Day 3805: What’s stuck in your head

At the end of every Coping and Healing therapy group, I suggest that people name something positive to take away from the session, because “the negative tends to stick.”

What’s stuck in my head right now is the one unpleasant thing I need to do this weekend. In the moment, I am taking a breath and choosing to focus on all the positives instead.

What’s stuck in your head after you look at my images for today?

What’s stuck in my head right now is that the Daily Bitch drinks too much. Also, because it’s Repeat Day (I said “Repeat Day”), I’ll repeat this: the negative tends to stick.

Here’s what I find on YouTube when I search for “what’s stuck in your head.”

If there’s something stuck in your head right now, feel free to stick it in the comments section, below.

What’s stuck in my head (and in my heart) is gratitude to all who help me stick these posts every day, including YOU!

Day 3804: Compliments

Yesterday, in a Coping and Healing group, people talked about compliments. Several said they had trouble accepting compliments because they

  • didn’t believe them,
  • didn’t deserve them,
  • weren’t used to them,
  • felt conceited,
  • felt embarrassed,
  • associated them with past traumas, and
  • were less comfortable with them than they were with familiar negative talk.

Compliments can’t hurt us! Let’s try to accept them with a simple “thank you.”

.

Let’s see if there are any compliments in my other images for today.

Compliments to the U.S. Congress for not sleeping and doing something hard: raising the debt ceiling and averting global fiscal disaster.

Here’s what I find on YouTube when I search for compliments.

Thanks to all who do their best to give and receive compliments, including YOU!

Day 3798: Nothing To Fear

Today is Nothing to Fear Day!

.

Do you see anything to fear in this blog on Nothing to Fear Day?

.

There’s nothing to fear about people’s anger, envy, or bitchiness, which is like cellophane tape. It’s sticky, but you can always peel it off.

Here’s what I find when I search for “nothing to fear.”

There is nothing to fear about watching another video on Nothing to Fear Day.

I have nothing to fear about that 5-second fear-killing technique, so 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

Day 3794: Ceilings

I am floored by all this upheaval about ceilings in the news. There seems to be no ceiling to the angst about the USA debt ceiling.

Do you see any important ceilings in today’s blog post?

It’s nice to have a new musical instrument under our ceilings on National Buy a Musical Instrument Day.

Here’s what I find on YouTube when I search for “ceilings.”

I also find this:

There is no ceiling to how indebted I am to all who help me create these blog posts, including YOU.
