I am sure you guys are all aware (unless you’ve been living under a rock) that mental health has been a big focus this year. With all the goings on of lockdowns around the world, the 24/7 news cycle and our inability to live our normal lives, I feel it has created the perfect storm for the rise in mental health challenges we are seeing as a culture.   We have all been affected by what’s been going on this year. In today’s solo episode, I walk through my toolbox that I use with my client base and myself on how to keep your wellness and mental health in check during a lockdown.   If you know anyone that would benefit from listening to today’s episode, please share with them and get the message out.

What do all humans have in common? We have all played the victim before. Have you ever felt the world was against you? Are you one of those who have succumbed to the victim mentality trap? Ask yourself, when bad things happen, do you take responsibility for the, or do you blame the world? It’s OK to have a pity party now and then. However, if it gets out of hand, it’s easy to start wallowing in victimhood.  In today’s show we take a deep dive into Victim Mentality, why we can easily fall into it and 7 powerful strategies to make sure we stay away from that pity party.   References from Episode:  The 5 Surprising Ways That Meditation Improves You Balance App Calm App Greenlights, Matthew McConaughey  The Gentleman Film The Untethered Soul, Michael A Singer You Get What You Give.
