The concept of “control” is something that will come up a lot in the life of an individual with a borderline personality disorder. I know it comes up a lot in my life.
On of the first steps to mental health is gaining control over your body. The first way to do that is to get exercise!! Select the type of exercise you want to get, and start gaining control over your body. As you build muscles, strengthen your heart, lose a little weight, you’ll start feeling more control over your body. And having a positive control over your body is a great step to overall health.
Today’s Challenge: Pick an exercise activity and do it. Even if it’s only for 2 minutes. Move your body and be mindful of how the movement feels.
Journal Exercise: Exercise every day for 7 days straight. Journal about how your body feels, and how your mind is responding to this exercise.
