The book Minding your Mind comes highly recommended!
Hi everyone,
I recently finished reading the book Minding your Mind -- I thought to let everyone know about it on these forums because I thought many would want to know about a book that, really at core, does a superb job of make clear just what we can all do to take care of our mental health. Below I have attached a link to the book.
If I may, I would like to share a quote that really resonated with me a lot:
“As Adults, we generally become more independent and autonomous. We are more likely to be able to decide, ‘Actually, I don’t want to fit in with that group. Trying to be like them is not making me happy or content.’ Ultimately, we realize we have preferences and choices, but this can be a long and complicated process for humans. The more autonomy we have, the more important it is for us to keep learning about ourselves: What makes us happy? What makes us unhappy? What groups do we feel comfortable, and uncomfortable, in? Who do we like being around? Who do we find it difficult to relax with? What are the things we will not compromise on? The more we know, the better decisions we can make.”
