The only benefit from my toxic relationship: veganism, healing, and a spiritual awakening
I never wanted to be a vegan, and I used to try hard to stay away from spiritual or religious people. “We have different morals” “We don’t want the same things in life” “I don’t believe in a big man in the sky telling me what I can and can’t do”

How to deal with unpleasant emotions.
Most of us find it really difficult to deal with the unpleasant emotions. Whenever we are in the grip of any unpleasant emotion, be it anger, greed jealousy or hatred, we lose all the reason, clarity and intelligence. We always come out of these emotions battered and bruised. Either we hurt ourselves or we hurt others. This is everyone’s story. For some of us living with anger, jealousy or hatred has become a part of life. We have become habituated to them. The irony is that we don’t even try to understand why we end up falling into the same pit again and again. We appear to be so intelligent on the outside but all that is a sham. We have an opinion about politics, religion, sports, environment or economy, however, we are totally oblivious to what goes on in our little heads all the time. This lack of awareness about what goes on in our head is the fundamental cause of our emotional problems. We are unaware of our emotional response system. Let’s try to understand the nature of emotions and how we respond to them.

Taking Care of Your Mental Health
I am sure that this something that is on everybody's mind right now. How do I take care of myself when the world is basically falling apart around me? When so many people in the American population just blatantly disregard science in the face of death. Empath's are struggling during this pandemic, everyone is struggling. This is something a vast majority of us have never faced before. Isolation. The separation of us from our loved ones, from our friends.

Routines and Mental Health
The word itself can fill you with a sense of gratification, or a sense of frustration, especially in the days of Covid. For those of us with mental health issues, having a routine, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant, can be the difference between a good day, and a really bad one. I myself struggle to keep a routine, even when knowing just how important it is to my mental health. When I am on track, I feel great. I feel accomplished. The depression and anxiety take a back seat to the productivity and gratification that comes along with seeing a clean home, and a clean body in the mirror.

A Moment of Peace
In this period of stress and anxiety we have all undergone some pretty intense situations. Between violence in the streets, COVID-19, and the upcoming election date that determines who runs the country for the next 4 years, we have literally driven out a majority of the sanity left in our nation. (oh, and there was something about murder hornets, but I personally haven’t seen one, crossing my fingers)

Marcus in the Morning
I used to wake each morning in an amphora pot of uncertainty. Where was rent coming from this week? This pot won't pay for itself. Where was food being sourced? My stomach can not consume itself. With the panic of a thousand splendid moons revolving round an orbit point I seemed to inhabit, I would embarrassingly cry my way to the bathroom and shower.
