I find "Instead" effective in gaining and maintaining "Mental Lift" - being, living, hoping, surviving, coping, healing, doing better, improving, enjoying, learning, creating, sharing. How can it help you too?
How "Instead" puts the Focus on our preferred, meaningful and shapeable “Future” that lies ahead and behind the large, wide windscreen in front of us, instead of focusing on the small rear-view mirror of our unfortunate, unwanted and unchangeable “Past”
Despite difficult situations being unavoidable, a Solution-Focused approach offers a way to move towards the solution and what we want instead, and in doing so also reduces the risk of negative mental health consequences that might result from remaining stuck.
