Interconnected

One of my favorite parts about being a marriage and family therapist (or systems therapist) is that we can pick from a wide variety of context to create change. Our minds and bodies are deeply connected and our relationships and environment are also connected to us. When you think of humans in the way, you can see how picking one area of life and making a positive change can impact the other areas.

If you are stuck in some area of your life or if you are feeling depressed or anxious pick one of these areas and do something different:

• A relationship
• work environment
• home environment
• physical health
• give yourself the benefit of the doubt
• how you greet your loved ones
• go to bed earlier
• eat more fruit and veggies
• spend time outdoors

All of these things alter our chemistry and help us to get into another state of being.
