Mental health during Camp NaNoWriMo

I saw this thread on the Camp NaNoWriMo forum and thought I'd share my response here. Campers were weighing in with their tips and tricks for maintaining good mental health during April's camp. 

What disorder(s) I have:

Generalized anxiety disorder and depression. 

My tips/tricks:

* Disney music! This always gets me in a good mood. Plus, often easy to listen to while writing. 

* Green tea. Another mood booster. 

* Essential oils. Mostly citrus for mood. Sometimes minty varieties for energy. 

* Pokemon Go. No one plays anymore right? Well, Team Instinct here and I do. :) It gets me out and walking. 

Website down for a bit

Just a quick note: my personal Website (JessicaBurkhart.com) is offline for some changes, but it'll be back up soon!

New year, new look

Helloooo, Harts! :)

Thought it was time for a blog overhaul. I'm still tweaking a few things, but this is a start! How's your January going so far?

I'm SUPER excited that it's the *NINE* year anniversary of TAKE THE REINS' publication date on January 27. I CANNOT BELIEVE IT WAS PUBBED IN 2009! 😱

What a journey so far. Wow. I'm just so, so grateful for all of my readers who have stuck by me this whole time. 💓💓💓

More to come, but! There's a giveaway over on my Insta. Go follow me and check it out (JessAshley87)
