila & a snack.
  43. Eating a whole container of green olives.
  44. Watching YouTube for tips.
  45. Music.
  46. 30 minute walks to relieve some stress.
  47. Go to the movies by my lonesome.
  48. Singing at home loudly.
  49. Calling someone close to me.
  50. Taking photos & editing them.

 

One of the important lessons I learned is to be grateful and not take things for granted, because anything can happen at any given time.

Just keep reminding yourself about things that make you happy, things that put a smile on your face, things you feel grateful for, is a good & fresh way to start. I don’t regret my past feelings because i wouldn’t feel how i do today. Being appreciative and acknowledging change is the best way to be.

Life updates: Part 1, Lifestyle Blog

Life Update: Took a break from blogging. Now i’m back.

Leave a comment

eef41b06-4ea5-4d37-870e-2416554cb692

So guess what? I decided to start doing life updates, just to keep you posted with me. I did say before i wanted to start finding new ways to connect with my audience, now i came up with the best solution. So let this be a new start. Life update part 1.

What’s up “Sp fam” (sixteen pages fam)

As you know, Sixteen Pages Blog, is to inspire, motivate, and discuss many topics from self-love, care, growth, and building +more. But for my life updates, you all will be digging into my lifestyle, figuring me out, and following me through my journey/path on pursuing my goals,. Also i will be writing about my fight with depression, my life as a mom, my relationship lifestyle, and so much more. These life updates will be 100% authentic of course. I mean i’m not blocking anything out, straight raw! Anyways let’s get started.

So what’s tea?…..

I decided to take a break away from blogging to focus on a business i started in Late June. The business is called SixteenKisses. It’s a beauty company selling a variety of beauty products. At first i was making it a priority to blog daily or every other day while still working on my business. It just became to much stress on my mind/body. I would be up all night and be super tired, and on top of that i still have a regular job so lol i’m sure you get the point now. I am incredibly ecstatic that i am completing another goal in my life and moving on to the next chapter. It wasn’t easy making all this happen but i did it. I can’t wait until my business expand, but i am patient and i am staying consistent. Now i am back to the blog world like i never left. I have a lot of upcoming things i want to do on my blog. I put a pause on those goals i had for my blog site and now i am ready to achieve them.

I have new interesting plans that will make my blog site more fun, entertaining, and helpful. So, let me throw some scoops at you! I decided to start doing interviews but in a different way. I will ask a selection of questions, and whomever will answer them, send photos, and leave a link for people to find them and i will add it to my interview section. All interviews will be put on a blog post in (writing). I decided to start doing interviews because it’s a good way to support & share the stories of successful men/women around the globe. There are people like myself that is killing the game, and not being noticed like as we should.  The goal is to provide examples of men and women who are walking in their purpose and want to show the world there gift.

Besides me cooking up all these interesting plans i have coming up, I also been working on a lot of me time. Self-care has been playing a big part on my life now. I been exploring the nature more, finding new things i love to do. I have a new series on Netflix i can watch while i’m alone with my cup of coffee, and i also been treating myself to a nice size glass of wine before bed time. I just been so mellow, nonchalant, & relaxed. It feels good i can truly admit i love taking time out for myself even if i’m not doing to much of nothing.

Well anyways sp fam, that’s all for now. Stay out on the look out for the next life update :). Check out my other blogs if you haven’t yet.

See you all soon!!

how to make a million off blogging, Lifestyle Blog

Turn your blog to a million dollar making blog (Small quick valuable tips)

1 Comment

So of course you’re building your blog, hoping to one day turn it to a full time income and quit your 9-5, but you have no guarantees it will ever pay off because now it’s seeming like these bloggers & vloggers are just making it all up just to take your money.

So many questions will run through your head. What if this blog fails? What if I get no audience? What if I’m wasting my time and meant to do something different? What if I’m really fooling myself thinking I will be able to become rich of being a blogger?

Let’s be real though, building a profitable blog can be tough work. And it takes time before it actually start taking lead towards success. So you have to be patient and learn as you go. But in the process of being patient make sure take these tips into consideration.

1. Research

2. Brainstorm

3. Watch videos

4. Take notes

5. Practice creating your future (ahead) just to see if you see any kind of potential

Find what your creative at. Anyone can be creative. Figure it out, and give it a shot. That creativity might lead you to some real life “moolah”🤑!

Here are a few things I know that help bloggers become millionaires.

•Selling a informative E-book

•Selling digital products

•Starting a YouTube channel with really good content

•Finance blogs (who wouldn’t want to learn how to make money)

•Courses (Teach courses & teach others how to teach courses)

•Start an e-commerce business

•Affiliate marketing

•Subscription programs

•Online and in person coaching

All & all you have to give people value, trust, authenticity, and not just someone who just want’s there money. Make sure you always are genuine and have genuine expertise, because your client is some one you do not want to lose out on. So don’t utilize your own experiences.

I hope these small tips were somewhat helpful at least just giving you a few tips on how you can turn something so small to something so big which means your revenue.
