Music My Remedy°°°Afri-InLeo Initiative
Hello everyone, it's a beautiful day over here and I'm happy to write to you all about an integral part of my life. We sometimes face rejection at some point in our lives and left to solve all the puzzles in our head by our own selves, sometimes life gives us lemons at points we do not even expect so for me, being sick or ill isn't all about the disorder of the body but also the state of our mind.
Our mental health should be prioritize just like the physical, some complications we have today is as a result of our emotions and feelings. When the mind gets weak, the whole body is sick getting emotionally drained is a very big diseases that needs urgent attention or it escalates, when it escalates and start becoming visible in our actions and behaviours then it has become an emergency.
People who are emotionally traumatized hardly speak up or show it up to people, they want people to believe they're alright while deep down they've got something killing them drastically. Sometimes you need to go extra miles to know what's wrong with them or else they never want to speak.
I have felt that way at some points in life but God has helped me build capacity to chest all my worries of life. Most times when I am emotionally disturbed I try to distract myself with other activities like playing music or outdoor games like juggling, or playing ball. Hiking is one of the best ways I get off pressure too, whatever to distract my mind from thinking too much is what I do.

I'm thankful I hardly fall sick and all of the times I become emotionally destabilize, music usually served as a good remedy to my soul since it connects me to realms unfold. The power of music cannot be overemphasized, it has sure contributed allot to my mental health where drugs could not even help, I remember some nights when I will just need to put on my earpiece and turn the music on, sometimes I wake up the next day to turn the music off. I understand the implications of putting on earpiece for long though but how can I do it when the urge in my mind craves it more.
I have find a way to regulate it though, I just play the song and let it play from my phone speaker while I enjoy the moments. This has helped me get out of bad moods and negative thoughts that could've resulted into something else. I'll always be thankful to God who created music for people like me. Thank you all for reading through my blog..
