Changing Lives is a mental health newsletter for people who want to change lives, starting with their own! I share my struggles with depression, anxiety, and self-doubt and the practices I use to overcome those challenges. I also share wisdom from mental health professionals and others, inspirational quotes, book recommendations, and stories of people whose personal suffering led them to help others in remarkable ways. And much more, because everything affects our mental health somehow!
📓3. I’m not a morning person, so I have to ease into my day slowly. The first and most important part of my morning routine is journaling, usually followed by tapping. I use the tapping solution app, which has hundreds of guided tapping meditations, daily affirmations, etc.
Thanks for the tip, Wendi. I’ve never experimented with tapping. I’m intrigued. I just followed your Substack, and I look forward to reading more from you!
Thank you, Lindsay! I was skeptical of tapping at first and didn’t experience the immediate dramatic results that some people have, but over time it’s become a valuable part of my mental health tool kit.
Trusting your intuition is so important isn't it. The more I tune in and listen, the more I can trust it. Sometimes I need to recalibrate if I've been in reaction mode.
