Summary

Is it truly better to stay up until all hours of the morning while reaching the depths of sleep deprivation to "work things out" with your spouse, or should you just go to bed and talk in the morning? Is it always wise to save every penny? Tony looks at modern-day "proverbs" from both sides of the coin.

0:00.0	Hey, everybody, come on and take a seat on the virtual couch.
0:24.6	Hey everybody, welcome to episode 337 of the virtual couch.
0:25.7	I am your host, Tony Overbay.
0:36.3	I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist, certified mindful habit coach, writer, speaker, husband, father of four, and host also of waking up to narcissism, which is a podcast that is just growing by leaps and bounds.
0:38.3	So if you haven't checked out an episode,
0:43.2	I highly recommend you go look at the one. I had my associate professional clinical counselor friend Nate Christensen on. And we talked about self-care. And self-care is such a buzzword.
0:47.9	So we go into literally, what does that mean? And we're not just talking about getting your nails done,
0:52.6	going to the gym, taking a bath,
0:59.6	going on a run, petting a dog. We talk about all areas of what self-care really looks like,

1:29.0	happening there. I specifically say online pornography recovery program because we're not talking
1:33.9	about the heaviness or the weight of calling everything in addiction. I really believe it's an
1:38.6	unhealthy coping mechanism. We have so many unhealthy coping mechanisms that we turn to when we don't
1:43.7	feel connected in a few different areas of our lives to when we don't feel connected in a few
1:44.9	different areas of our lives.
1:45.8	If we aren't feeling connected in our marriage or as a parent or maybe in our faith or in our
1:50.7	health and our career that we tend to turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms.
1:55.3	And then, of course, that's going to be the last time, the last time that someone ever looks
