A Chat on Mental Health: A Matter of Choice | The Relationship b/w Personal Agency & Feeling Secure

#MentalHealth #PersonalAgency #Choice  Hello Everyone,   Welcome to our first segment on Mental Health, this week!   We're going to talk about how owning our choices, has a positive effect on our overall Mental Health.   There are so many opportunities to offload choice onto other people, or even technologies. We sometimes become so good at putting things off, and at giving others the permission and authority to make choices for us, we lose sight of the benefits that we reap in retaining those choices for ourselves.  Personal agency and our mental health are positively correlated.  The more you make choices for yourself, regardless of the outcome, the more you start to recognize your ability to navigate the world around you, and create a world of your own choosing.   Let's celebrate choice and keep our choices, close to heart.   #MentalHealth #PersonalAgency #Choice #DignityInChoice #SenseofSelf #DecisionMaking #Choose #Accountability #Responsibility  *RESOURCES*   - The Importance Of The Decision Making Process: https://www.everydayhealth.com/neurology/importance-decision-making-process/  - The Importance of Learning How to Make Decisions: https://www.psychologytoday.com/ca/blog/in-flux/201505/the-importance-learning-how-make-decisions  - How to Embrace Struggle to Make Powerful Choices: https://www.joanjakel.com/how-to-embrace-struggle-to-make-powerful-choices/  For all topics related to renewing and rebuilding family, communities and relationships, check out our blogs!  We post bi-weekly:  https://www.spe-projectpurpose.com/blogs  Make sure to come visit us, subscribe to the website, and join our Member's Area for more valuable content:   *SOCIALS*  Website: www.spe-projectpurpose.com   Facebook Page: @ProjectPurposeSPE  Instagram: @ProjectPurposeSPE or my personal account @realistrae  Twitter: @Purpose_SPE  Pinterest: @ProjectPurposeSPE    Podcast: "Support, Protect, Empower - The Project Purpose Podcast"   Now available on the following platforms:    Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7k0gdzY6ID8YHD7yxKiuE8?si=WgsMrqSaSfCCEppQOwXOgg  Breaker: https://www.breaker.audio/support-protect-empower-project-purpose-podcast  Google Podcasts: https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy81YWMxNDNhMC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw==  RadioPublic: https://radiopublic.com/support-protect-empower-project-WDgk4l  PocketCasts: https://pca.st/a2hgm7lh Anchor.fm: https://anchor.fm/projectpurposespe  If you'd like to read my research thesis, "ADHD: Is it a Social Construct or does it have a Neurophysiological Basis?" you can find it at the following address:  https://rachellerealist.wordpress.com​​.   ​I'm more than happy to answer your questions, feel free to send an email to: [email protected]   OUR AUTONOMY, SELF-EFFICACY, COMPASSION & SELF-CONCEPT WORKSHOPS ARE AVAILABLE (AGES 4-8, 9-13 & 14-17) BE SURE TO GO TO THE WEBSITE AND MAKE YOUR PURCHASE!     Do you like the intro/outro music?   Check out the artist on Spotify:   Artist Name: Valdii  Song Name: I Learn
