It's been a while, huh. Sorry for being a little MIA but we are back and better than ever. I hope some grads out there relate to tis week's episode because the feelings I have experienced as a high school grad are definitely not what I expected. Not everyone is going to feel the same way about things that happen in life, and that is ok. As I was graduating, I noticed I felt a little indifferent about the whole thing and wondered if anyone else felt the same way. So, this episode goes out to all the grads! Congratulations, and remember, not everyone is going to react the same way but as long as you stay true to yourself, you are golden!

Welcome back everyone! This week's episode is all about trying something new and being a little bit more spontaneous! Over the past few months, I have been trying to take life a little less seriously, and man have I never felt so free. There have definitely been some moments when I need to check myself and get my work back on track, but overall, maintaining a healthy balance between school and my social life have helped me make senior year WAYYY less stressful.

New week, New episode! This week we are talking about how mindfulness is so important in our everyday lives and how little things such as multitasking are actually very harmful to our brain development and mental health. Even though it seems like such a good thing, multitasking is not something that we should continue to normalize due to the harm it can cause. We hope you enjoy this week's episode and try to implement more effective actions into your life to cut out all of the excess noise that constantly consumes us!

Another week, another episode! This week is a little bit of a jumble of things and I just felt like getting some thoughts off of my chest. To be honest, I don't know how much sense it is, but when I finished recording it made me feel so happy. I hope you can relate to the message of simply trying to have more fun in your life and putting yourself out there in any way you can. Remember to do what makes you happy and that the worst thing you could do is not try at all. Make sure to follow us on Instagram @thebewellpodcast for more!

What do you want? Think about that question as you go into listening to this week's episode because it is so easy to do things because other people want us to and not because we truly want to. Doing something for yourself is not selfish, and it is important that if we want to go on a journey of self- improvement and self- love that we focus on what truly makes us happy without worrying about what other people think.

This week, we put up a Question on our Instagram story to ask what you guys wanted us to talk about! We loved hearing your responses, and this week decided to discuss Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), also known as Seasonal Depression.
