Where do emotional problems come from? Often, they developed during childhood if you had emotional needs that were't getting met. These behaviors often helped you get some of your needs met, some of the time. The problem arises when you change environments, and those same behaviors no longer work. The good news? They can be changed.

I wish I had this little guy’s mindfulness skills. He always finds what is joyful in the moment.

The phrase, “radical acceptance,” sounds kinda punk rock. Radical acceptance means accepting (all the way) situations that are outside of your control without judging them. It doesn’t mean WANTING these circumstances or giving up trying to change them. It is simply acknowledging the truth of your limitations.

Given your current life circumstances, what’s something powerful I can choose to do?
