00:01Five months ago, I wasn't able to walk because I tore my ACL.
00:05I needed total knee reconstruction surgery and went through five months of physical therapy.
00:11As a traveling nurse, this was really hard for me, and it was one of the most challenging times of
00:15my life.
00:16Reggae music helped me get through this. Reggae is such a healing form of art.
00:22The lyrics and the music talk you through every single mood and emotion you're feeling.
00:27It forces you to sit still and connect with what your soul may be experiencing.
00:32I'm finally walking now, but it took a while.
00:35During that time, I wasn't getting outside a lot, and not getting enough sun was really affecting my mood.
00:41So I started taking Garden of Life vitamins and eating a really healthy diet.
00:45While I was recovering from my surgery, I had to find the light in my situation and discover the things
00:51that brought me joy.
00:53Energy is important to me.
00:55Creating a space that feels good is transformative to my soul.
00:59That process allows me to experience newness and welcome new possibilities into my life.
01:06Manifesting that kind of positive energy helped me to heal my spirit while tending to my body.
01:11All of these things, music, stillness, and proper nutrition, allowed me to uncover the ambitions that were truly aligned with
01:19what my soul needed.
01:21Our current world is disrupted, dismantled, and there's protests in every way we know how.
01:27So it's important for me to be intentional on keeping my soul grounded while the world swirls around us.
01:33We'll see you next time.
01:35We'll see you next time.
01:38Bye.
