This New Year, let’s make space for mental health in our resolutions. 💛
So often, New Year’s resolutions focus on fixing ourselves — losing weight, being more productive, doing more. But what if this year, your resolutions centered on caring for yourself instead?
Maybe that looks like:
✨ Prioritizing rest
✨ Setting healthier boundaries
✨ Reaching out when things feel overwhelming
✨ Giving yourself grace on hard days
Your mental health matters just as much as any other goal you set.
📞Call 24/7 208-788-3596 or the National Line Call/Text "988"— you’re never alone, and support is just a moment away.

Este Año Nuevo, hagamos espacio para la salud mental en nuestras resoluciones. 💛
Con frecuencia, los propósitos de Año Nuevo se enfocan en “arreglarnos” — bajar de peso, ser más productivos, hacer más. Pero ¿y si este año tus resoluciones se centraran en cuidarte?
Tal vez eso significa:
✨ Priorizar el descanso
✨ Establecer límites más saludables
✨ Pedir ayuda cuando te sientas abrumado/a
✨ Tratarte con más compasión en los días difíciles
Tu salud mental es tan importante como cualquier otra meta que te propongas.
📞Llama 24/7 al 208-788-3596 o a la Línea Nacional llamando/enviar un texto al “988” — nunca/ estás solo/a y el apoyo está a solo un momento de distancia.

✨ Holiday Mental Health Recipe ✨🧠
Serves: You (and anyone who needs a little extra care this season)
Prep Time: Ongoing
Difficulty: Be gentle with yourself
🧺 Ingredients
• 2 cups of realistic expectations
• 1 generous scoop of rest
• A pinch of boundaries
• 3 tablespoons of self-compassion
• A handful of connection (friends, chosen family, community)
• Optional: movement, fresh air, journaling, or creativity
• Emergency substitute: reaching out for support
🥣 Instructions
1. Lower the heat on perfection.
Holidays don’t have to look a certain way to be meaningful. Good enough is more than enough.
2. Stir in rest wherever you can.
Short naps, quiet moments, or stepping outside for a few breaths all count.
3. Season with boundaries.
It’s okay to say no, leave early, or protect your energy—even with people you love.
4. Fold in connection slowly.
Reach out to someone you trust, attend a community event, or check in with yourself.
5. Taste and adjust with self-compassion.
Some days will feel heavier than others. That doesn’t mean you’re doing anything wrong.
6. If things feel overwhelming, don’t cook alone.
Support is always an option

✨ National Day of Neutrality ✨
Today is a reminder of the power of pausing, listening, and holding space without judgment. In a world full of strong opinions and constant noise, choosing neutrality can be an act of compassion.
Neutrality doesn’t mean indifference — it means creating room for understanding, clarity, and calm. It allows us to support others without pressure, assumptions, or taking sides.
Whether you’re mediating a conflict, supporting a friend, or simply navigating your own emotions, taking a neutral stance can open the door to healthier conversations and deeper connection. 💛
And remember: if you or someone you know is struggling or overwhelmed, The Crisis Hotline is here 24/7.
📞 Call 24/7 208-788-3596 or the National Line Call/Text "988"— you’re never alone, and support is just a moment away.
Let’s use today to slow down, listen with empathy, and lead with kindness. 🌿

🌨️ December is Seasonal Affective Disorder Awareness Month 🌨️
Shorter days and colder weather can make this time of year feel heavier than usual. If you’ve noticed your energy dipping, your mood shifting, or everyday tasks feeling harder, you’re not alone. Seasonal Affective Disorder is a real and common mental health challenge — and it’s okay to ask for help.
✨ What can help?
• Getting outside for brief daylight
• Light therapy or warmth from cozy spaces
• Moving your body at your own pace
• Reaching out to someone you trust
• Naming how you’re feeling — even when it’s hard
Most importantly: you don’t have to navigate this season alone.
If you or someone you love needs support, someone is always ready to listen.
📞 Call 24/7 208-788-3596 or the National Line Call/Text "988"
You’ll reach trained crisis counselors who are here to help, day or night.
Let’s check in on one another, normalize these feelings, and remind our community that support is always within reach. 💙

Finding Balance This Holiday Season

The holidays can bring joy—but also stress, pressure, or loneliness. It’s okay to feel all of it. Here are a few ways to stay grounded and emotionally safe this season

1. Set realistic expectations – Focus on what truly matters: connection, kindness, and meaning.
2. Acknowledge your feelings – It’s okay to not feel okay. You’re not alone.
3. Keep healthy routines – Rest, move, and nourish yourself.
4. Plan for emotional safety – Know your limits and have a support plan if things get tense.
5. Give back or reach out – Acts of kindness help everyone heal, including you.

If the holidays feel heavy, reach out.

🦃 Thanksgiving & Mental Health 💛

The holidays can be a beautiful time of connection, gratitude, and tradition… but they can also be stressful, emotional, or overwhelming. And that’s okay.

Whether you’re navigating family dynamics, missing someone you love, working through financial stress, or feeling pressure to be “cheerful” — your feelings are valid.

This Thanksgiving, let’s remember:

✨ Gratitude and grief can coexist
✨ It’s okay to set boundaries
✨ Rest is productive
✨ You deserve compassion — especially from yourself

If you or someone you know needs support, reaching out is an act of courage. A five-minute check-in could make all the difference for someone who feels alone.

We’re grateful for you. You matter. 💛
Wishing everyone a safe and gentle holiday.
