This is my baby granddaughter, Ellie. She's my pride and joy. Makes me smile every time I see her cute face. She's good for my mental health. Babies usually are. Neuroimaging research has shown that in grown ups, the orbitofrontal cortex becomes very active quickly--140ms or a seventh of a second. The orbitofrontal cortex is strongly involved in orchestrating our emotions and pleasures. Look at a baby today. REALLY look. They are so precious and VERY good for our mental and emotional health.

Happy Saturday, Folks! I've been saying this for YEARS. Especially to my kids. I know what it is to hate your job. Why spend your short life span doing that? It just makes you feel bad about yourself and your life. One of my favorite songs right now is Beyonce’s Break My Soul. She encourages finding motivation and a new foundation. She talks unambiguously about work. There is joy to be had in work. What brings you joy? What are you passionate about? What are your natural gifts? I know you need to pay your bills. Find a way to create a life you can sustain, not disdain. You got this. Thanks, Wendy Norbom for posting the graphic. Reach out to deanna@thehealingconvo.com if you want guidance and motivation.
