Mental health? Let's Talk, Laugh, and Lighten the Load

It seems ages ago now but it really wasn't that long ago that I was in a very different place than I am now. In 2012 I was in a very negative place. It seemed nothing in my life was going my way. I had made choices that went against what I believed and this added too negative state of mind. Try as I might I just could not seem to get out of it. Everything I thought and everything I said was negative. It just seemed to flow out of me. I felt out of control and didn't know what to do about it.

Hi, My name is Tammy Hawksworth, I am a wife to Troy, my hero husband, a mother to six amazing children- two boys and four girls, one is special needs with something called Cri Du Chat syndrome, and a grandmother to six energetic grandbabies( although none are babies anymore) - three boys and three girls,and  I am a wellness promoter and mentor.

I found my way out of the dark abyss I was in and I never want to see anyone else get to that place or worse and I now share what I have used to help me,to help others

A little history, I had two failed marriages, I was a wanna be stay at home mom that now felt I had to work outside the home to make ends meet, having a special needs child, I believed I needed to be home for, and  my now hubby, had off the charts chronic pain and a brain injury that resulted in short term memory loss from an accident from almost 20 years ago. I felt I had to constantly be a broken record, repeating everything I said either to my daughter or my hubby. Add my negative mindset and it was not a fun place.

Then one day in my kitchen, an interesting thing happened, I dropped something and made a mess on the floor. One of my children came in and said "you're a bad mom!" On any other day, this wouldn't have phased me but this was from a child who normally never said anything like that and it made me do a double take and really think about it. "was I a bad mom?" I only ever wanted to be the best mom I could be. I grew up just wanting to be a" mom", so after a brief moment, I responded with " I'm not a bad mom because I spilled something." "I'm a great mom, I care about your well being, I teach you right from wrong, and I love you, that makes me a great mom"

Little did I know that those words would be a key to changing something in me that set me on the path to getting out of my negativity and my deep dark abyss.

I was using affirmations! I didn't know it, but I was.I have since learned that our words we think and our words we speak have more power than most people ever  realize.

Then as life does, when we shift gears,  I  was then introduced to some online training that helped me learn more tools to help me get back on track. And shortly after that I was beginning to be introduced to essential oils. Again, little did I know how huge a benefit these would be in helping the tools I was learning, take effect in record time.

I now spend my time sharing these tools and these oils with anyone wanting to improve their mental, emotional, spiritual and physical wellness, because when you shift gears and change your path and change your direction, you change your life!

I have an interesting household, where there is rarely a dull moment, but when you go from being a couch potato, and not able to get energy to do pretty much anything- to being motivated to accomplish anything I set my mind to, I just can't keep that to myself. The changes for good in my life and the goals I am achieving are due to these things.
Want to know more, then stay tuned, I have so much to share!
