Therapy Deep Dive: A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood and Positive Psychology
Added 2023-04-12 15:00:05 +0000 UTCLicensed therapist Jonathan Decker shares a deep dive on A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood and positive psychology. The phrase gets misused a lot, so we’re here to clarify that through the wonderful Mr. Rogers. His show tackled serious topics and taught children to process emotions in a healthy way. A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood is based on a true story between Mr. Rogers and a struggling journalist, Lloyd, who benefits from the friendship of Mr. Rogers and positive psychology. If you look up “wholesome” in the dictionary, he’d be there!

We did a Deep Dive on it because it wouldn't perform well on the channel. But we loved it and wanted to talk about it just for Patrons. :)

2023-04-14 01:12:18 +0000 UTCAs a 90s kid, Mister Rodger's (syndicated PBS episodes) was my asbolute favorite as a kid with anger outbursts. I pretended to hate it in middle school but totally owned it in HS and beyond. I was devestated when they took it off the air. Thank you for doing this Jono!

2023-04-12 16:09:36 +0000 UTC"What is grief if not love persevering?" I bet your mom laughed partly in relief for you "merely" mourning the loss of Mr. Rogers and the light he cast on the world. We do need so much more of Mr. Rogers. 💗 That's such a lovely memory, thanks for sharing 🥰

2023-04-12 15:50:16 +0000 UTCIt was my favorite show growing up. A couple years ago I was crying really hard just becuase I missed him. And having the thought the world needs more Mr. Rogers in it. My mom saw me and thought something was seriously wrong. Through my tears I choked out that i missed mr. Rogers. She started laughing. As i look back at it it makes me laugh.
