Do You Make a Catastrophe Over Everything?

Catastrophizing is expecting the worst to happen when faced with a problem. It is an irrational thought wherein you make a catastrophe out of the current or future situation. Here I discuss why we do it and what we can do to address it. Oftentimes expecting the worst does not prepare you for the worst. Expecting the worst thing to happen, invites the worst to happen.

I forgot to include in the video. Another reason we engage in catastrophizing is because we think it motivates us. We use fear of the worst to motivate us, but this is actually not a sustainable form of motivation, and is counterproductive and can make us demotivated if we believe that the worst is bound to happen anyway - so why bother.

Do You Think in Black & White? And How it's Ruining Your Relationships

Black and white ka ba magisip? Yung tipong pang pinoy telenovelas na laging sobrang sama ng kontrabida, tapos sobrang bait nung bida? Or kapag may comment kang narinig sa pulitika, reply mo agad is either DDS or Dilawan yung kausap mo. Yung hirap kang tanggapin na Pinoy ako pero ayoko ng adobo. Char lang 🤣🤣🤣

Seriously though, black and white thinking damages our way of thinking, and ruins our relationship with other people, here's how to address it.
Black and white thinking or splitting in psychology is thinking in extremes and labeling the problem, person, or situation as either terrible or perfect, good or evil, etc.

Highlighted here are (1) Negative Effects of Black and White Thinking, (2) Why We Engage in Black & White Thinking, and (3) How to Challenge our Black and White Thought Patterns

How I Deal with Stress (Self Care Tips)

Experiencing stress varies per person, hence the first aid for stress varies per person too. We call this first aid to stress as self care. Every adult should have a self care plan or self care routine for himself or herself to avoid mental breakdown.

Here is my self care routine and also my guide in assessing my lifestyle so I could put in little improvements.

Hindi kailangang may mali sayo bago ka pumunta sa therapist. Walang maling oras o dahilan para dito.

Pero kung matigas ka talaga basha at popoy, at least aralin mo yung first aid para sa burnout o stress mo. Walang matigas na pandesal sa mainit na kape 😅

Love,
Tita A

Biking to Work in Metro Manila

I used to ride Grab or Angkas to work, but it was expensive, while riding jeepneys or MRT was too exhausting and time consuming.

I had an officemate who bikes to work from Rizal to Makati (~20km) so I was amazed and thought, oh maybe I can do it too since I live a lot nearer to the office. But problem was I didn't know how to ride a bike. It was embarrassing for me as an adult to be learning how to ride a bike for the first time but I tried and practiced anyway.

And now I've been biking to work for almost 1 year :) Here's how I did it, and some tips for safe bike commuting in Metro Manila. See you on the road!
