Second Chance to Live

Empowering the Individual, Not the Brain Injury

Choosing Sanity and Learning to Trust Ourselves after a Brain Injury Video Presentation

May 10, 2017 By Second Chance to Live

Choosing Sanity and Learning to Trust Ourselves after a Brain Injury Video Presentation

I recently wrote and published the article, Choosing Sanity and Learning to Trust Ourselves after a Brain Injury. To share the information with individuals who learn through watching and listening, I create video presentations of my articles.

To listen to and watch the video presentation of the article, you may click on this link: Choosing Sanity and Learning to Trust Ourselves after a Brain Injury Video Presentation

In order to read the entire article from which this video presentation is made, you may click on this link: Choosing Sanity and Learning to Trust Ourselves after a Brain Injury

Below is a brief excerpt from the article

“Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” – Albert Einstein

Living with the Impact of a Brain Injury can leave us feeling trapped and limited by the notion that we are our brain injuries. In this notion, we can be lead to believe that we have little power over our lives.

Individuals living with the impact of a brain injury can be led to believe that choosing sanity is out of our reach.

In the process, we can doubt our ability to trust ourselves

But the good news is that we can choose to be sane. But the good news is that we can learn how to trust ourselves.

The good news is that we can choose to be sane, one day at a time. The good news is that we can learn how to trust ourselves a little at a time.

Through my ongoing recovery process, I discovered something that I would like to share with you.

On May 1, 2008, I wrote the below article under the title of Second Chance to Live — Why do I react? Below is a revision of the article.

You have my permission to share my articles and or video presentations with anyone you believe could benefit, however, I maintain ownership of the intellectual property AND my articles, video presentations and eBooks are not to be considered OPEN SOURCE. Please also provide a link back to Second Chance to Live. In the event that you have questions, please send those questions to me. All questions are good questions. I look forward to hearing from you. More Information: Copyright 2007 –2017
