ABOUT Jonny

Stand Today In The Impossible of Yesterday.


I've learned a thing or two about the way the mind works.

Hint: it does not always work in your favor. At least my mind didn't. Having overcome depression, suicidal ideation, and very low self-esteem, For a long time, my mind felt like my biggest tormentor. Cutting me down at every slight, every mistake, every error. It was quite painful to live in my mind. And I felt very lost.

Thankfully, there was a wiser part of me, one that somehow knew that the thoughts swirling around my mind that seemed to keep me in a never-ending cycle of self-loathing were not true (at least not the whole truth). And I knew (or at least hoped) that there were answers out there that could help me. I just needed to find them And I went searching. Everywhere I could. Books, audios, seminars, workshops, therapists, coaches, schools, you name it. And little by little, (and sometimes in huge avalanches), it worked.

I learned more about myself and my mind and how thoughts work, how emotions work, what keeps us stuck, and what breaks us free. I learned to be more gentle with myself at times, and take care of myself, and I learned when to push myself, and challenge myself, and not accept my own stories of my smallness. In short, my life transformed. My self-perception transformed. I started to love myself more, to love and appreciate my life more, and was no longer living on the edge of internal catastrophe. I found my center, the place inside myself where I can always come back to, and know that I'm ok and will be ok...no matter what. And if ever I lose sight of that, I have proven pathways back.
