Yesterday, in a therapy group, one of the members asked this great question:
What helps you do what’s healthy for you?
Do any of my photos from yesterday help?
What helps you do what’s healthy for you?
As you might notice, humor, music and dancing are on my list. Here’s something healthy that includes all three:
Gratitude is on one of my lists, too. Thanks to all who helped me create this post and to you — of course! — for visiting, here and now.
In my office, I have lots of things on the walls, including my white board:
… art work:
… a clock:
… and stickies of various sizes:
That last poster-sized stickie is a list of What Helps (shown in a year-old photograph). People who do group therapy in my office have been adding to that poster for a long time. As you can see, there wasn’t a lot of room for more additions (although we’ve been doing our best to squeeze things in).
A few days ago, I took someone’s advice and added a new poster, right next to that one, titled “What Helps (continued).” Since then, that poster remained empty of new entries.
It can be daunting to add new words to something blank, don’t you think?
Yesterday, there was a break-through:
There’s a lot more room for new entries. Are there any you would like to add to that list?
Thanks to all those who do their best naming actions, thoughts, feeling, quotes, etc. that help them. And thanks to you — of course! — for continuing here, today.
