Hi Christina

 

I think these are really good ideas for anyone with either a mood disorder or a mental illness.  I really like the journal idea.  That way you can go back and look for patterns to behavior and mood.  And it is just fun to write as well.

 

Will have to write down all the titles of these books too...they sound very good. 

 

Thanks so much for sharing all of your ideas with us.  I like your definition of mindfulness too...it is something that can be hard to describe...you did it well.

 

I hope you have a lovely weekend.
