How’s your relationship with yourself?

Sometimes, it’s about recognising that the acceptance we may need most isn’t found in others, but within ourselves.

For centuries artists have helped us to ponder our emotions & how we respond to them.

Deep gratitude to @byjuliabakay for her artistic interpretation of themes discussed in #TheTreeThatBends book, which focuses on how we can navigate the emotional storms that life can bring.

Notice how you are perceiving time in your life. It makes a big difference to how you experience it.

“Knowing how your memories are created can help you create better memories”

Check out my new blog post in @PsychToday about the “peak-end rule”

KEY POINTS

✅ The most extreme aspect of an experience as well as how it ends are crucial in shaping the memories we create.

✅ The duration of the most intense moments does not influence the effect of the "peak-end rule."

✅ Knowledge of the "peak-end rule" can be used to help create more memorable experiences.
