What brings you peace?

Knowing I have a choice in troubling times helps bring me some peace and push me out of the paralysis caused by anxiety.


I feel most at peace alone with my noise canceling headphones. Especially in beautiful outdoor places. I like not having distractions from other people. I enjoy having space to just feel what I feel and get lost in thought.


Writing brings me peace. It helps me cope with and process my thoughts and emotions in a healthy, productive way. It helps me purge my worst side into art that others will enjoy. It helps me transform that ugliness into a story with layers and deeper meanings that reflect my journey as writing helps me heal the wound that’s got me bleeding ink.
