Improving our communication

by Dr. Waugh on 03/11/10

In our existance we find three important psychological aspects: the thought, the feeling, the behaviors.  These three aspects are interrelated in a way that changes that are produce in one area will affect other areas as well. If the individual changes the way they think about things, the world and themselves, they can experience a different way of life and a different behavior.

   Let me provide an example: if after you fail in doing something, you start thinking " I am useless, I cannot do anything right" your emotions are going to be different from  "well, I failed this time but I am human and I made a mistakes like everyone else".  In the first example we see feelings of sadness, hopelesness while in the second reaction these feelings are not going to be as intense or prevent the person from trying again.

Have you ever experience something like this? Do you want to share your feelings and reactions?

 

 

When we are worried about our teens

by Dr. Waugh on 03/10/10

Is there any reason for parents to be concerned about the future of their teens?  Specially when they are sleeping too much, playing games all the time, watching tv, or on their phones constantly?  How would you share with others your concerns and find answers to your situation.  Improving our relationships require improving our knowledge. What is your concern?
