Emergency departments visits for mental health problems have seen a 70% increase in children and adolescents (especially girls) during the Covid-19 pandemic. We need more mental health services in the community. @OPES_CHUSJ @CoalitionPsy.

Mindfulness meditation is a matter of rewiring your brain so that instead of primarily being rewarded by the possibility of reward, you are intrinsically rewarded by all of the beauty that already exists at any given moment right in front of your eyes or in your rich imagination.

I just listened to something I said 5 years ago and I cringed. I’m gonna call that growth.

One of my least favorite things about graduate school is the glorification of stress and being overworked. Nobody should be bragging about the fact that they worked 16 hours in a day. Not only is that probably just inaccurate, but it's also not really something to be proud of...

[Jessica B. Stern, PhD @DrJessicaBStern]

When having a negative thought, (e.g, "I'm not going to succeed", "I'm a terrible parent"), ask:

Is it realistic/useful? Am I making assumptions?

We give a lot of power to negative thoughts. But we can slow them down and reframe them into more realistic and useful thoughts.
