Mindful Moment Monday - Pausing the True Crime and Murder for a Mental Health Check

In this special episode of Love and Murder, we pause thenormal cases of passion and peril to focus on the most crucial narrative of all—your well-being. Join me, Ky, in a gentle detour from our usual true crime explorations, as we embark on a journey inward with a much-needed mental health check-in.

Last week's cases of suicide may have left a lingering shadow, a weight that we carry as we immerse ourselves in the darker chapters of humanity. Today, I'm reaching out, not with another harrowing tale, but with an open heart and a caring question: How are you doing? Truly?

It's okay to feel overwhelmed, frightened, or even detached. It's natural when facing the narratives we share, or the storms you weather in your own life. But remember, you're not alone in this. If the burden feels too heavy, I'm here to remind you that there's strength in seeking support—be it from friends, family, or professionals.

Together, let's take a moment of respite. Close your eyes and join me in a simple, yet profound breathing exercise designed to soothe your spirit and ease your mind. With each inhalation, envision tranquility reaching every corner of your being, and with each exhalation, release the weight that's been holding you down.

As we conclude this episode, keep in mind that it's perfectly okay to step back and nurture your mental health. The world of true crime can wait; your peace cannot. And if you find yourself in crisis, remember help is just a call or text away at the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255 or text "STRENGTH" to 741741.

Take care, dear listener. You are valued, you are significant, and you are loved. Until we meet again, remember to embrace self-care and keep the mantra close to your heart: All love and no murder, y'all.
