Quote's of the month"For me I like to have a book to read. If I'm feeling uptight I find a quiet place and read for 20-30 minutes. That really helps to stop the negative circular thinking." - this was said by @Ilovehiking when sharing tips in this topic tuesday in the lived experience forum
"I find point two is important when I find myself sitting in that space for too long and holding on to those feelings is keeping me from moving forward" - said by @Sasha_86 in the carers forum. This comment was in regards to looking at emotional resilience and the responsibility of emotions in talking about emotional resilience
