Here are five quick facts to boost your physical and mental health, so you can feel amazing!\u00a0 It’s time to take charge! It’s time to THRIVE!!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n What you do on repeat (a thought or an action) the brain sees as being VERY important and this becomes our “default.” <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Yep, it’s true. Think about this for a moment. What is something you do every day? Exercise? Meditate? Recognize and replace your negative thoughts? Show compassion for those around you? Practice self-care? <\/p>\n\n\n\n Or perhaps you doubt yourself, see the “bad” in everything around you, or stay up until 3 am scrolling through social media? <\/p>\n\n\n\n You can remodel your brain based off of your behavior and set a new “default” to promote calm, happiness, and health. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Neuroplasticity is the ability of the brain to form new connections and pathways and change how its circuits are wired. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Where to start? Still your mind daily for at least 1 full minute. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This is HUGE.<\/strong> This is a topic that is near and dear to my heart (because I see the negative effects of excessive screen time in ALL my patients). We are all addicted. The facts are staggering–<\/p>\n\n\n\n PLEASE. PLEASE. Please be aware of what is happening in our digital world. Watch “The Social Dilemma” documentary<\/strong>, if you haven’t already (click HERE<\/a> for the trailer). My entire family watched this and my teen boys GOT IT. I recommend this movie to kids 12 and older (maybe younger if your child is excessively on screens and social media, which I do not recommend).<\/p>\n\n\n\n#1 Brain’s Perception: Repetition Shapes Default<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
#2: Be in control of your devices so they DO NOT control you<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
