Hello Beautifuls’!
I appreciate your patience during my absence. It hurts me not to be as active as I have intended to be; unfortunately, using screens has been an eyesore in more ways than one. I have faced challenges with daily migraines and headaches for the past year and a half, but they have recently intensified to a rather debilitating degree, truly impacting my quality of life and daily routines. With my 9-5 job being mostly behind the screen, the constant blue light has been excruciating most days of the week, making even the simplest tasks feel overwhelming.
However, things aren’t all bad, and I have an exciting update to share with you all regarding the blog and small business! You may have seen a sneak peek on Instagram; the past few months have been quite busy, and we’re making significant progress. Not only have I been brainstorming new content ideas that align with my vision, but I’ve also been working to create some awesome products for the Self Help Happy Shop! It’s a thrilling endeavor that I hope will truly resonate with you and enhance your experience on the blog.
After my therapist suggested it, I took the crucial steps to see a neurologist a few weeks ago, realizing how important it was to address my situation head-on. We’re currently in the process of running multiple tests to investigate what may be causing my consistent migraines and headaches, alongside a few other symptoms that have been troubling me lately.
Each day feels like a new hurdle. It’s been incredibly nerve-wracking to navigate this uncertainty, but I’m doing my best to remain strong. Focusing on what’s ahead and maintain a positive mindset throughout this challenging journey.
I remind myself that this process is an essential step towards understanding my health better and ultimately finding a way to alleviate my discomfort. Several appointments are scheduled in the next two weeks, and despite the anxiety that comes with waiting for results, I feel optimistic that we’re gradually getting closer to uncovering the answers I need.
Positive energy is blossoming in the excitement about the news we have to share with you. As you might see in the pictures, there is an exciting update on the Self Help Happy Shop! We’ve been taking steps to get closer to the shop side of the blog, and are so excited to share a sneak peek with y’all! We’ve been stocking up on supplies for all kinds of products for better mental health and wellness, self-care products, and homemade goodies for all to love. Here’s a sneak peek of a few new goodies made over the past few weeks. I’ve been hard at work creating products and free goody bags to get everything ready for opening!
Every order comes with the items pictured above, and there are more goodies for larger orders! Once I have the correct licenses and coding figured out, I will be good to go, and I have a much more exciting update coming soon! I’m actively seeking solutions to manage these health challenges and remain committed to our journey ahead! If you don’t hear from me for a minute again, know I love y’all to pieces, and I’m hard at work for you.
