Philadelphia NEDA Walk 2018

This year's Philadelphia NEDA Walk will be held on Sunday, April 22, 2018

Monday Dose of Mindfulness: Mindful Walking

The focus of today’s Monday Dose of Mindfulness is Mindful Walking. This exercise may be an especially beneficial way for individuals who have difficulty sitting still (e.g., ADHD, restlessness due to anxiety) to begin practicing mindfulness, as many other mindfulness exercises involve stillness in the body.

Self-Compassion Versus Self-Esteem

Watch an interesting and informative video of Kristin Neff, Ph.D. discussing the differences between self-compassion and self-esteem at a TEDx Talk.

Relaxation Technique: Visual Imagery

When you notice early anxiety cues, using a relaxation technique can prevent anxiety symptoms from spiraling.  Visual imagery can be an effective relaxation technique.

Understanding Trauma

Trauma can be understood as experiencing or witnessing an event involving actual or threatened serious injury, sexual violence, or death.
