Top Selling Items You Loved | November 2023
Hi friends! Looking back on what we loved the most in November...
![THE FALL 🍂 I have always prided myself in being a ‘positive’ person. Over the years, at different points in time, my friends and other people in my life have told me just how admirable and inspiring my strength during hard times was to them.
.
So, after moving to the UK in 2020, and my life started to change in every way possible [in addition to the entire world changing simultaneously], it was really confusing to me just how much I struggled mentally. I couldn’t pull myself out of my emotional depths every time something unexpected happened, something didn’t go the way I had hoped, or something popped up that felt overwhelming. I was falling heavily into victim consciousness, limiting beliefs, and self-sabotage as well as ruminating over every. little. thing. I didn’t feel like I met any of it with the same mental fortitude I once could. It was so disorienting. I felt like everything - my life and who I was - was crumbling from underneath me and in front of me.
.
My thoughts were full of sadness and negativity but, worse than that, I was letting them completely run the show and dampen day after day. Soon, hopelessness set in along with an extreme lack of motivation. I couldn’t see my way out of it but I was desperate to find a way.
.
First, I sought out professional help and got on a medication to help elevate my mood so I can actually make something of the day. But, I wanted to do more and figure out what might be underneath, what the ultimate cause might have been, how to find it, and what could actually help that didn’t involve taking medicine ... not that there is any judgement around medication. I was just genuinely curious. How can I get back to myself? Or at least figure out how to step into this new version of me? So, I let my curiosity take the lead and started learning about just how powerful our minds are and how the way we CHOOSE to respond to our thoughts can completely change our life. I’m excited to share that there’s something brewing behind the scenes that will shed light on all of the things I’ve been exploring. A new era for Alyson Haley is coming ... stay tuned ✨ #mentalhealth](https://alysonhaley.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
