Spring is a glorious time of the year. There’s nothing like a season where everything is in bloom after harsh winter conditions. You are no exception; it’s also a time for you to blossom. Let’s get to it! 💐

We always talk about the benefits of Spring Cleaning our homes to start the new season with freshness. How about Spring Cleaning our minds? I’ve prepared a guide with tips to help you “take out the trash” mentally and go into the Spring with newness to maximize your blossom.

🧹 Sweep Away the Guilt by:
Write a forgiveness letter to yourself
Talk it out
Stop discounting the positive

🧼 Clean and Purge by:
Donate clothes you aren’t using
Declutter your happy place

🪣 Mop Up Those Racing Thoughts
Journal
Use Mindfulness Exercises
Use Thought Stopping

🧼 Wash Away Comparisons
Take a short break from social media
Make a list of your strengths and what makes you unique

🧽 Soak Up the Light
Go outside every day to absorb Vitamin D from the sun
Practice daily affirmations
Practice meditation

The most important factor in helping your child develop positive mental health? YOU. The number one indicator in all of the literature around childhood mental health is the health of the parent-child relationship. So nurture that relationship, be very present with your children (quality time without being on the phones), nurture your own mental health and well-being so you can be very present with your children, and have nothing about your relationship with your children be conditional on their behavior.

Here are some concrete techniques you can use to foster that strong parent-child relationship and boost your child’s resilience and flexibility.

We have a team of licensed counselors available to assist you at our Ozark, Dothan and Eufaula locations. Call 334-714-6494 or email Susan@archcounseling.org to schedule an appointment.
