Hi, I’m Jade.

It’s so nice to meet you!

I guess you’re wondering what this is all about? In all honesty, I’m still trying to figure it out. But let me take a shot at explaining how I ended up here, and what I am trying to achieve with AwefulMind:

I have always been a deep thinker, fascinated by the world, by the human brain, and how we interact with the world. How we think, feel, change and behave. It can be overwhelming. And the more I grow and learn, the more I become overwhelmed by these thoughts. I desperately want to make sense of it all. Even though I know that so many have tried before. AwefulMind is a place in which I can work through this journey of understanding, and hopefully find others who share the same passion and curiosity.

Having been on my own introspective journey for years, battling with mental health challenges and spending hundreds of hours training my brain to cope, my hope is that someone may see my writing and feel slightly less alone. If I can bring some meaning or light to just one person then it will have been worth it.

You see, I believe that this world is extraordinary. Not just in the big spectacular parts but in the tiny details that surround us everyday. I hope that, with time, you might come to believe it too.

I dream of a world where kindness and compassion are the default, not just in how we treat one another, but also how we treat ourselves. I am trying to understand what self care really looks like and how altering our attitude towards ourself and the world around us can be completely life changing.

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, then please do follow along and help me make sense of the miracle that is human life!

I can’t wait to hear your thoughts,

Jade
