The Power of Now: How to Be Present
Manage episode 341643121 series 3339840
In today's episode of "Help Me, Rhonda!," clinical psychologist Dr. Rhonda Karg teaches the core mindfulness and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) skills of Observe, Describe, and Participate. These skills can be used to help improve your mood, regulate your big emotions, cope with stressful situations, and live a more rich, full life by being right here, right now. She describes the benefits of being present to help reduce symptoms for a wide variety of mental conditions, including anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and substance abuse by boosting your serotonin and preventing you from being out in the future (anxiety) or back in the past (depression) because you are right here, right now, in the present moment.
