I’m having such a hard time grasping the fact that 2018 is already halfway over. this year so far feels like such a blur – lots of ups and downs alike, but I’ve been finding a lot of strength through it, too. I’m looking forward to what the last half of the year has to offer. today I wanted to round-up my favorite posts of the year so far!

mental health
I love sharing about mental health because I feel like it’s so important to be raw and vulnerable when it comes to reminding others they’re not alone and that there are various solutions to help you on a day-to-day basis, as well as ways to find professional help. the following are some of my favorite posts this year:
community + mental health | how I cope with a bad day | mental health medication + faith
fitness
2018 has been the year that I have had a consistent, positive relationship with the gym. it’s become about spending time with myself, thinking about my day/life + how I feel + what I want to do, to clearing my mind, and working negative energies away. here are my favorite posts on the blog regarding fitness:
tips for getting back in the gym + fave exercises | quotes that boost my fitness motivation
lifestyle
let’s not forget that our regular, daily habits + routines play a part in our wellness too! and just so we’re clear, I don’t claim to be a pro when it comes to finances at all – but it’s definitely something I’ve had to teach myself about this past year. here are my favorite lifestyle related posts so far this year:
a young professional’s guide to finances | beauty beneath the surface
faith + inspiration
