25.01.2022 Pretending that you're OK is #perfectlynormal in grief - especially now. With so much pain unfolding in the world, sometimes it just feels easier to pretend you...’re ok. The reality of grief is far different from what others see from the outside. Even in non-grief times, our own day to day reality is usually far different from what others assume it is. In grief, that gulf between assumption & reality is even wider. Sometimes you just want to (or desperately need to) keep your head down, get through your day, work, protest, walk the dog, and not feel you have to dive into your grief with every person who asks, "How are you, really?" Though it feels bizarre to not reference your loss, it’s ok to answer "I'm fine, thanks" even when you are not in any way fine. In some ways, doing so is a kindness to yourself: sometimes you just don’t want to go there - maybe it’s the wrong time, wrong place, wrong person. Also? Being a grieving person doesn't mean you’re always going to outwardly appear sad. Just because you're out & about and appear to be OK doesn't mean that you are not in pain. Grief doesn’t look like one thing all the time. How about you? Do you ever tell people you're fine, perhaps even smile, when really you feel like you're falling apart inside? The more we tell the truth about what grief is really like, the more people realize they're not alone. Want to share something with project #perfectlynormal?

24.01.2022 Did you know we can teach our brains to function differently by using the power of our mind? Mindfulness is so helpful because when we have more control over ou...r thoughts, we can change the neural pathways in our brains, making them function more adaptively. . Because our brains are hardwired to constantly scan for threats, they have a tendency to focus on the negative. What’s more, because your brain wants to feel like it’s in control of things, when it can’t fix a problem, it defaults to deciding the problem is you! It thinks if you are the problem, than you can just fix yourself to get the problem solved. . This faulty thinking creates a lot of negative self-talk for us. Don’t understand why you got a poor grade? It must be because you’re stupid! Wondering why your partner wanted to break-up? Must be because you’re so boring! Ugh...NOT helpful, Brain!! . To teach your brain to stop being so mean to itself, you need to practice mindfully taking in the good. Here are some suggestions: 1. Every day, take notice of three moments when you appreciated yourself. Even the smallest things count. 2. Begin a daily affirmation practice. Say these affirmations out loud to yourself! (I like to do this in my car) 3. When you find yourself having a pleasant moment, even over the smallest thing like nice weather or listening to your favorite song, or cuddling your pet at the end of the day, really acknowledge it. This is nice, you might think as you stay with the good feeling for at least 30 seconds, really allowing yourself to soak it in. . What reframes help you with negative self-talk? . . . #positivementalhealth #positivethinking #therapythursday #emotionalwellbeing #positivepsychology #emotionalwellness #emotionalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #yogaforanxiety #mindfulnessquotes #bemindful #selfawareness #selfacceptance #selfgrowthjourney #positivethoughts #bpdwarrior #bpdrecovery #bipolar2 #bipolardepression #bipolarawareness #anxietytips #anxietyhelp #mentalhealthsupport #goodmentalhealth #dbtskills #dbttherapy #emotionalhealth #mentalhealthjourney #emotionalhealing #innerwisdom See more

17.01.2022 If you feel like you can’t function at full capacity right now, there are very good reasons why. Inspired by my dear friend Amy, whose conversation with me on this topic made me say Ohhhhhh. I guess I should stop beating myself up, then. (I haven’t, but I am trying.)
