Holistically You
Reader submitted poetry:
insomnia, you own me
my thoughts, you control me
my mind can’t slow down at night
i try to rest but something aint right
my chest feels the opposite of light
and when i try to relax, my mind and body fight
i don’t know why but i need to cry
i don’t know what i have bottled up inside
i tried to pray it away
but it won’t cave
to my anxiety, am i a slave?
Hi there! Thank you for visiting my site. I received my Master's in Biophysics and Physiology with a concentration in Integrative Medicine and Health Sciences from Georgetown University. I enjoy writing evidenced based articles in health, research, science and advocacy, with minority issues and interests always at the forefront. I am interested in exploring the mosaic we create for ourselves throughout our lives where parts of myself and others intersect, as I believe that it is at these points where individuals are they’re most raw and vulnerable. Those two things breed passion and understanding, which in turn can lead to change in how we take care of ourselves and others. View more posts
