Thinking errors that add to stress

Catastrophizing

Exaggerating how bad something is, and thinking that you can't possibly survive it.

All-or-none thinking

The belief that if you're not perfect, you're worthless. Find the middle ground.

Mind reading

Thinking you know what someone else is thinking or what their intentions are. Ask them. You could be wrong.

Probability overestimation

Believing something is going to happen when it's actually very unlikely.

Healthy Teeth Tips
  • Avoid sweets! Too much sugar can cause cavities, yellowing of the teeth and other problems. Plus, more than an occasional indulgence is bad for you anyway. Pass on the sweets.

  • Brush morning and night. The dentist tells you to do it for a reason! It's important to scrub those chompers once in the morning and once again before bed.

  • Don't smoke! We understand this is a tough one for many of us, but it's important for your teeth and important for your body. It can be tough to quit, but the rewards are well worth it.

  • Try to minimize coffee consumption. We're not telling you to kick your daily cup of coffee--just advising that you might want to reconsider cups 3, 4 and 5. For your teeth's sake.

  • Floss! Often times small pieces of food are trapped between your teeth and manage to evade the truth brush. Pick these off with some good dental floss.
