I’m coming into this blog with three things:

• My daily struggle with severe depression and anxiety

• Several years of Latin language studies, and…

• Shelves of books I bought years ago and haven’t read.

A well-known Latin quotations is “Mens sana in corpore sano.” In English that’s "A sound mind in a sound body,” and I’m trying to embrace that mindset. By finding ways to be active and making time to tackle my to-be-read pile, I hope to improve my own mental (and physical) wellbeing, and I can recommend some books while I’m at it.

Here’s to achieving mens sana in corpore sano antequam insanimo: a sound mind in a healthy body before I go insane.
