Mental Health

Semi Deep Thoughts While Connecting To WiF

Kryptonite strikes unexpectedly. One moment, you’re in control, and the next, everything feels off. It’s like a force that shatters your momentum, leaving you stuck, unsure of the next step. It creeps in quietly, often unnoticed until it’s too late, paralyzing your ability to move forward.

It doesn’t just disrupt your flow; it devastates your sense of clarity, leaving you second-guessing everything.

At times, a great life strategy is to notice patterns, evaluate circumstances, take a deep breath and ask yourself….

“What is my kryptonite?”
— Phillip O'Rourke

NaAsiaha Simon and the Gem City Selfie Museum

Out of her own journey, the Gem City Selfie Museum was born. A two-time brain surgery survivor, NaAsiaha (NY) found that color therapy not only helped her during her recovery but also through her diagnosed depression. She created the Gem City Selfie Museum because she wanted to provide a space for people to have positive life-changing experiences and a space to heal using photography.

As a mental health advocate and champion for mental health awareness, she says that it was her own personal battles with physical and mental health that sparked the idea for what is now becoming very well known as the Gem City Selfie Museum. gemcityselfie.com
