In fact, the only thing that feels natural is lying down and feeling sorry for yourself. Sleep even hurts. Now it's Monday, a week later. I'm in panic mode and have a lot of sh*t to get done. Since it's time to put...

Seeking Refuge

Articles, Goal Setting, Mindful Relaxation, Stress Management, Time Management

Psychology 101 teaches students everywhere that besides food, water, and air, the most basic of human needs is SAFETY. Just watching the news today can be traumatizing. It seems the news networks are building their audience and profits by sensationalizing real and/or perceived threats to their viewers' personal and public safety. We're easily captivated by the shock and horror of natural disasters and man's capability to commit heinous acts. Whatever the headline, it grasps our attention, shakes us up, and dares us to let go.
