Wellness with Dr. Denis'

Here are five ideas to help you come up with your own ways to hold on to successes to review on days that feel like failures. Do it digitally, with paper, and with keepsakes.

Evidence that you have helped is important on dark days or after making mistakes. You need reminders of the differences you’ve made because you tend to forget.

In this episode, I’ve got five tips to help you nourish yourself with the best evening and all-day routines.

In today’s podcast, evaluate whether what seemed like a good idea for wellness really would contribute to an ideal day. I have four questions to ask yourself. Then, I’ll share some thoughts on a morning routine.
The music is a song called, "Get Well." Learn more here. 

In this episode, I explore the challenge of time, including where you spend the most of your weekly hours, your work. Then, I   suggest adding more of what you want and subtracting what you don’t want.  After this episode, I'm taking a wellness break, but I'll be back soon with Season 3. 

You have challenges that are yours just because of who you are. You don’t get to pick your family members, experiences or genetics. You may have unwanted medical issues, family drama or painful hurts. You were born with characteristics that mean some things are just more difficult for you. That's what we are talking about in this episode.

One way to make your wellness plan easier is to create a block or two of focus time, especially for reflective habits. For five or maybe 15 minutes, shut the door, shut off the devices and give yourself the gift of no distractions.

Make your wellness plan less instead of more.  Less time, less effort, less reason to skip it. 

Let's talk about how to put yourself back together quickly when you need to get back to work, face the family or keep it together for your kids when you need wellness, but can't stop for long.  These aren’t magic solutions to make the problem go away, but I'll share strategies to help you cope in the immediate fallout.

You need strategies to cope in the moment, process what you feel, externalize intense emotion, and put yourself back together. Many times, you have to cope quickly.  How do you take care of yourself in only 10 minutes while maintaining professionalism?
