🍁 The holidays bring joy… and sometimes unsolicited opinions from Uncle Whoever 😂🦃

If you’re expecting the “So, when are you…?” questions this week, here’s your reminder:
You don’t have to justify your body, your choices, your timeline, or your journey. 💛💁‍♀️

Questions we’re NOT answering this holiday season:
❌ “Have you gained weight?” 😣
❌ “When are you getting married?” 🙄
❌ “Don’t you want kids someday?” 😒
❌ “Why aren’t you back in school?” 🥱
❌ “Your cousin had no problem with it!” 😤

What we ARE doing:
✨ Protecting our peace 🧘🛡️
✨ Changing the subject 💬
✨ Planning ahead and taking space when needed 🚗 🏡
✨ Reminding ourselves that our life is NOT up for commentary 🗣️ 🫷
✨ Focusing on people who feel safe and supportive ❄️🕯️

For those suffering with an eating disorder, navigating food-centered holidays and special occasions can bring times of intense anxiety, dread, and even shame. With Thanksgiving just one week away, our neighbor (literally!) and experienced eating disorder specialist Keena Reddin-Kennedy, LCSW, founder of Center for Eating Disorders and Behavioral Wellness, is sharing some gentle reminders we love 🧡👇

✨ Focus on loved ones and meaning of the holiday
✨ Set healthy boundaries
✨ Slow down & stay mindful
✨ Give yourself permission to enjoy the holiday AND the food

We’re grateful to be surrounded by clinicians doing such meaningful work. 🤝 Thanks for these great tips, Keena!

Ever notice how the world looks exactly the same before and after you make a mistake?
That’s because our anxious brains love to catastrophize — a cognitive distortion where a small worry snowballs into a giant “what if…?!” avalanche. 🧠❄️😱

Catastrophizing sounds like:
💭 “What if everything goes wrong?”
💭 “What if this ruins everything?”
💭 “What if I can’t handle it?”

But here’s the truth:
👉 Most fears are thoughts, not facts.
👉 Your brain is trying to protect you, not punish you.
👉 Mistakes rarely change the whole world — even if anxiety tries to convince you otherwise. 🌍💛

Try this gentle reframe:
✨ “What if this works out?”
✨ “What if I can handle more than I think?”
✨ “What if this is just a moment, not a disaster?”

Your world is still turning.
You’re still growing.
You’re doing so much better than your anxious mind gives you credit for. 🌱💛

✨Grief doesn’t take the holidays off — and with Thanksgiving around the corner, it’s okay if this season feels heavier than usual.✨

Whether you’re missing someone, navigating mixed emotions, or just trying to make it through the week, your feelings are valid. 💛

You’re allowed to set boundaries.
You’re allowed to talk about your grief.
You’re allowed to celebrate and hurt at the same time.

If you need support, connection, or just a safe place to breathe, we’re here for you. 🧡
You don’t have to carry it alone.

✨ Happy World Kindness Day! ✨

Today is a reminder that kindness doesn’t have to be loud or perfect — just genuine. A small moment of care can shift someone’s entire day (including your own).

Here are 5 simple ways to show kindness — to others and to yourself:

💛 1. Offer a gentle word.
A sincere “I’m glad you’re here” can mean more than you know.

💛 2. Practice patience.
Whether it’s giving someone (or yourself) a moment to breathe, patience is kindness.

💛 3. Set healthy boundaries.
Protecting your energy is a loving act — not just for you, but for the people around you.

💛 4. Do one small helpful thing.
Hold the door, send a supportive text, leave a kind note… small doesn’t mean insignificant.

💛 5. Speak to yourself kindly.
Replace one self-criticism with compassion. You deserve the gentleness you give to others.

Kindness creates connection. It softens edges. It reminds us we’re in this together.
Today and every day, choose kindness. 💕

The world feels heavy for so many right now. If you’re feeling that too, take a slow breath.
You don’t have to have all the answers, or even the words.

There’s still goodness here — in kindness, in care, in showing up for one another.
Hold on to the small lights. They still matter. 💛✨

And as always, don’t hesitate to reach out to us here at Courage Counseling. You’re not alone. 🫶
