OUR STORIES MAY BE DIFFERENT, BUT WHAT WE HAVE IN COMMON IS THAT WE ARE ALL GOING THROUGH SOMETHING Getting stressed, disappointed, sad, overwhelmed, exhausted, angry, afraid, rejected, etc., is not uncommon—we all experience these at some point in our life. What is uncommon is our ability to deal with these issues. We are all going through something. The Breathe. You Are Going To Be Okay! book is a toolkit of everyday rays for mental health. This book provides tools, reflection exercises at the end of each chapter, mental health challenges, glimmers, affirmations, prompts, art therapy, all designed to help you identify, mitigate and learn how to deal with the daily stressors of life. As you journey through this book I hope that you feel seen, loved, heard and understood. I hope you realize that you are not an anomaly because of the things you have been through or are going through. That even though it sounds cliché, it’s really okay not to be okay. It may not be okay now but it will be okay. This is a safe space. I’m holding space for you. There is no shame. No pretense. No judgment. This book was penned just for you. That you may finally have language to be able to express what you are going through and how you feel, and then get the help that you need. Give yourself permission to heal, grow, and transform. You are not alone. You matter. You’ve got this. You are going to be okay!
