⛳️ I’ve come to realize I enjoy hitting things when I’m feeling a little off…bags, mitts and now I suppose golf balls 😅⛳️

Sometimes you just have a day. Sometimes it’s for no particular reason or maybe for a culmination of reasons (exhaustion, hyper-stimulation, little bit of overwhelm maybe a sprinkle of overthinking) so when those moments come I’ve learned to use them for the opportunities they are and allow myself to feel the things but take action to harness the yuck. 

I zipped up a cute golf fit, threw my taylormadegolf clubs in the truck of Big Betty (my precious ford bronco) and let myself embrace the yuck while using that energy to clear my head and focus on my slowly evolving golf swing… it worked. 

Mental presence through those uncomfortable times, embracing the feelings rather than forcing yourself to change them, and taking action while honoring the experience— game changing. ⚡️safe to say I feel much more in my body and proud of how I took the yuck and did something to improve myself and give that good ol’ brain a break. 

Dealing with mental health is not a checkmark but a lifelong journey. The good news…the longer you deal with it the stronger you become at managing the experience. So here’s to all the members of our fun little 🧠 club and to those who support us. Embrace the yuck and know that “stuck” feeling always has a trap door through action. 🤍⚡️#neverknockedout #stayinthefight #learningtogolf #golfgirls
