Vitamin G: The health benefits of green space

by Lori Stevic-Rust, PhD ABPP | Mar 11, 2013 | Health Topics

COVID has brought many changes in to our lives–most of them frightening, sad, isolating and overwhelming but the virus has also pushed us to spend more time outdoors. We have learned that social gatherings are relatively safer when they occur outdoors. We know...

Don't make a New Year's Resolution!! Typically, Don't make a  New Year's Resolution!!

Typically, resolutions are about goals that require us to give up something or change something that deep down we really love doing--even if it is bad for us. 

That's not to say that committing to losing weight, quitting smoking, getting more exercise, etc are not important.

 It's to say that resolutions that require deprivation are very hard to keep if they aren't tied to a bigger goal that you can envision. 

Let's be honest -- we are all beyond saturated with feeling deprived. The year 2020 has taken so much from so many and continues to leave us longing for connection, energy, and purpose-- not more deprivation. 

But the New Year ushers in hope for change. Let's harness that hope to make real and lasting improvements in our lives.

Science is very clear that what we can envision, we can achieve. Our brain becomes rewired to guide us and motivate us towards the things we can envision and believe we can achieve. 

Whether you use a vision board, meditation , coaching, or a combination of strategies to help you achieve your desires for 2021, envision it in detail, and achieve it.

Cheers to a healthy and purpose-driven New Year!!

Teaching children how to become an #upstander ! Teaching children  how to  become an #upstander !

Such a thrill to work with children across the country as they share stories about bullying and standing up for each other. #upstanderkids #upstander #upstanderchallenge 

When we teach children to identify their own feelings, we guide them to learn how to identify feelings in others. 

This is the roadmap to learning empathy! 👭👩🏿‍🤝‍👨🏼👨🏿‍🤝‍👨🏼

Grateful for the opportunity to teach children about moving from being a bystander to an Upstander !!

Reading to children!!

Covid has challenged us to dig deep to tap into ou Covid has challenged us to dig deep to tap into our resilience .

While there are many ways to cope, research is clear that art and creative activities positively impacts our brain.

The creation of art raises serotonin which improves our mood and shifts our outlook.

Engage the visual right side of your brain and enjoy the positive shift in your ability to cope!

This was my latest project inspired by a piece of canvas I found in the basement !!

What would Nana say? Shortly after the Cleveland What would Nana say?

Shortly after the Cleveland Indians announced that they would be changing the name, my phone started to blow up with people asking what Nana would say about the change.

I sat for a moment listening to her voice and cobbling together the many baseball conversations that we shared over dinner, in the car, on the couch, or let’s be honest, anywhere that she could slip baseball into the dialog. 

In fact, one of the last things that Nana said on her death bed was about “her team.”

❤️⚾️

I imagine that if reporters could ask her today how she feels about the name change of her beloved team, this would be her response.

“The things that make us happy, successful or even entertained will be “ruined” if it comes at the cost of bringing pain to another person.”

Nana loved her team, but not because of the name or the mascot. She loved the crack of the bat, the thrill of the steal, and the heart-pounding excitement of the grand slam. But mostly, she loved her “boys,” the players. 

On Nana’s death bed, she reminded us to tell her “boys” she would be watching them from another seat.

Whatever her “boys” will be called in the future, I am confident that Nana will be smiling, knowing that we are “taking care of each other” by using her gift of compassionate empathy.
