Chronic illness is not enjoying time off work. It’s being heartbroken that you can’t work. 📖 (A little shoutout to everyone who has no choice but to work, and it takes everything from you. Or those who can only work part-time and wish they could do more, or doing a slower job, unable to pursue their dream job. ❤️)
I hope you’re proud of all the times you rested I hope you’re proud of all the times you rested even though you didn’t want to. I hope you’re proud of all the times you said no. I hope you’re proud of all the times you did what was right for you. I hope you’re proud of all the times you stopped instead of pushing through. I hope you’re proud of all the times you put yourself first. I hope you’re proud of all the times you recognised your limits. I hope you’re proud of all the times you honoured your limits. I hope you’re proud of all the times you went at your own pace. I hope you’re proud of all the times you realised your best is, and always will be, enough. ~ Page 220 of my new book, ‘Everything is Always Changing.’ Available now via my shop and Amazon worldwide 📚🌍💛 xx
You don’t need to explain the way you choose to You don’t need to explain the way you choose to heal to anyone. 😌 ~ A quote taken from page 159 of my new book, ‘Everything is Always Changing.’ Available now via my shop and Amazon worldwide 📚🌍💛 xx
Life will test you. It will test you over and over Life will test you. It will test you over and over again until your bones ache and your chest collapses in on itself, crushing your heart beneath. You will have so many moments where you think: I can’t go on, I can’t do this anymore. It’s almost cruel how much life will repeatedly ask more from you: more courage, more rebuilding, more overcoming. But know this: each time, you will rise. It may take a day, week, or month, but you will find your strength again from an unearthed place within. You will carve out a way back to the light and move forward with a boldness and fire that you didn’t know you had. So remember, my darling, this life may shatter you into a thousand pieces; leaving scars on your palms and splinters in your heart. And yet, each time, it will only ignite the endless wildfire within you. You will stand, again and again – as many times as you have to – burning so brightly others will see your light all the way from across the horizon. So keep going. Keep finding the courage to rebuild yourself over as many times as you need to. Keep rising when this life breaks you down. And know, deep within you, there is an unrelenting wildfire that will never burn out. ~ Page 37 of my new book, ‘Everything is Always Changing.’ Available now via my shop and Amazon worldwide 📚🌍💛 xx
Another year come and gone. No further from being Another year come and gone. No further from being free from this than I was three years ago. Dreams of blue skies, open roads, and life outside this house slip further away still. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I don’t know what I’m doing right. In the darkest hours, the questions of ‘Is this all in your head?’ slip up from old surfaces that people, doctors, and history have left behind, making me feel that maybe these three years are self-inflicted and this confinement is somehow my choice. These thoughts are ever so fleeting but oh so devastating. This is what being ill with an illness so misunderstood can do to you: it can take the physical facts of your reality and twist them again and again until even you start to question if it’s all in your head. But it’s not. I know it’s not. It could not be more real or evident; I feel the weight of the fatigue in my bones, in every breath I take, pulling me downwards like it has a gravitational hold on me. And so I submerge the thought that I have subconsciously inflicted this pain upon myself, drowning out the idea that this is my fault, and pull out the evidence that: this is not my fault, I didn’t cause it, there is nothing I am doing that is causing me to stay in this place. ~ Page 30 of my new book, ‘Everything is Always Changing.’ Available now via my shop and Amazon worldwide 📚🌍💛 xx

Writing down my innermost thoughts throughout each stage – holding nothing back – this book will take you on the journey with me, showcasing the challenges and joy along the way.

And I hope that by being open and vulnerable, you can find some strength, solace, and light amongst these pages.” Written from the heart, this book of poetry and prose is split into three parts: Underground, Emerging, and Blooming. Presented chronologically, this book is an intimate witness to the ups and downs of recovery. • You can order it now worldwide: - You can order it directly from me via my shop - mindfullyevie.com - I ship worldwide and offer free delivery when you buy 2 or more books.
