I found this video to be so spot on! These were a smattering of vexing tendencies that I just chalked up to my spaced=out self, and I suddenly understood it differently when this therapist connected the dots.
An enjoyable (and a little unsettling!) piece about the humble Kleenex tissue, so integral a part of therapy sessions everywhere. You might rethink how you wipe your tears!
