[Rapunzel]

I didn't get to sleep until well after 5:30 a.m. last night, and didn't even hear my alarm clock 2 hours later. I'm sorry. I missed the DBT chat this morning.

Last week we were even talking about balanced sleeping. I've never been good at that.

I had promised we could talk about increasing positive emotions this week, and I wanted to hear about how those in chat last week did with reducing vulnerability to painful emotions. Here is the link to the handout on increasing positive emotions:

Remember, you feel what you feel, but you can feel better when you do more things that help you to feel good. That much you can choose.

That's okay, Rapunzel. I missed you, but I hope you were able to get some sleep.

Thanks for the recap and the positive emotions link. I appreciate all you do for us!! See you next week!

And thanks for this...I really needed to hear it today.

Sleep is good.
