Basics

Mood

Mood can be tricky – it goes up and down based upon what is in front of us. How we see ourselves and the world at any given moment can dictate our mood.

We all say we want to be happy, but it’s difficult to acknowledge how sadness contributes to understanding happiness.

Understanding our mood becomes critical in knowing how to better control it.

Mood becomes about being present in the moment when we are feeling good, and accepting down days as normal and part of the process. When we are struggling, we can use strategies, or coping skills, to get back to feeling good.

So much of our mood is how we choose to see ourselves. In general, it seems that we are overly critical of what we see in the mirror. In this case, it becomes essential that we combat this with finding, and highlighting, what makes us great.

Stress Health

Stress is what keeps us alive, and has since the dawn of human existence. 

Stress is healthy if balanced properly. Too much stress debilitates us, while too little can make us unproductive. 

Eustress, or healthy stress, can help motivate and inspire us. Distress, or unhealthy stress, can have the opposite effect, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and “stressed out.” Stress health is the management of both types of stress in your life.

Balancing our stress health makes sure that stress is working for us, not against us. It’s important to develop a better understanding of how stress can work with, or against, our own personal health.

Self Worth

Self Worth is one of the most fragile aspects of the human condition. Yet, one of the most neglected focal points of our personal health. 

Self Worth, at its core, is how we feel about our worth and value to ourselves and others.

It is something we should be working on daily -understanding who we are from within is key to our happiness.

Energy

Energy is our overall motivation to engage in our daily activities, level of alertness, mental focus and physical vigor.

So much affects our energy, and taking care of ourselves with healthy habits can get us there.

Although substitutes can help, they provide a very short term solution to a larger problem. One that can be addressed with some very simple practices.
