Using Procreate and iPads with Young Children in Therapy to Talk about Trauma
Trauma can be a difficult and sensitive topic for young children to talk about, especially if they have experienced trauma themselves. However, children need to have the opportunity to express their feelings and process their experiences in a safe and supportive environment. One way to do this is through art therapy, which can provide children with a creative outlet to express their emotions and work through their feelings.

How To Be An Independent Thinker.
Mind works on the principle of senses. What we see is what we think. What we hear is what we think. Even what we smell is what we think. It also works on the principle of what we have been through in life e.g. if I had a fight recently I will be angry on little things. So the effect of external environment highly determines the mindset of most people in the world.

Why My Vocal Stats Are A Weapon In My Recovery
The path towards emotional well-being is a long one. There's no shortage of metaphors one could use to describe that journey. Many like to employ the idea of climbing a mountain, but I dislike it. For me, it implies that there's a tangible endpoint; the apex of the mountain. Once you've reached the summit, you've done it: You're cured!

Why Bipolar Anger Still Scares Me Even After Decades of Treatment. Top Story - December 2022.
It was 2:35 a.m. when the cat decided she wanted to go outside. I listened to her bang on the blinds for several minutes before I got out of bed and made my way to the patio door. I opened the door and waited for her to step out.

Lost In Their Minds.
Once upon a time I went to the market. I saw many people, some buying fruits, some eating, some cleaning the floor, some calling their loved ones, some were laughing and some about to cry. I saw one thing which was common. I.e. all of them were lost. Only some were actually thinking about what they were doing. Most of them were lost in their minds. Some thinking about how to widen their business. Some how to get a job. Some dreaming of a trip. Some how to get promoted. All of them had thoughts and least of them had right thoughts. I found that the solution for all of those minds was to have right thoughts. But what are right thoughts? Rights thoughts are not the genius ideas or the thoughts of high quality. Right thoughts are the thoughts about what we are doing right now. Because if we have thoughts about anything other than what we are doing, that adds up into stress and most of us then loose the control of our minds and get mad. We cannot solve problems while working. So to think what we are doing right now, I believe are the thoughts of highest quality and thinking about what we are doing gives quality. Example if I'm making a bread and I'm having thoughts about how to make the best bread, I will make the best one. If I will think about anything else, I will make the bread which I was making from years, means I will never improve. So thoughts about present gives quality as well as improvement. Now you may ask this question to yourself, why don't all of us think rightly? I belive most of the minds don't love to think about what we actually are doing. Because that creates a type of mental pressure, which only some do handle. Mind never loves to suffer, it always tries to escape from that pressure. To escape that pressure sometimes it starts to imagine of the better circumstances or have the thoughts about what happened recently. But those who handle this mental pressure never stop improving and they have better control on their lives. Because this pressure means actually our mind is learning new things or improving what we already know. So having right thoughts or presence of mind actually can make us the better thinkers or we can say right thinkers and help us to not get lost. Now the question arises isn't it important sometimes to get lost?
