Rise and shine!

MsAmy January 05, 2021

Good morning! Today, I am feeling very nauseous. 😭

I got to sleep a lot the past day or so and I feel really good.

I'm so excited about this year and what is in stored for all of us! If we are willing to work hard and put the time in, anything is possible!

I guess it is true that you're the person who can control where you are in your life - in a sense. You just have to be willing to look for answers and solutions and ways to get to where you want to be. In our world, there are a lot of distractions. Social media is obviously a huge one so I've set limits and have been organizing quality content to be released on a schedule so I can keep focused.

This year is going to be such an amazing year! I'm so dedicated to be a new person every year, I'm constantly looking to grow and learn more and be better. I will always strive to be a better person. 💯

Once my medicine (Midol) kicks in and I don't feel as nauseous with this huge headache, I'll be heading downstairs to do some studying. From there, I plan on conquering the world. 🌎

I hope you all have an amazing day. 👏💗

Because I sure will. 😌💋

Out with the old, in with the new.

MsAmy January 02, 2021

Happy 2021! with the new year starting. I feel very good. I have a lot of goals that I am setting and I plan to achieve each and every one of them. I just have to make sure that I set my goals accordingly and I'm realistic. Other than that. I feel like this year my relationship with Anthony is really going in a good direction. However, my relationship with my girls are kind of rollercoaster like. I don't know how to explain it, but some challenges have been really contributing to a lot of my stresses in 2020 and this year I want to take more control of who can affect my happiness and just have my guard up high.

I will do another updates when I have a chance.

Amy's Anecdote: How Do I Live

MsAmy October 09, 2020

Anecdote No. 1 - How Do I Live

I don’t have too much to say when it comes to my upbringing so I will start with how my parents met each other in America after they immigrated from Asia. I am a middle child of 4 siblings. English is my 3rd language and Spanish (3 years) is my 4th. My mama wasn’t a strong English speaker and was rather timid. When she had her doctor’s appointment when we were still young, all of her doctors spoke Lao/Thai and she was able to follow up on our health checks with that resource available. Her limited knowledge in speaking English clearly may have been why eating fast food was practically non-existent in my childhood. I wasn’t fully exposed to American food until I started kindergarten.

10 Self Care Ideas for your Intellectual Health

MsAmy September 22, 2020

SELF-care. The word says it all.

I anticipate that you're having a boundless day so far. These are my personally generated list of 10 things you can do to contribute to your self-care and intellectual health.

I am a mother of 4 Mademoiselles and they really do keep me at my toes. Our kids' needs can be infinite at times so when and if needed, you just have to take a second to care for yourself.

When you fly on an airplane, the flight attendant instructs you to put your oxygen mask on first before assisting others. This rule is very important for ensuring survival because if you run out of oxygen, you can’t help anyone with their oxygen mask especially your young and reliant progenies. More simply put, if you die, you can’t help anyone else.

This metaphor is directed towards those who spend a great deal of their time taking care of others ranging from parents, caregivers, teachers, doctors, and so forth.

Lack of self-care can easily deplete you as a caregiver, resulting in you conceivably experiencing possible stress, burnout, fatigue, reduced mental effectiveness, anxiety, health problems, frustration, agitation, and in some instances fatality. Please don’t wait until you’re experiencing these symptoms before you take care of yourself. Instead, replenish your energy habitually and frequently by doing little or big things for yourself.

Hopefully, you can incorporate some of these self-care tips it into your day-to-day routine and lifestyle. Enjoy!
