Today I had the pleasure of returning to my alma mater, The Holton-Arms School, to speak at their high school mental health assembly and answer questions about finding balance and maintaining mental health. Totally impressed by these smart, kind, driven girls who are making sure to prioritize wellness at their school.💙

The world is a crazy place and it’s easy to get overwhelmed. Sometimes the best next step is a small one, and a little self-compassion can go a long way.

🍂Fall is a busy time for most families, and busy can turn into rushing, stressing, and getting by on survival mode. We go from one activity to the next and then fast forward mentally to start planning the holidays, dreading the long winter, longing for warm weather,… PAUSE right there!!
‼️Slow down…
👋This is your reminder to take brief moments in your day to just notice the here and now.
👉If the now is stressful, what would make it one degree more joyful? (Put down the phone? Relax your body? Take a breath? Listen to soft music?)
👉If the now is joyful, what is one way to be more present and savor it? (Put down the phone? Say out loud what you’re grateful for? Notice your physical sensations?)
🙌You really don’t have to make extra time for self-care when life is busy! Practicing these small moments of mindfulness during activities you’re already doing is GREAT self-care, it truly adds up to being more calm and present!!✨🙏

Managing symptoms versus healing the root cause of the symptoms …. like comparing taking a pain reliever to corrective surgery: both serve a purpose, both are important for our wellbeing and functioning if and when needed! The important thing is to understand if the way you are coping is constant management of chronic symptoms- might be time for some deeper healing work❤️‍🩹

Personal growth can be messy and tough… but sometimes you can make it fun🤗 I decided that to push myself outside my comfort zone and motivate myself to exercise, I’d sign up for a 5k mud run🤪 I needed to “walk the walk” as I’m always telling my clients to move more, to look for ways to embrace challenges, to bring in friends because social connection makes us more motivated and brings more joy… the result? My TSG colleague Sam Kreindler and I had a BLAST doing this race together and I feel so empowered to keep on running💪

The more you understand the symptoms in your body, the more you can heal✨

Naming our feelings is how we regulate and process them. Naming feelings for others offers co-regulation. Practice noticing, naming, and expressing feelings - for yourself and your loved ones ❤️
