  4. Cognitive Behavior Therapy: Is It All Talk or a Doing Therapy?

    Cognitive Behavior Therapy: Is It All Talk or a Doing Therapy?

    Welcome to Episode 15. In this chat fest, we are checking out Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, often referred to as CBT. This particular branch of therapy suggests that our thoughts, emotions, bodily sensations and behavior are all connected. Its most important component is to help people identify and change thinking and behavior patterns that can be harmful and/or ineffective. Ultimately, figuring out the problem, seeing what you're currently doing, and finding a more effective way to achieve success. We have both tried this approach, so we weigh in on the pros and cons from our individual perspective. The origin, the techniques and personal stories ensue. Join us in the conversation.

    Laughter: The Best Medicine and a Natural Pain Killer. It's Free, Fun and Easy, Like Your Mom.

    We are nearing the final quarter of our first season. We have covered a lot of ground during these first three months, from music and art to yoga and social media. In this episode, we are going to talk about laughter. Having a sense of humor is a beautiful thing, with a ton of great reasons to continue doing it. There are many types of humor, which we break down, from the positive, light side to the dark and sometimes negative side with everything in between. We get to hear about Mita's new scooter, her times as a Swedish Psycho and how her hubs may buy her some "shit porn" soon for her new ride. We learn some fun facts about bodily fluids and the Latin word for moisture. Discussions about our favorite types of things that tickle our funny bone ensue. Laughter Therapy is a REAL thing and Laughter Yoga is an actual form of exercise. Clowns were mean to Dumbo and laughing can cause you to burn calories and get your body ready for some non-Summertime Sadness. Join us as we giggle our way through this really lighthearted, fun episode. “A good laugh heals a lot of hurts.” -Madeleine L'Engle, So come and heal with us.

    Fibromyalgia, Princess Vespa and Her Little Gold TeaCup. Creative Copes: Season 1, Episode 13

    Welcome back to part two of our Deep Dive into Fibromyalgia. This episode is a day in the life of Mita, on a "good" day and a "not so good" day. We delve into what sleep is (or isn't) like, a morning routine that starts off in slow motion, with limited energy, moderate pain and a wobbliness that just won't quit. Breaking things down into one day is informative, especially for those of us who do not suffer from this debilitating condition, as well as others who do, and have someone to relate to. We discuss sleep, diet, activities of daily living, pain scales, family and friends, trying to have a social life, managing a household as a parent, adaptations, medications, discrimination and SO MUCH MORE. If you or someone you know and love has been diagnosed with this condition (or maybe are in the process that takes some upwards of ten years to get), then this is the episode for you. It is complex, subjective, dynamic, and limiting. Help us shine some light on this often misunderstood disorder and maybe bring a little more kindness to those who are coping with it. Knowledge is power and we are trying to be raw, open and honest to make this journey feel a little less lonely. Please enjoy this special song contribution original, by Mita, during this episode. ♥ We dive deeper in the blog, Wisdom Walks, on our website: https://creativecopes.wixsite.com/podcast/wisdomwalks.

    Let's Pour Some Gold into Our Cracks and Be Beautiful Again. Fibromyalgia, Kintsugi and a Mita Deep Dive. Creative Copes: Season One, Episode 12

    In this deep dive episode, Mita gets up close and personal with her diagnosis of Fibromyalgia. This is part one, where we discuss this complex condition with very subjective symptoms. We only scratch the surface, as there is a ton to talk about on the subject. Any search engine investigation will turn up thousands of websites, from the informative to the insane. We find out common ailments, the beginning of Mita's journey to her diagnosis, and the complete overhaul one must do to live with this often misunderstood, chronic, invisible illness. Join us as we begin to learn some interesting facts about fibromyalgia. She likens her syndrome to Kintsugi - The Golden Joinery that allows artists to pour gold into the cracks of something that has broken and make it beautiful again. And that is a beautiful approach to healing. We dive deeper in the blog, Wisdom Walks, on our website: https://creativecopes.wixsite.com/podcast/wisdomwalks.

    miniSODE 4 -Brain Fog, Windshield Wipers and the Beacon of Light

    In this miniSODE, we talk about brain fog. “Brain fog” isn’t a medical condition - It’s a term used for certain symptoms that can affect your ability to think. You may feel confused or disorganized or find it hard to focus or put your thoughts into words." (WebMD). Although there are a lot of medical issues that list this as a side effect, some of the more common conditions include Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Cancer and cancer treatments, Pregnancy, Menopause, Lupus, Sleep Disorders, Depression and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS). Brain fog may leave you feeling confused, forgetful, unable to focus, and memory deprived. Although scary, because it feels like you lack mental clarity, it is not dangerous. This can lead to anxiety and the feeling of dissociation. Mita experiences this with the multiple syndromes she has. She lovingly refers to it as Fuzz Buzz and she has learned some coping strategies to help offset the negative feelings. Come listen in as we do a miniSODE about our brains and the windshield wiper ways to help.
