*graphic photograph* My struggle with mental health derived from my car crash 5 years ago, and is triggered by my scars, memories, nightmares, driving, and sometimes nothing at all. #worldmentalhealthday to me means feeling safe enough to share my struggles, hear and help others who are looking for support (or just someone to listen), and to have a crucial reminder of just how important practicing positive mental health is. Take care of your brain in any way you can today, tomorrow, always. 💛 • • #worldmentalhealthday#worldmentalhealthday2018#mothersagainstdrunkdriving#recovery
*apologies for the gross toes and legs* I haven’t written on my blog , discussed in person, or posted anything about my current health situation in so long. Life has been so crazy with the return to Canada, a quick move to a new apartment in a new city, and the start of a new, high energy job. My life has been a challenge lately, and I have been noticing my bodies struggle more in the past month and a half than ever. On top of the new aches, pain and swelling from osteoarthritis, I have really begun to notice the growth stunt in my left foot, for reasons I am not sure of. It may be from the lack of blood, or from the bone slowly disintegrating. Whatever it is, it’s painful and now noticeable. The left calf and achelies tendon has become so small and so tight that it’s difficult to support this slowly shrinking foot... Today was luckily a better day at work, which lead to not as much swelling and less pain. I hope to keep pushing through this job, because i really believe it’s the best place I could be in right now, but the future surgeries and treatments seem to be creeping up closer and closer... I just wanted to share this new piece of news with all of you, and let you know how much your constant support and love is appreciated ❤️ • • #recovery#madd#mothersagainstdrunkdriving#stopdrinkinganddriving
This month has been a challenge. New aches and pains have made walking more difficult than ever, and on top of that I have just started a new physically demanding teaching job. Finding the right doctors and surgeons here in Vancouver has been a struggle, and it’s coming to the point where I am in desperate need of their support and opinions. While all of this weight sits on me, I am happy that this new life offers plenty of positivity and excitement. My job is extremely understanding of my chronic pain and I have no doubt the people I work with will fill my life with joy. I get to teach again, try new things each day, and explore all that this city has to offer. The pain will always follow, but the beauty and joy always come first 🌻🌻 • • #vancouver#chilliwack#bc#chilliwacksunflowerfest#recovery

My favourite moment of @shambhala_mf 2018. An incredible 7 am @djbarisone set, a full living room set up on the @grove_stage, and a beautiful fairy. 🧚‍♀️ ✨ • • #shambhalamusicfestival#shambhala#shambhala2018#djbarisone#sunrise
