Recovering from the All-Consuming Opinions of Others
Earlier this week I was hammocking up the canyon. I was watching the water and the wind and the birds and bugs all around me and taking in all the little pieces of the world, away from any people but still so alive. I watched this spider walking across it’s web (far enough away from me that I could easily escape at any moment;)) and I realized that little guy (we’ll call him roger) had no interest in my opinion of him. All of my thoughts while watching him had zero effect on the way he made his web or who/ what he interacted with. My thoughts & opinions of roger didn’t even slightly impact his feelings.

These 3 minutes in the morning let you say goodbye to anxiety
I don't know how many mornings I used to wake up to an alarm clock, reluctantly open my blurry eyes, reach out and grab my phone, and then go into my day passively and hurriedly. It wasn't until I learned about mental health, positive thinking, etc. that I realized that mornings are so important and largely determine the state of one's entire day.

Children's Mental Disorder
Unhealthy relationship in a family as cause of children’s mental disorder, yes or no? Our definitions of family vary from person to person, though if you ask, most will say family is about trust, acknowledgement, learning, solidarity, and love, at the very least. Yet, it would also not be surprising that some of those same individuals could describe periods of childhood in which the family relationships were not healthy. This might be parent to parent relationship, parent to child, or anyone that is close enough in daily life to have familial status. Yes, they could say there were less than ideal relationship dynamics, though adults often do not see their family life as having been ’out of the norm’, usually because they survived it, even when problems of neglect or abuse existed.
