Journaling can serve as more than just a store for your memories. Did you know that it can help with mental clarity, self-understanding and anxiety-relief? Writing your thoughts can be therapeutic. This in turn can improve your mental health. The Benefits of Journaling: 1. You become more self-aware: By writing your thoughts, you may find the solutions you were seeking were right inside of you. You have the chance to process them better as you write them down or after you write them. This awareness can help you understand harmful and beneficial behavioral patterns. Hence, you will know what behaviors to reinforce and which ones to do less of. 2. Reduces Stress and Anxiety: Sometimes anxiety is caused by mental over-stimulation. Holding too many thoughts in your head can be draining and feel like a burden. With journaling, you have a valve that allows you to release some of these thoughts. When your RAM is holding fewer things, then you can now focus on your priorities with a cleaner slate. 3. Promotes Emotional regulation: We are all different. Some people are hyper-aware of their emotions. Some have barely any knowledge of them. Writing can benefit the latter by bringing to the fore, what they are feeling. Unconscious emotions can be a strong driving force. They sometimes lead to self-sabotage, addictions, low productivity etc. However, when they are brought to the light, they are acknowledged and processed. The next step would be to give them a channel of healthy expression. People who are hyper-aware of their emotions may need an outlet to reduce overwhelm. A private place to just write everything they are feeling that provides self-validation and eases the mind. 4. Supports Personal Growth: You have to be your biggest cheerleader. You can do this by tracking your achievements and goals, both big and small. This is very important in fostering self-confidence, self-esteem and self-efficacy. Sometimes, people are not aware of your smallest achievements or milestones that really matter to you. You need to validate them even if they do not fall in line with what others generally value. 5. Facilitates Problem Solving: Your thought patterns and ideas become clearer each time you journal. It is easier to think critically, when you write down your ideas. This enables you to understand potential solutions and outcomes. As a result, you can decide the best path to take for your situation. 6. Encourages Gratitude: -Our days can be so full of different experiences. Sometimes one negative event can eclipse ten other positive events if we are not careful. When we journal, we get to reflect on all the good things that happened too. This puts things into better perspective and in turn we practice gratitude much better. 7. A Low-Cost Therapeutic Tool: You can start journaling write now to witness its benefits. Your phone, tablet, physical/digital journal or laptop will suffice. Share your journaling experiences in the comments.

Children with ADHD are often misunderstood despite being bright and capable. As an invisible medical diagnosis, it can be difficult to recognize and support these kids when they struggle in school. That's where I come in. I provide support to parents to effectively advocate for their child. Let's work together to ensure these children get the support they need to succeed. #ADHD #ParentingTips #Education #ChildAdvocacy

In the world of ABA, there are two main factors I'd say: knowing what to do and actually doing it. Often times, the former is easy to achieve as society, family, friends, doctors, BCBAs etc...are willing to tell you what to do but might struggle to "show" you what to do. At Hear and AdHere, we aim to teach our clients by showing them what to do. Based on both my personal and professional experience, I realized that most parents "hear" what is being said but yet can not "see" what is being said within their family lifestyle, home cultural, or work schedule, and it is where change is made...adhering to what is said. I realized that most parents are willing and eager to play with their child and be an active participant of their progress but simply do not know how to practically apply what is spoken to their environment. ... And this is where Hear and AdHere comes in. We work with our families and children primarily in their homes to help them apply those behavioral strategies to their own family dynamic. We also provide the convenience of virtual parent coaching and life/adaptive skills that give parents the additional support (i.e. knowledge) to understand the significance of putting into practice those goals written to ensure progress forward. We are happy to serve a community of people needing what we offer. We cannot serve everyone but for the ones we do, we do so exceptionally well.
