Gentle reminder: You don't need to completely overturn your life to support your mental health.

The small things we practice consistently makes the biggest difference.

Take a moment and ask yourself, "What is something that brings me joy? Peace? Serenity? Helps me to feel calm and relaxed?"

Or perhaps, ask yourself the question, "What is something I used to do that I enjoyed but haven't been doing because life has been too busy?" (we tend to go into self-neglect and self-abandonment when life gets too busy!)

What your answer is -- do this.

Your automatic thought is trying to tell you something. Listen to it. Come up with a plan.

I shared more about this and things I do, as a therapist, to help support my mental and emotional health. Check it out here: https://www.serenitytherapyservices.org/blog/things-therapists-do-for-mental-health

Don't forget to sign up for my weekly emails where I share tips, inspiration, and encouragement!

All the best,

Improving your mental health doesn't usually happen through one big change. And in fact, I would recommend against this. If we make too many changes at once, it can become overwhelming and typically isn't sustainable.

Instead, what I recommend is choosing 1-2 habits to start implementing, giving yourself compassion if you don't get it right away, and keep trying.

Small habits practiced consistently >>> big changes.

Things like spending time outside (hello, spring like weather - we are grateful you are here), slowing down by reminding yourself what is important and what is necessary vs. unnecessary, journaling, and / or connecting with people you trust.

When life gets busy, these are often the first things we stop doing. Taking care of ourselves feels more like a chore and it's the first to go out the window. Which makes sense why we feel more uneasy and stressed... if you're abandoning yourself and your needs -- of course you're going to feel depleted.

The little habits are the things that help us to feel grounded again.

Do yourself a favor and ask yourself the question,

What is something that I used to do, that I enjoyed, that I have been neglecting and/or not taking time for?

Can I do it again? When? How?

Then take the steps to make it happen!

I hope this helps! Let me know if you need help with supporting your mental and emotional health. Now taking new clients for telehealth in Missouri.

The nights you lay awake,

Can’t get your mind to stop.

You know there’s nothing you can do to change what you said earlier that day,

Or make any phone calls,

And deep down you know the other person probably isn’t thinking about it anymore…

But what if.

Your thoughts spiral,
One thing leads to the other,
& next thing you know it’s 2 hours past when you originally laid down to sleep.

It’s FRUSTRATING. It can feel absolutely hopeless at times.

“Why can’t I just stop?”

I get it. Those ruminating thoughts feel heavy and exhausting. Especially when it’s night time, everything is quiet, and you’re desperately just wanting to sleep.

“Just be confident” doesn’t work.

Confidence Grows when You Plant Self-Trust,
Water with Safety,
and Stop Pressuring Yourself to Bloom Overnight.

We’ve been taught that confidence is something you force.

Push harder.
Stop overthinking.
“Just be confident.”

But anxiety doesn’t disappear through pressure.
And confidence doesn’t grow through criticism.

Most of the time, anxiety is your nervous system scanning for danger — not a reflection of your ability.

This month, instead of asking,
“How do I become more confident?”

Try asking,
“How do I help my body feel safer?”

That’s where real growth begins.

Save this for when self-doubt gets loud 🤍

You don't have to force "calm" or have to "think positive."

With the right support, you can learn safety, security, and internal peace & serenity.

Anxiety isn't just racing thoughts or visible panic.

Sometimes, it looks like:
-- enjoying a good moment, but impatiently waiting for it to end, feeling restless
-- replaying conversations hours later, wondering how you sounded or what the other person was thinking
-- worrying you said too much (or not enough)
-- reading into tone, pauses, or silence
-- feeling tense even when nothing is wrong

Often, it's less about fear, and more about trying to stay safe.

Safe from being misunderstood, judged, or criticized.
Safe from disconnection (rejection or abandonment).
Safe from being seen as "too much" or "not enough."

And with the right kind of support, you can learn a new way.
