Re: CBT + MEDS

We see this happening everyday in coaching. Meds and the program/tools work great together for a lot of people. We are all trying to find the right recipe for our own personal story. There is no right way or wrong way it's just what works for you. I tell everyone to work toward 6 months of feeling g...

Re: Share your most successful coping strategies

Great stuff! I find the breathing priceless as well. I also do yoga for the stretching and it just slows me down. I love all of the work we have put into being so aware of our mind and body and managing it in a balanced healthy way. We are really bright, amazing people. Celebrating all of our effort...

You are on the right track with getting back to using your program. Pay close attention to lessons 2, 3, 8, 9 and 10. If you would like to schedule a free c...

Usually we lose power during heavy storms but we were blessed to have it when so many people didn't. As we headed south through ...
