Welcome to my blog!

Welcome! My name is Justin Solis and this is where I will be logging my experiences with meditation using the Headspace app. This app was created for all age ranges and has a variety of types depending on what mind set a person wants to be in (e.g. sleep, relaxation, etc.) which I will be using stress as my target. I am a college student currently looking to further my education further, meanwhile holding a job, paying bills, and attempting to make time for myself and my family, I am overwhelmed. To handle this, and my sanity, I have decided to focus on decreasing my stress levels as a major goal.

Meditation has been around for centuries and provides many useful benefits to both mental and physical health. My goal is to consistently meditate for 10 weeks in order to create a habit, one that I hope to continue following for as long as I am able to.

About me

I am a 23 year old student at Whittier College currently taking Health Psychology and attempting to improve myself by decreasing my levels of stress. I am currently working, taking care of family, and trying to prepare myself for my upcoming GRE, which are just some of the stressors I am currently facing. I have majored in Psychology and although learning about mental health for more than four years, I struggle with keeping it a priority. I believe this experience of meditation can help me feel more relaxed throughout my day and enjoy my free time even more. If you’d like to see my journey, follow the links on this page!
