The holidays can be joyful… and they can also be overwhelming. If you’re feeling stressed, stretched thin, or simply not as cheerful as the season suggests, you’re not alone. Many people experience mixed emotions this time of year. Here are a few gentle reminders:
It’s okay to set boundaries.
It’s okay to rest.
It’s okay if this season feels different than expected.

Our practice is here to support you through every season. If you need someone to talk to, we're here for you. Reach out today.

Did you know that most emotional waves last 90 seconds?

If you can pause and breathe through it, the intensity often decreases on its own. Try sitting with the feeling for a moment rather than fighting it. You may notice it passes quicker than expected.

🌎💛 Today is World Kindness Day! 💛🌎

“Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about.” — Wendy Mass

Kindness is one of the most powerful forms of connection and healing. Whether it’s offering a smile, lending a listening ear, or showing compassion toward yourself and others, small acts of kindness can make a big difference.

Kindness is contagious. When we choose to lead with empathy, we help create a stronger, more compassionate community. 💚
