We often let ourselves get swept up in other peoples problems as a way to avoid dealing with our own bullshit or sometimes just because it’s hard not to - like I said - energy is contagious as fuck and toxic energy is the most contagious of all. So we have to definitely be aware of that reality and get comfortable catching ourselves when we start sinking into the cycles that we don’t want to get into. 

This is why - I think - so many people harp on the importance of a healthy social group - because toxicity travels. It spreads. But so does positivity. When your friends are fired up about life and hyped about the day ahead - you’re far more likely to be psyched up too. If you have to spend every day picking your friends out of the slumps - and they don’t want to get out on their own - you’re more likely to join them in the slump than they are to escape it. 

You can absolutely bring other people up but they can bring you down twice as easily. So be conscious of your own place, your own energy, your own mindset, and how you’d like to experience a situation before you enter it so you can more effectively notice and catch whenever someone is dragging you into their mess.

There really is a lesson in everything, huh?

PaRx Canada now consists of over 1,000 physicians, nurses, and other medical professionals in B.C., Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Ontario who can prescribe the annual Adult Parks Canada Discovery Pass from the Canadian parks authority.

A University of Saskatchewan student, speaking with CBC news, described the idea that nature should be looked at as the “fourth pillar” of health, alongside diet, exercise, and sleep.

The hedonic treadmill is a metaphor for the human tendency to pursue one pleasure after another. That’s because the surge of happiness that’s felt after a positive event is likely to return to a steady personal baseline over time.

In the same way, the negative feelings you experience after a traumatic event also tend to soften with time.

However, there’s good evidence to show that some kinds of happiness are more durable than others. Pleasure that comes from selfless acts, for example, tends to outlast physical pleasures.

Research also shows that you may be able to increase your long-term sense of well-being through mindfulness, personal growth, gratitude, and investing in relationships. Learning to savor simple pleasures as they happen may also help you hang onto happiness a little longer.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MY LOVE! (how stinkin' amazing is it that the episode was somehow 11:11!? I almost cried. literally.)

Truly couldn't be more excited to have pushed through my initial plan for 66 days and commit to 6 full ass beautiful seasons together.

This episode is one of gratitude and genuine love for YOU for being the type of person in the world that the world needs right now - because if this show resonates with you, YOU ARE the magic. I am ridiculously excited to see where the next 365 days together leads us.

Reminders:

1. nobody is mad at you. if you didn't do anything wrong, quit worrying. if they are mad they'll tell you and if they don't tell you that's on them.
2. you're the creator of your world. you control the momentum created in your life. put your energy into the things you want to see grow.
3. self love and self care are acts of rebellion and community care. keep saving the world by showing up for yourself first.
4. i love you. i am proud of you. and i am unbelievable fucking grateful for you.

Happy one year anniversary!

Medically reviewed by Timothy J. Legg, PhD, PsyD — Written by Rebecca Joy Stanborough, MFA: Rebecca’s article says: 

Psychologists say that when human beings experience something good — a long-awaited promotion, a new car, a winning lottery ticket, for instance — the surge of happiness that’s experienced is likely to return to a steady personal baseline over time.

It’s a phenomenon known as the “hedonic treadmill,” sometimes also referred to as hedonic adaptation.

Interestingly, the same principle applies to difficult events. Most of the time, when people experience a loss or setback, the feelings that accompany the negative event lessen in severity over time.
