A Little About Me.
Hello Sunshine!
My name is Madelyn Holmes! I am a junior currently, at Appalachian State University and my major is Public Health with a minor in Non-Profit management. Before I came to Appalachian State I studied at West Virginia University in Morgantown, West by God Virginia so I like to think of myself as a true Mountaineer at heart. I currently work at Lost Province Brewing Co. on Depot St off King so if you're ever in there don't be afraid to say hello, I love meeting new people!
​
I began my journey into a mindful sensation this summer when a friend of mine, Hailey Howard, reached out and told me of an app called Calm. The first session is free and it takes you through different meditation processes that help you become more mindful, and ease your thoughts when they get overwhelming. Before using this app my way of relieving stress was to go on a drive and listen to music (which I still do on occasion). However, using this app has helped me focus on one thought at a time and realize that I can control my mind when having feelings of anxiety.
