Overcoming

Overcoming the trauma from SA and a domestic violence relationship was traumatic for me. To know that I came from a dark place and overcame. I’m overjoyed, I want to help others to let them know they’re not alone.

This image describes Japanese techniques 2, 3, and 4 for overcoming laziness. It explains Kaizen (small daily improvements), Shoshin (beginner's mindset), and Hara Hachi Bu (stopping eating when 80% full to avoid post-meal tiredness).
This image continues the explanation of Hara Hachi Bu and introduces techniques 5 and 6. Shinrin-yoku (forest bathing) encourages spending time in nature for stress relief, while Wabi-sabi promotes finding beauty in imperfection rather than striving for constant perfection.
