We have a variety of natural "feel-good" chemicals that support our well-being. If you had to pick one in each category, what would it be?
These can be powerful, but what if you're feeling so strapped for time & energy, that you can barely read this post-let alone figure out how to incorporate these ideas into your life??!
Something's gotta give.
If you're bogged down in the day-to-day and unsure where to start to break the cycle of being in survival-mode, I can help you sort through the barriers and find your way out!

I used to help people develop WRAP plans (Wellness Recovery Action Plans) all the time as a Dual-Diagnosis counselor in an inpatient rehab. One aspect of this is creating a Daily Maintenance Plan.

Here’s a couple questions for you to reflect on:
*At my baseline, what am I like when I’m feeling well?
*What can I do everyday to keep myself feeling as well as possible?

These can be basic things that in and of themselves that are easy to overlook (such as getting to bed/waking up at a certain time, eating regular meals/snacks, drinking enough water, taking regular breaks, getting exercise, staying in contact with others, etc.).

When things get busy, it’s easy to start being less routine about the basics, but what’s the consequence of that?

When we bring intention and awareness to something, it helps us see the benefit and remain conscious of our engagement and commitment to these activities. Oftentimes, reinstating these things back into our daily routine can help us feel grounded again and increase our capacity to manage other stressful triggers.

What are some of the things that are important in your daily maintenance?

It’s easy to get caught up in habitual thinking and behaviors-even when it’s not serving us well. Being willing to let go of what’s not working may be the first step to finding a new solution.

Think about something you’re struggling with & ask yourself:

*What have I already tried?
*How has this *actually* been working for me?
*Have there been any costs/consequences/cons of this strategy?
*In order to work toward a more fulfilling life, am I willing to try something different? If so, what might I gain?
*What are some other ways of thinking/behaving that could serve me better?
*What kind of supports/resources do I need in place for this?
*What strengths/qualities/characteristics do I have that will support my efforts toward change?

This can sometimes be a lot to navigate on your own. If you want to devote some time & space to this or other topics, call me at 607-205-8411 or email [email protected] .
