SOCIAL MEDIA
We at the Center for the Obsessive Mind pride ourselves on being both mental health professionals and advocates. In their advocacy work, our staff therapists spread awareness and fight mental health stigma on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. Our social media platforms are dedicated to open, honest discussion of OCD, Anxiety, Eating Disorders as well as other mental health struggles.
The Center for the Obsessive Mind offers educational content for those with OCD, Anxiety and Eating Disorder advocacy work on Instagram. You can check out our Instagram page, where we provide memes, education, and more. Instagram also hosts a lot of our video content. In fact, if you’re on Instagram you can participate in the recording of Purely OCD, the Instagram Live and Podcast series our Director, Lauren Rosen, LMFT, co-hosts with Kelley Franke, LMFT. You can learn more about Purely OCD here.
The present moment is made up of all of our sensory experiences. Whatever you smell, see, here, taste and physically feel is the essence of the here and now.
We can always take refuge in our awareness of our sensory experiences. When we are overwhelmed by possibilities, uncertainties and thinking, we can reorient toward being and noticing. We can be connected to the sound of the cars driving by or the wind in the trees. We can bring our awareness to the feel of our feet in our shoes or the sensation of the shirt against our arms.
By being here, we can find moments of respite and peace in the face of the unknown.

Hello wonderful humans!! I know I haven`t been as active on here recently. But I promise, it`s with good reason.
I`ll be speaking more in the coming weeks about some exciting news on the horizon. In the meantime, I`m thrilled to share that I have the honor of presenting tomorrow with @sheppardpratt on OCD and co-occurring Substance Use Disorder. This is a free course with continuing education credit. I hope to see you there!
You can sign up for the live workshop at sheppardpratt.org under "browse courses" and "live courses."
I have really missed this community and am looking forward to being back in these parts more often.

💭✨ Embrace your whole self – thoughts, feelings, and all! Allow all of your experiences to be present without fighting them allows you to get back to what matters most to you.
You see, you can bring every part of you along for the ride. You can have thoughts about death while being present to what matters most to you. You can feel fear while being of service to someone else.
You don`t need to get rid of your thoughts and feelings, and trying to do so is incredibly ineffective. If you try to get rid of those thoughts about death that will interfere with your ability to be present. If you try to get rid of your fear, you might not have as much time or energy to help others.
Ultimately, changing behaviors doesn’t involve erasing any part of you; it’s just about aligning your actions with your values.
Take a moment to make space for all of your thoughts and feelings today. Share in the comments how you’re choosing to embrace all of yourself! 🌱💪

Guilt isn’t inherently meaningful, just as no emotion, unto itself, means something. Emotions are indicators. “Look over here” they say. But if you look over and see nothing then continuing to let them drive your actions doesn’t make sense.
Still, not responding can be so challenging. Hats off to all of you out there who made the choice to do nothing in the face of unsubstantiated emotions today 🙌🏼
