Back Pain

Having a weekend plan that differs from the week routine is one of the best tips I ever learned in therapy, and I wanted to share!
How can you find time for an enjoyable hobby, outing or self care this weekend?

I wish I had learned this tip earlier on, but even though it took 40 years- it has been life changing.

What's one thing you've been waiting to feel "ready for' to do?

Whether it’s for a holiday, birthday, special occasion, or just because, a thoughtful gift can go a long way in lifting your mood—especially when health conditions keep you home or in bed. Sometimes, loved ones want to show they care but aren’t sure what would be most helpful or meaningful, and may need a little guidance or inspiration.

What’s a gift you’d truly appreciate?

This is a very hard lesson, I know. But so often, our thoughts rule us and make our mental health worse. Learning how to let go negative emotions is SO hard but SO worth it.

One simply way to start would be to "catch" or write down all of your negative thoughts for 24 hours. See where the patterns are, and which thoughts cause the most emotional pain.

Than you can try to stop them when you're thinking them and re frame it.

Let us know if you're willing to try this- or if it's something you've been working on!

Teaching your nervous system and brain that it's safe can be hard work- but it's very rewarding!

Oftentimes, we vent because we think it'll make us feel better. But have you ever stopped to notice how you actually feel after the vent session is over?
Now, this does not mean you shouldn't vent or share problems with a trusted person who can help you problem solve or listen. I just wanted to share a helpful tip I learned in therapy. Since I stopped "venting" as much, my emotional reactions are better and I'm not as upset as often. I hope it helps you today. 🙂

This is a really powerful reframe that was very helpful for me. I hope it will help some of you, too.
