Abstract:
If you have depression or just suffer from low mood and lack of motivation, you know that your life isn't going to change with one grand, sweeping gesture. But you can make important decisions every day whether its getting off the couch and going for a walk, signing up for a course in pottery or screenwriting, or just setting aside some time to meet and chat with a good friend over coffee. These little things wont change your life all at once. But over time, they will shape the way you live and see the world and keep you on a path to wellness.
Contents:
Approach rather than avoid -- Self-care generates more energy to engage in activities you value -- Procrastination is an emotional decision to avoid discomfort -- When your schedule is full, you do more -- Stay on track by sharing momentary victories.
