22.01.2022 Mindset. Its not just a buzzword. In 2020, you could say we've all had a lot of time to think about what's important to each of us, what we value most, and what we need on a day-to-day basis so our lives make sense to us and feel good. Mindset is also an important part of the osteopathic philosophy. At the practical level, osteopaths work with their patients to ensure they're physically fit and mentally healthy, so as to better launch into new beginnings and feel confident about handling various challenges along the way. For your osteopath, this forms part of their work in checking in on your mindset, and working out where you may need guidance and encouragement in order to reach your goals.
