Transcript

Welcome to the Best Life University podcast. I'm Dr. Lynn Brown, A counselor and educator. In this podcast, I discuss a myriad of topics related to the five dimensions of personal growth, Mental, Social, Spiritual, Emotional, And physical. Thank you so much for listening. Today's topic is Achieving Psychological Wellness, Risk-Taking. Risk-taking is a very important factor in achieving psychological wellness. First, Take intellectual risks. Expand your mind by exposing yourself to new ideas. The saying, A mind expanded by a new idea, Never returns to its original size is appropriate. The result of learning is growth and an improved self-esteem. Take spiritual risks. If you are not at peace spiritually, Find it through yoga, Meditation, Changing religions, Etc. Being at peace with yourself makes all else easier. Take physical risks by engaging in a sport where mind and body must work together, Where concentration is mandatory. Most of us have lost touch with our bodies. We think of ourselves only from the neck up. By participating in a sport that involves some risk, You'll get in touch with your body. Take emotional risks. Risk intimacy. It is not unusual to close emotional doors after being hurt by someone. But doing so will inhibit your ability to be happy. The tendency is to substitute food or something else for the intimacy of others. So take a risk by getting close to others, Even though humans are flawed. Copyright 2019, Lynn Baronius Brown.
