A message from our psychologist and DBT Skills Group facilitator India Cuttilan:

One thing I like about DBT is how it has a really practical solution for so many issues! If I’m feeling a bit down and want to do something to help but aren’t sure what, I can look at my pleasant events list which has so many suggestions and pick one thing to do or one that I want to work towards. For example, most recently this has been ‘planning a vacation’. I find that doing an activity that I enjoy or that is important to me can help improve my mood, especially when I combine the activity with being mindful, by giving all my attention to it and being present in each moment.
