So everything starts wonderfully, goes lovely, and ends up great when we have the right mindset. So how can we do it? How can we get there? We're going to talk about that today, so relax and settle in and listen up because your stress therapy session is about to begin right now. Hey, beautiful people. It's time for some stress therapy. A podcast about how to meditate and get better at stress for people living in the real world. Finally, a place to Park. My 25 plus years of experience of working as a psychotherapist in the mental health field. And now your host, me, the stress therapist, Sherri Flake. Hey, beautiful people. What's up? So we've been talking a lot about how to get started with a new meditation practice. But most of what I'm talking about really helps with every kind of new behavior that you're trying to make habitual, right? And just feeling good about things, like feeling. Okay, like your mental health, like your physical health, all of it really depends on how you're thinking about things. Okay. And I'll tell you, now that I've been on this planet for over a half a century, I'm just saying that mindsets are a good mindset. It's. I don't know, it seems a little less common as I get older. I seem like even my friends that are in a good mood or in good health or happy marriages or whatever, they still still have these kind of occasional yucky mindsets. And I'm sure I do, too. We all do. We all have this, like, ugh, whatever about something. And we need to make sure that when we're having negative thoughts about something or a mindset that doesn't really work for us, that we become aware of that so we can change it. Okay? So even though we think that, oh, you know, yeah, I'm getting older, I'm a little old lady, or a lot of people are talking about, yeah, now that we're older, you know, time goes by too quickly or, you know, getting older is not for wimps or whatever it is...
