National Prescription Drug Take Back Day

Today is a reminder that safe disposal of unused or expired medications helps keep our communities—and our loved ones—safe.

Old prescriptions can be a risk for misuse, accidental ingestion, or harm to the environment if not disposed of properly. Take a few minutes today to clean out your medicine cabinet and drop off unwanted medications at an authorized collection site near you.

Let’s work together to prevent misuse and protect our communities.

In today’s world, our attention is constantly being pulled in every direction—and it’s costing us more than we realize.

EOSIS explores how focus has become our mind’s true superpower in an age of distraction. From endless notifications to multitasking, we’re often busy—but not truly productive. In reality, every interruption fragments our thinking, reduces creativity, and makes it harder to stay present.

The good news? Focus isn’t something you either have or don’t—it’s a skill you can build. By creating space for single-tasking, limiting distractions, and being intentional with your time, you can take back control of your mind.

When we strengthen our focus, we don’t just get more done—we feel more grounded, less stressed, and more connected to what truly matters.

Your attention is powerful. Protect it.

April is Stress Awareness Month

A nationwide effort to shine a light on the impact stress has on our mental and physical health — and the tools we all have to manage it.

Whether it’s taking a mindful moment, reaching out for support, or learning new coping skills, small steps can make a big difference.

Let’s use this month to check in with ourselves, support one another, and build healthier habits that last well beyond April. Resources can be found at https://hubs.li/Q03Tlt3q0.

April is Alcohol Awareness Month — a time to shine a light on the impact alcohol can have on our health, relationships, and communities.

It’s also a reminder that recovery is possible, and support is always within reach. Whether you’re rethinking your relationship with alcohol or helping someone you care about, this month is about awareness, compassion, and connection.

If you or someone you know is struggling, you don’t have to face it alone — help is here. https://hubs.li/Q03SKfmz0

Every day across Minnesota, people walk into treatment carrying fear, shame, and uncertainty, and leave with hope, healing, and a path forward. Recovery happens more often than we hear about, thanks to the dedication of behavioral health professionals who show up every day despite growing challenges.

While recent reports of fraud in publicly funded programs deserve attention and accountability, they don’t tell the whole story. Many organizations are delivering ethical, evidence-based care and changing lives in meaningful ways.

If we want stronger behavioral health systems, we can’t just focus on what’s broken—we also need to recognize, support, and invest in what’s working. Recovery is real, and it’s happening every day.

Are you really living your best life, or just chasing quick wins?

In this article Tim Walsh, MA, LP, DPA, Executive Director of Beauterre at EOSIS, challenges the idea that happiness comes from instant gratification.

Instead, true life satisfaction comes from deeper, long-term investments—like meaningful relationships, purpose, personal growth, and overall well-being. Research shows that strong connections with others are the biggest driver of a healthy, fulfilling life.

The takeaway? A “good life” isn’t about constant highs—it’s about living with intention, embracing challenges, and building something meaningful over time.

Sometimes “pretty good” is actually a sign you’re doing life right. Read the full article here - https://hubs.li/Q047B1BZ0
