Minds Are Not For Losing

But that's of your choosing

Free your mind so they say. And then what? Many of my peak bliss moments involve losing my mind on the dancefloor. And then prancing puzzle pieces back together with a recalibrated perspective. Music and movement grease my wheels and lubricate my thoughts. And while twirling won’t solve for world peace or climate change, it can go miles (or yards) for your sanity.

The reality is that sometimes losing your mind isn’t of your choosing. Your brain chemistry, current affairs, the state of the world or past traumas might have you in a conscious or unconscious loop de loop. It’s in no way easy to recognize or even face those types of realities. So this article certainly isn’t a one size fits all attempt at a solution. And by all means- I have zero education or background in therapy or psychiatry. Dr. Feinberg has never been my calling nor will it ever be. I’m only drawing from personal experiences and what I’ve observed amongst my friends and acquaintances. Now is a better time than ever to address something that permeates every nook and cranny of your life- your mental health.
