🌼 Did you know? Connected Health Therapies partners with Easy K Ranch to provide mental health services to individuals with disabilities and behavioral health needs. One of the best parts of my job is creating meaningful, hands-on activities that support emotional growth and connection for those I serve. 💛

🌿 Finding Calm Through Imagery 🌿

In group this week, we explored the power of resource imagery — choosing and focusing on pictures that bring a sense of peace, joy, or safety. 🧠✨

This practice helps train the brain to move from stress to calm by engaging the body’s natural relaxation response. Residents selected images that reflected their favorite places, animals, and calming scenes, then created posters to use as personal “resource boards” for grounding and emotional regulation.

Using a blend of DBT and person-centered approaches, we focused on mindfulness, choice, and self-expression — reminding ourselves that even small, intentional moments of calm can make a big difference. 🌈

When expertise meets genuine care, the results speak for themselves. 🙌🏼

This client traveled from Texas and found lasting relief after years of pain thanks to Dr. Jones’s expert approach to dry needling & care. 💉
It’s not just about the treatment, it’s about how it’s delivered and knowing what else might be going on in the body.

Dr. Jones takes the time to search for the root cause, going beyond just the trigger point to assess other parts of the body that may be referring pain. 🧠🔍 Choosing the right provider can make all the difference. Give us a call or text at 870-613-3641 to get a session scheduled!

If your brain had a reality show…🎥

The Brain Bunch: Keeping Up with Your Neurotransmitters

🍾🥳 Dopamine: “We’re celebrating EVERYTHING today!”
🛋☕️ Serotonin: “Calm down, Karen. Have some tea.”
🚨🎭 Norepinephrine: “Did someone say STRESS? I’m here for the drama!”
🧘🏼‍♂️🌱 GABA: “Everyone breathe. Seriously… BREATHE.”
📖💡 Glutamate: “A million ideas & no breaks. Let’s overthink EVERYTHING.”
❤️🫶🏼 Oxytocin: “Group hug or I riot.”

Your brain is the most chaotic group chat you never asked for. 💬

✨ It’s okay to say NO. It’s okay to take a break. It’s okay to rest. Pushing through every time your body whispers “slow down” doesn’t make you stronger, it makes you depleted.

When you honor your limits, you’re doing something powerful and backed by science:
🧠 Your mind resets – Rest lowers stress hormones, improves memory, and restores focus.
💪🏽 Your body repairs – Breaks allow muscles, joints, and your nervous system to recover.
🌱 Your resilience grows – Instead of running on empty, you recharge and show up at your best.

Saying “no” isn’t weakness. Taking a pause isn’t laziness.
It’s self-preservation. It’s nervous system regulation. It’s an investment in your future energy.

💡 Listen to your body. Protect your energy. Rest is productive.
