But first, if you're like many people, you 4 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,320 Speaker 1: may be surprised to learn that one in five adults 5 00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:15,800 Speaker 1: in this country experienced mental illness last year. You had 6 00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,800 Speaker 1: far too many fail to receive the support they need. Carolyn, 7 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 1: behavioral health is doing something about it. They understand that 8 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: behavioral health is a key part of whole health, delivering 9 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: compassionate care that treats physical, mental, emotional, and social needs 10 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 1: and tandem Carol and behavioral health raising the quality of 11 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 1: life through empathy and action. All right, today's a mental 12 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,160 Speaker 1: health checking and I am in the blue, but i'd 13 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: have worked to get myself with the blue in the region. 14 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 1: Why I've been gone all last week And I was 15 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:48,560 Speaker 1: in New York overacy for Fox for Thanksgiving, which was amazing. 16 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: But it's so easy to get out of your routines 17 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: and folks, listen, my mental health journey here has got 18 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 1: me into all these new unbreakable habits that I do 19 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: in the morning, in the afternoon, I do in the evening, 20 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 1: and I got away from it and as a result 21 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: of that toward the end of last week, I kind 22 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: of lost it a little bit, had a couple of 23 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: meltowns where Rosy unfortunately she was put in a position 24 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,119 Speaker 1: where she had to kind of help settle me down. 25 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: But it's because I got out of those routines. So 26 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,199 Speaker 1: I got back here Sunday Monday morning, got right back 27 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: to my routines. Now, I should have stayed with the 28 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: routines regardless of where I was, And that's something I 29 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 1: now have learned and realize, Hey, I just can't take 30 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: a week off from doing it. It's got to be 31 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 1: in every single day thing that I do to keep 32 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: myself in the blue. I exist in the blue now, 33 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: I don't exist in the gray. The grays there. The 34 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 1: gray still has a spot. I still feel it. I 35 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: still wake up feeling it in a certain way, but 36 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: it's not overwhelming anymore. Now I wake up not expecting 37 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: the sky to fall. I've done so many things to 38 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: now wake up in the blue and just keep the 39 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: gray in a little box if I can, and keep 40 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: it smaller and smaller and smaller, and it still comes 41 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: out obviously, like I said last week, But the more 42 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: I stay in my routine, the more, I'll stay in 43 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: the blue. So for all of you out there, make 44 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: sure even if you don't want to do your routine, 45 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: if you think I'm good right now, no, it's really 46 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: not the case. If we just say I'm good, we 47 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: get out of a routine, we end up getting back 48 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 1: in that gray a little bit too fast. So remember, 49 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: keep those routines coming, make sure it's an everyday thing 50 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: of your life, and then keep building on them and 51 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: learn new things every day. We got to grow, keep growing, growing, growing. 52 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: Cyclop When you go to the gym, you don't just 53 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: try and stay at the same weight. You try to 54 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: increase your weights and you're trying to get better and 55 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: work on those muscles a little bit more. Same thing 56 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: between our ears and behind our ribcage. We got to 57 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,120 Speaker 1: continue to work with those more and more and more. 58 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 1: All right, jag love y'all, let's keep walking this walk together.
