To anyone out there dealing with a chronic illness or knows someone with a chronic illness, who has COVID, recovering from COVID, or even anxiety or depression, take a few minutes and learn about "Spoon Theory." It can help you understand what you might be going through, what someone you love goes through and why some people run out of spoons or keep one in their back pocket. https://cdn.totalcomputersusa.com//BYDLS-TheSpoonTheory.pdf

So I have Philips Hue light bulbs in my office because I hate overhead fluorescent lights. Today, my client asked if we could have a single light turned on above them. The result is pictured. What do you think? Would you go to therapy if your therapists office changed the color of the lights? Or had mood lighting? #therapy #thisistherapy #lighttherapy #huetherapy #philipshue #narrativetherapy #narrativetherapist #spotlightisonyou #moodlighting #huntingtonbeach #outsideofthebox #nocookiecutters
