2020 has been nothing short of a dumpster fire. To say it has had an impact on my mental health would be a drastic understatement.

I know I am not alone in that. I know it has been hard, not only that but it has been hard for days, weeks, maybe months. Maybe it seems like you literally can't catch your breathe, not a single break from the overwhelming parts of life. Seasons of all emotions, which normally come and go but it seems during 2020, all these seasons have meshed together. All of sudden "taking it day by day" seems too overwhelming. 2020 has seemed to cram in months of shit into 24 hours, it's like it has broken the concept of time.

I blamed these things, the government, my job, people in my social circle, and even myself for the misery I found myself running from through the many avenues we often find ourselves escaping in today's society. After several confrontations with my higher self (and even a physical jolt in the form of a self imposed black eye) I began to have a realization: I was the cause of all of my problems. I took a long, hard look into the mirror through meditation and yoga and began to take stock of what I saw.

Self-care isn’t always easily defined; for many people, it’s simply a way to describe taking care of the body and mind in a healthy way. Eating right, getting enough exercise each day, and reducing stress, anxiety, and the symptoms of depression all count as self-care, and these activities are essential for individuals who are living with cancer. Not only will they help you feel better, but they can also improve your quality of life and allow you to move forward during a particularly difficult time. But how do you get started?

What if you never took another one of your physical senses for granted? What if everything you chose to experience through them was something you chose to do on purpose and not by default?
