Rethinking Resolutions: Making Your Emotional and
Mental Health Top Priority in 2010
Rebound from a Tough 2009 with New Year's
Resolutions for a Healthier Inner Self from TherapistFinder.com
(San Diego – December 28, 2009) –
While most New Year’s resolutions revolve around changing your outward
appearance by losing weight or hitting the gym, the California Association
of Marriage and Family Therapists (CAMFT) encourages people to rethink
their New Year’s resolutions this year to focus inward on their emotional
health in 2010.
It’s no secret that 2009 was a difficult year.
Americans suffered from record unemployment, the mortgage crisis, plunging
markets and shrinking checkbooks. The stress took its toll, and it sometimes
took all we had just to get by.
That’s why it’s especially important this
New Year to focus on your emotional health, which can shape your overall
approach to life and color your every day interactions and experiences.
Start 2010 with a fresh perspective and a revitalized mental outlook with
one of these resolutions from TherapistFinder.com.
- I resolve to spend more time with the people I care about most and
less time with people who sap my emotional strength and make me feel
bad about myself.
- I will take ten minutes for myself each do to relax, acknowledge
what I'm thankful for, and focus on the positive aspects of my life.
- I resolve to confront any problems and issues that arise instead
of ignoring them and sweeping them under the rug, whether it is through
writing in a journal, playing music, talking with a friend, or seeing
a therapist.
- I resolve to quite beating myself up about mistakes I made in the
past that I can't change, and I will eliminate my negative self-talk.
- I will find a therapist who can help me cope with emotional challenges
I'm experiencing as a result of a difficult 2009, so that I can live
my life to the fullest.
