My go to is beach volleyball over all else! 🏝🏐🥰
Not only is it a great HIIT workout getting my heart pumping fast with fresh oxygen flowing through my body, the sound of the ocean calms my mind 🌊, being barefoot in the sand is grounding 👣, my volleyball community provides the connection for the extroverted soul I am, and over all else it’s the BEST emotional release for me! 🗣💥

Those that know me outside of volleyball get surprised when they see me on the court cuz I get LOUD! 😆
I scream & curse with a smile as I chase a ball down, then laugh at myself after… 🤣
I yell loud when I F up or when we win a really good rally, to the point that people hear me on the other side of the courts & even one of the volleyball coaches makes comments to me! 😆
I release whatever emotions are inside of me at the beach & always feel much better after! 😍
So what you see may be all smiles in those selfies & so you think to yourself: she’s living her DREAM life! 💭
As much as that’s true & I’m beyond grateful for this life I have created that provides me so much more than just a workout, it’s also what keeps me going with all that I’m dealing with mentally & emotionally. 🥺🤬😶🌫️
With Pashmak and his accidents happening more often, on top of all the Ayurveda detoxing & cooking, plus Airbnb management, housework, and now the decision of moving forward with Western fertility options playing the waiting & patience game, oh and a significant MRI this month that marks 5 years… 🥳
And I’m sure I’m missing stuff, but you get the point… 🙃
Volleyball has been my constant, what gets me through the days, and I barely make time for other self care let alone be proactive with my business or coordinate much else…
I have to prioritize & unfortunately people see my volleyball pictures & get the wrong idea…
Have expectations of me, some of which are unspoken or even uncalled for… 😶
And right now my priority is feeling JOY, releasing emotions, and being mentally healthy!
Volleyball is MIND BODY SPIRIT Health for me! 🧠💖💫
If I’m not coordinating time with you, it’s because I’m not coordinating anything, not even volleyball most of the time because I have set weekly games.
Sometimes we see pictures & make assumptions especially since most people don’t share the REAL & RAW, but I do! 🤷🏻♀️
And I haven’t had time to even post about those emotional days or post in general! 😳
I am grateful for those that have their own version of beach volleyball that stabilizes their mental health because they can relate! ❤️🔥
What are YOUR mental health & self care practices? 💆🏻♀️

Dancing is another one of mine, although it doesn’t happen as frequently as volleyball does. 💃🏻
As always, if you feel stuck and need support with maintaining your mental health, then consider getting UNCOMFORTABLE and contacting me or someone else that resonates with you for accountability and Next Level guidance because we ALL can benefit from that as I have from my own mentors! 👥
