Supportiv, the peer-to-peer network for mental, emotional, and social support, releases a new collection of articles and resources to help individuals break the bad habits that work against their wellbeing.
BERKELEY, Calif., Nov. 29, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Supportiv, the pioneer in Conversational Care® and Precision Peer Support®, publishes today a new collection of self-help resources, outlining the "bad" habits that fail to serve one's mental wellbeing, and providing tools for replacing those habits with more productive ones.
Habits form the basis of wellbeing. Mindfulness habits, relational habits, sleeping habits, coping habits, and self care habits all contribute to how an individual feels on a daily basis. Unfortunately, making changes in these areas can be some of the biggest emotional challenges a person can attempt. This struggle keeps many people stuck in behaviors and situations that work against them.
In order to be broken, "bad" habits must be replaced with more positive ones – and Supportiv's new resource collection aims to provide alternative options and tactics to swap "bad" behaviors for behaviors that better serve wellbeing.
Supportiv CEO and Co-Founder Helena Plater-Zyberk elaborates on the intention of this new resource collection: "Calling any behavior a 'bad habit' deserves clarification. It's a quick jump to feeling a person's bad habits make them bad at their core. People tend to judge themselves and others for bad habits; however, these articles and worksheets clearly separate the person from the behavior that could be hurting them."
Pouria Mojabi, Supportiv Co-Founder, continues the thought: "Bad habits are bad because they feel bad to the individual; because they make one's life harder; or because they keep a person from being who they want to be. Having these habits shouldn't merit criticism from others, but might merit some practical, tactical strategy if the affected individual decides to make a change."
