Time for a Mental Makeover?
The old adage suggests doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome is simply irrational. It’s easy to fall into this trap when your mental resources are exhausted or it’s too hard to think of alternative ways of doing things.

Sometimes we get physically run down so slowly, we don’t realise that we’re not as fit or as healthy as we once were. It’s the same with mental health. Sometimes we become so caught up in doing what we have to do that we don’t realise the quality of our thinking, emotions or behaviour has deteriorated due to mental fatigue, and that our reasoning and ultimately our outcomes are no longer optimal.
If you find yourself wondering why everything has become such a mental effort, or if you suspect your thoughts or emotions could be more focused, it might be time for a mental makeover, and what better time to make some changes than Spring?
If life is an emotional rollercoaster, even small annoyances or setbacks cause distress, you constantly feel stressed, you rarely laugh. If you are unable to judge when to persist with things and when to let go, or if you feel isolated and alone, it might be time to seek assistance to retune your approach to life.
Meaningful change doesn’t happen overnight or without effort and commitment. Negative thoughts, emotions and behaviours can result from many factors, including genetics, past experiences and current stressors. Support provided by a psychologist can assist in making and maintaining the changes necessary for the optimal enjoyment of life. ca
