Embarking on a journey of creativity, I’ve joined @ryrob in the #f29 Creative Challenge! Day 1 is a wrap, and I’ve poured my heart into a piece that’s close to my soul. It’s a story of fragments, a non-linear narrative that mirrors the mosaic of life as seen through my eyes. For me, this isn’t just a challenge; it’s a pilgrimage back to the heart of my own narrative, to the six-year-old whose world was once fractured by a storm of emotions too powerful for words. I have always been a writer, using words to unravel my experiences with childhood emotional neglect (CEN), narcissistic abuse, and trauma. It hasn’t been until recent times that I began to wonder if being diagnosed with major depressive disorder might be an indication of life lived on the spectrum, rich with colours that not everyone can see. Stay tuned as I share my art, one day at a time, in this collective voyage of expression and discovery. #CreativityUnleashed #Day1 #beyourownkindofbrave #writersofinstagram

Hello Beautiful Souls, today as we breathe into the gentleness, I’d like to share a heartfelt realisation. Last week, we delved into the theme of 🌿 Simplicity 🌿 through the One Page a Day approach. Today, I'd like to share a realization that emerged from my attempts to curate my life in this way: what I thought was a move towards simplicity was actually my tendency to self-regulate through future fantasy. As someone with ADHD and chronic health issues, I've found that my mind often escapes to future scenarios, imagining sweeping changes or "hard resets." And while this can offer temporary relief, it also pulls me away from the present moment, from the here and now where life is truly lived. As a former personal fitness trainer, I was trained to focus on 'mindset' and the transformative power of exercise. When I became severely ill with depression, I thought I could just 'exercise my way' to wellness. But my body had other plans; it needed rest, not exertion. This disconnect pushed my mind further into future fantasies as a way to cope. I'd imagine a version of myself who was already healed, bypassing the very real and necessary process of recovery. While this offered temporary relief, it also disconnected me from the present moment, where true healing and living occur. So today, I'm leaning into Simplicity as she whispers - “Cherish the small steps, the quiet moments, the gentle breaths. For it's here, in the present, that life unfolds and healing begins.” 📝 Journal Prompt of the Day 📝 What is one small, achievable action you can take today to anchor yourself in the present moment? For me, it's been as simple yet profound as washing my face. This act serves as a physical anchor, a reminder that I am here, and I am enough, just as I am. I invite you to join me in this exploration of Presence Over Fantasy. Let's take a collective deep breath together, grounding ourselves in the space of the heart. Feel free to share your thoughts and experiences in the comments. Your voice adds to the richness of our collective journey. Sending glimmers, Kimberlee

Hello Beautiful Souls, today as we reflect on our inner horizons, I'd love to share with you, what I like to call my One Page a Day approach. If I only had one page today to record my actions what would make it to the page, and what wouldn't. Today, as I thought about how incredibly taxing it's been, trying to show up for myself while battling depression and chronic sinus issues. The universe seemed to be nudging me towards a theme 🌿 Simplicity . In a world that often demands more, more, more, let's focus on what we already have. Simplicity helps us come home to ourselves, and that's what we'll explore today. 📝 Journal Prompt of the Day 📝' What is one area of your life where you can embrace simplicity today? Let's take a collective deep breath together and let the mind settle into the space of the heart. This prompt is a huge invitation to delve into simplicity, and for me, it begins with the mind. As someone with ADHD, my mind has a tendency to complicate everything, to jump from one idea to the next without pausing for a moment of calm. So, today, simplicity means creating a mental space where I can gently guide my thoughts back to what truly matters, here and now. This might involve returning to the sound of my breath, or grounding myself by acknowledging the richness of my five senses. Savouring the taste of a warm cup of coffee, or noticing the feel of a gentle breeze on my skin. Today, I'm taking the small but meaningful step of practicing this kind of mindfulness, even if it's just for a few minutes. It's my way of inviting a sense of ease and clarity into my day. My hope is to stop filling my mind and space with distraction, to cease the impulse to emulate and create based on what I think I should be doing. Instead, I want to give myself the freedom to simply create, to let the heart guide my journey. How about you, my brave friend? What does simplicity mean to you today? I invite you to share your thoughts in the comments, so we can make this a space for our collective reflections Beaming you a virtual hug, Kimberlee

When you have depression, it can be jarring - and distressingly triggering when there is a family crisis. —trigger warning, stroke, multiple sclerosis and depression. The phone rang and instantly I knew something was wrong. “It’s your Mother, she’s had a stroke”, he managed to tell me. My Mum has multiple sclerosis (MS) and I braced myself ...he continued, "she's stable, the paramedics were there within ten minutes". After I hung up from that call I booked the next available flight to Australia, from the UK. The weeks that followed were a tumultuous time. I can’t go into it but it was disturbing how things were handled from the medical perspective. I felt powerless against the medical system. Her treatment was at best adequate at worst, appalling. Mum was a stroke patient but they completely by-passed the fact she was also battling a chronic disability. Even though it had been six weeks, as soon as I got on the plane home, I immediately regretted leaving. At the same time I was excited to be on my way home to see my husband and fur-baby kitten. It was the right thing, because although I was heartbroken I was also exhausted and at breaking point with my mental health. And I’m reaching out today for a couple of reasons. Firstly, I want you to know I’m sad about not showing up here for ages. But more importantly I want you to know: Whatever you are going through right now, no matter how intense it feels, there is a hidden strength within you. When you breath is caught between the inhale and the exhale - and all you can do to still yourself is to rock and count your breath. Rock my darling and let life hold you close. Hugs sweet friend if you’re reading this today and if you can relate, please know you you matter in this world very much. Hugging you in my thoughts, Kimberlee x Posted with @plannthat #plannthat #depression #stroke #multiplesclerosis #beyourownkindofbrave

꧁ 𝙈𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙡 𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙩𝙝 𝘼𝙬𝙖𝙧𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨 ꧂ Hey brave friends, Today, October25, is POTS Awareness Day. Until now, I’d not heard of POTS, a nervous system disorder which affects every body function. The symptoms are invisible and difficult to diagnose. I’d like to thank @lbhealthandlifestyle for bringing this to light so powerfully. ≋ read more ≋ Lucy, a fellow chronic illness blogger shares how it takes on average 7 years to be diagnosed, with 73% of patients seeing a doctor who hasn’t heard of POTS and 20% seeing 10+ doctors before being diagnosed. Even after diagnosis many people like me are just discharged, told there’s no cure and given no treatment. I was left to do my own research into diets, lifestyle changes and holistic strategies to help regain my health. Hopefully by raising awareness people suffering will be diagnosed quicker, receive more effective treatment and better support from loved ones. ≋ If you are battling invisible illness, please know you are not alone. Thank you for being here. I hope you are all doing okay.
