Becoming a BETTER You!
You MATTER!
Wow! What a thought to ponder. Too often, people suffer from burn out by not taking the time to take care of themselves. No disrespect to anyone or any subject matter, but lately I’ve been reading, hearing, or seeing headline titles: “Black Lives Matter”, “All Lives Matter,” but I have a question, have you ever said to yourself… “I MATTER?!” Of course you do!
As I embark on this journey of becoming a Mental Health Professional, taking care of myself is an essential component in this field. During my first semester, one of my dearest professors’ told me, very adamantly, “you need to begin to take care of you!” You will not be of any help to anyone else, unless you take the time to help yourself. What an eye-opener! She further said, “…you need to deal with your own junk, because clients can see if you‘re not all together well yourself.” However, please understand that this does not imply that Mental Health Professionals ( I’m still a student) are perfect,and we have it all together. That is the furthest thing from the truth. However, we learn coping skills, learn ourselves, and most of all the behavior of others. Everyday is a learning opportunity. Each day we rise, we can welcome the day with, “Good morning Lord!” The day is filled with endless possibilities and opportunities that can propel you to the next level in your dreams and destiny. One mistake people make is that Mental Health Professionals are mind-readers, but we don’t assume that role, nor do we try. But what I find to be true, is that we are observers of humanistic behaviors. And no, we’re not nosey (wink).
On this blog page, you will find many helpful attributes concerning life, as this blog will not be focused on just one thing or topic. Some days we will talk about outfit inspirations, health, wealth, spirituality and more. Most importantly, we will learn how to love ourselves with the utmost respect, and actually take care of us. For too long, we’ve looked to others to do this, but now is the time for us to become proactive about us because YOU MATTER! There will be no comparison, but simply enjoying the person God created us to be. Why? Because we are fearfully and wonderfully made!” (Psalm 139:14)
