Wisdom in 2021


01/21/2021

In Step Behavioral Health staff and clinicians are here for you! Our clinical staff is available through telehealth services.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
With 2020 in the rearview mirror, did you make new year's resolutions or set goals for 2021?  Or did  you simply opt out, waiting for a return to normalcy?  

Now is a good time to reflect on and gauge inner strengths that  you might be underutilizing during these ongoing trying times.  Ask yourself the following:
  • Do you take time to reflect on your thoughts and gain understanding from them?
  • Are you able to manage your emotions in a healthy way?
  • Do you have the emotional bandwidth to be kind to yourself and/or to others?
  • Are you able to be okay with others having morals and values other than your own?
  • Do your spiritual beliefs give you inner strength?
These questions are directly linked to key components of wisdom as identified by neuroscientists. Growing your wisdom will help toward setting and meeting your goals for 2021.  Over the next several weeks I will provide an overview of the following elements of wisdom and offer tips to help you apply them in your daily life.  
- Self Reflection
- Self Regulation
- Compassion for self and others
- Flexible mindset
- Spirituality
