Episode notes

In this episode, Cindy and Karen discuss:

The evolution in the treatment of mental health and the increase in mental health issues with the new generations.
Dr. Cassiday’s studies in positive psychology and how it is coloring how she is handling wellness during this unusual time we are living in.
Characteristics of a resilient person and what it means to be a resilient person.
What good humor is and developing it within ourselves.
Ways to boost our own and others mental health with just the little things.

Key Takeaways:

Uncertainty is highly unlikely to trigger worry. How you handle uncertainty is the real enemy, not the situation itself.
Start digging out the present moment problem. You will feel empowered, not overwhelmed.
There are moments of beauty every single day, even when we are in a hard situation.
Tracking daily gratitude every day, just three things each day, and you can help to strengthen your mental health and even decrease depression.
Track and share the funny things in your day - celebrate the moments of absurdity and joy and laughter.

"Hope is what happens when you believe that there’s a better future, and that you’re the one to get there, even if you don’t know how to do it right now. That you have the ability to learn on the job, so to speak." — Dr. Karen Cassiday Connect with Dr. Karen Cassiday:Twitter: @DrKarenCassidayFacebook Group: Moms Without Worry Community Website: MomsWithoutWorry.comLinkedIn: Dr. Karen Lynn Cassiday TedxTalk: Imperfect Fear: Why Parenting Doesn’t Need a Handbook
