💭 Ever snapped at someone you care about, only to regret it later? Or felt anxious in a conversation and wished you could show up differently?

Moments like these aren’t signs that you’re “bad” at handling emotions — they’re chances to practice emotional intelligence (EQ).

EQ is the gentle skill of noticing emotions, understanding where they come from, and choosing how to respond in a way that brings more ease and connection.

✨ In our latest blog, we share four supportive skills — self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, and relationship management — and simple ways to begin practicing them.

💙 What if you could have more tools to support someone who is struggling with their mental health?

That’s what Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is all about. Just like CPR helps in a medical emergency, MHFA gives you the tools to support someone facing a mental health challenge until professional help is available.
At the heart of MHFA is the ALGES framework:

A – Approach & assess risk
L – Listen non-judgmentally
G – Give reassurance & information
E – Encourage professional help
S – Support self-care

🌿 Interested in building your mental health skills?

Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training is available through Opening Minds, helping individuals and organizations learn how to recognize and respond to signs of mental health challenges.

Ever finish a tough project, cook from scratch, or even get through tax season… and feel energized instead of drained?

That’s called learned industriousness. 🧠

When effort = reward, your brain starts craving the process itself. The more you practice, the more motivating hard work becomes.

👉 Start small: pick challenges that are tough but doable, and celebrate progress.

😵‍💫 Ever shut down mid-conversation or felt overwhelmed for no clear reason?

That might be emotional flooding, a state of intense emotional overwhelm that makes it difficult to think clearly or respond rationally.

It’s not you overreacting. It’s your body protecting you.
