The Science of Mindfulness — Wise & Shine
Good afternoon everyone,
How’s everybody doing?
Let’s talk about feelings in today’s blog, and how it is completely normal to feel how you are feeling at this moment in time.

How To Find Your Source of Happiness
One of my new found rediscovered hobbies is reading. I’ve always been a bookworm to some extent, but as I got older social media became the new thing & I felt like I didn’t have time for it anymore. I wanted to start this detox series with the topic of reading because I’ve discovered, you […]

I’ve always been a very curious person, and life itself has just always fascinated me.

We’re going to be taking a look at this in a little more detail in today’s blog!

Failure, it’s a topic that I’ve covered a few times before on the page, but I haven’t looked at it too much lately. I’ve been reflecting quite a bit on what failure means to me lately, and I thought that I would do a little blog on the subject as I go along 🙂
