I know many times we get overwhelmed coping with all the change going on in our lives. Even the routine changes can deplete our energy. Taking the time to find and expand your social support systems and making connections take some time. This is so very important. It lights you up! 🙂
Kathryn Britton writes in her article “We can rewire our brains in new ways, but doing so requires repeatedly performing new behaviors, over and over, and repeatedly stopping the reinforcement of old behaviors that had become automatic. People tend to have a small budget of energy for intentional change so they need to be selective.” However, it’s really not as hard as you think. It’s more about being aware and making a different choice until it becomes a habit. Be selective and use your energy to stay or create positive connections..
Enjoy! This article was written at the beginning of the year, however, it has all the ingredients for how to make changes. She weaves in both practical ideas and research. (copy and paste urlhttp://pos-psych.com/news/kathryn-britton/200901071414)
