Journaling was something I used to associate with my teenage years—scribbling random thoughts, venting after a bad day. But it wasn’t until I began tracking my anxiety triggers that I realized how powerful a simple notebook could be. If you’ve ever felt like anxiety sneaks up on you out of nowhere, you’re not alone. But…
Ever been reading handwritten notes and suddenly, out of nowhere, these little floaters drift across your vision? Yeah, me too.

It always catches me off guard—the moment when city lights at night turn into a swirling mess of tiny floaters drifting across my vision. If you’ve experienced this, you know exactly what I mean.

Plank holds are supposed to be simple, right? You just drop to the floor, brace your core, and hold still. But for many of us, they’re anything but simple when back pain creeps in.
