A Quick Pitt Stop: how many ways can you get 6? finding gratitude, pool noodle wars. why won't they stop touching themselves?!

On this weeks episode I am embracing all things summer and DIY.  I stripped and refinished end tables we have had in storage for years.  I mowed the lawn twice this week... I feel like an frekin rockstar - all the kids are over and eating all the snacks and playing with pool toys outside the pool in unconventional ways and I'm not even mad about it Also- why the F won't they stop touching themselves... its a little ridiculous lastly- in my geeked out psych world, talking about how we can get to the same place differently is huge- we can never UNLEARN anything but we can RELEARN or learn something NEW!  for example, 3+3=6 was all you knew until you learned that 4+2 ALSO= 6...even 2+2+2=6 even an extra step sometimes is needed... helping clients realize that we can never unlearn but we can relearn and if we can relearn addition we can  learn ANYTHING.  We can ALWAYS add to current state of mind and look at life different with fresh perspective and new gratitude for learning something new, even when it doesn't align with our established beliefs. This is hard, like REALLY hard, but holding space for my clients to process this in real time is my life's work and I couldn't be more all in on it.  -e
