Quotes to ponder:
"Anxiety is a signal, not a sentence. It's your body's way of telling you that something needs to be noticed and perhaps changed."
"Worry exaggerates and threatens with worst-case scenarios that are unlikely to happen. Teach your child to stand up to worries by using the NED approach: Notice, Externalize, and Dispute the worry."
"Empathy creates the safety that is essential for emotional expression. Laughter changes the body chemistry to decrease stress hormones that contribute to anxiety."

In "Love is Not Enough - Part 1," Mark Manson of MarkManson.net delves into the complex nature of love, challenging the often romanticized notion that love is all one needs for a fulfilling relationship. Through contrasting examples of John Lennon and Trent Reznor, Manson illustrates how idealizing love can lead to overlooking essential values like respect, humility, and commitment, ultimately sabotaging relationships.

Quotes to ponder:
"When we believe that 'all we need is love,' then like Lennon, we’re more likely to ignore fundamental values such as respect, humility and commitment towards the people we care about."
