Pain Mangement Powerpoint

Next up, a Powerpoint pres about pain management from healthskills. Feel better.

Five Mindfulness Worksheets

From stillmind.com, here is a series of mindfulness worksheets imported from the sidebar. The doc/pdfs include "Introduction to Mindfulness," "Mindfulness of the Breath," "Step Out of Automatic Pilot," "Body Scan," and a "Mini-Mindfulness Exercise."

Just what is mindfulness, you ask? From the intro worksheet, a brief answer:

Mindfulness means to deliberately pay attention to whatever you are doing, right now. These pages can be read mindfully or with a mind not fully focused and aware that you are reading an article. Everything except sleep can be done mindfully. We can eat mindfully or we can think about past or future event without paying attention to our eating.

Anger Management Manual

A 54-page Anger Management manual here, SAMHSA's "Anger Management--A Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Manual for Substance Abuse and Mental Health Clients." Fifty-four pages! That'll keep you busy (and maybe even help).

Post Flurry

Happy President's Day. Heads up to regulars: I'm about to grab the old "Worksheets on the Web" sidebar listings and give them each their own post. That'll make them accessible, along with all other posts, via Labels. If the links look familiar to you, that'd be why. Enjoy.

Five Misc Therapy Worksheets

At counselingworksheets.com, free samples designed to entice you to purchase their $30/90 worksheet pack. Samples include four worksheets intended for groups: Anger, Feelings, Relapse Prevention, and Step One (of the Twelve Steps). The last is a "Thinking Report Form" which looks--like the others--as if it would work with groups and individuals just fine. It's basically CBT-lite. As ever, let us know how they work if you try 'em. Enjoy.

Self-Help Worksheet Bonanza

Check out the Synergy Institute's long page of forms, worksheets, and assessments tracking, exploring, and quantifying all manner of life problems and solutions, from a Smart Grocery List to a Life Purpose Statement Worksheet to a Life Balance Assessment form. Love them and maybe you'll find yourself subscribing to Self-Improvement Magazine, published by the institute.

(Please remember the disclaimer at right--self-help and therapy are not necessarily the same thing. Need help? There are helpers.)
