Be a Part of It...Community is Good For Your Health!

It's Proven...
Being a Part of a Community is...GOOD for your Health.

Will have to keep it short and sweet today.
Is at an all weekend conference of Ethical Practice of Psychology and Psychotherapy. (yes, fulfilling requirement for licensure renewal)

Today there were debates on "To Medicate or Not To Medicate."

There were very convincing data showing that a genuine and trusting therapeutic relationship can be just as effective and maybe more effective than antidepressants.

Studies also showed that being active and engaging in a community of relationships on a routine basis allow a healthier mentality and emotional health.

I guess today's encouragement is to invest and to keep up on your relationships, friends, family, faith community, interest groups, etc.

Relationships are good for your healthy and keep you sane!
