The holidays are rapidly approaching and I keep thinking of how complicated this time of year is for some folx (myself included).

If you were grieving this time of year or struggling with the lack of sunlight, we're here to help.

And if you need a little support around the word "no", we are hosting a boundaries workshop this coming Saturday. Each out to groups@ancorawellness.com to sign up

Kindness heals.

Every small act — a smile, a kind word, a moment of listening — can lift mood, ease anxiety, and strengthen connection. Science shows that kindness supports mental health by boosting serotonin and reducing stress.

At Ancora Wellness, we believe in care that starts with compassion — for others and for yourself.

In November, we honor Premature Baby Month (and two of our favorite preemies in particular) and the strength, resilience, and love that define families navigating early arrivals. At Ancora, we recognize the emotional, physical, and financial challenges that come with premature birth, and we stand with parents, caregivers, and the tiny fighters who show us what courage looks like.

Let’s raise awareness, support access to care, and build community around the families who need it most.

Our Men’s Group begins in just one week — facilitated by Abby Feinstein, MFT associate, and designed to help men connect, reflect, and grow in a supportive, judgment-free space.

This group offers a place to explore identity, relationships, emotional wellness, and communication through an integrative, trauma-informed lens. Together, participants learn tools for self-awareness, stress management, and authentic connection.

Join us for a workshop focused on boundaries and the upcoming holiday season.

Because 'tis the season to say no.

Perfect for if you struggle with people pleasing tendencies or the pressure of "making the magic" during the holidays.

Leave with a few more tools in your tool belt for setting holiday boundaries, as well as a candle (decorated by you!) to remind you that you burn brighter when you're taking care of yourself.

Facilitated by our resident art therapist associate, Shannon Garcia.

Happy Birthday to the founder of Ancora Wellness, Kara Kazemba!

Kara will celebrating her day running with friends and then enjoying a giant cheeseburger. (And then probably taking a nap.)

We’re so grateful for the community you’ve built and the lives you continue to touch every day. Here’s to another year of inspiring wellness and connection!
