It’s clear that Jackson’s spiritual wellness is something she thinks about a lot. “In everyday life the first thing I do is pray. I pray in the morning and at night and sometimes throughout the day,” she explains. She’ll also meditate twice a day for 20 minutes, as well as “morning journaling and nightly journaling”.
But, she admits, “I haven’t been good about meditating in the last month, which is probably why I’m here to de-stress.” For Jackson, this “reset” has confirmed how she was feeling. “They ran all these tests on me here and they could tell by the way I breathe that I’m very stressed,” she says.
What helps her? “Community is a really big part of my health. We as humans have always been tribal creatures, we’ve always lived in communities and tribes and groups, and I think there’s a reason for that,” she explains, passionately. “I always feel much better connected.”
