Best wishes that everyone is getting what they need from today.

Here's a gentle reminder that someone made all the things happen: the coordination, the plans, the food, the gifts, the cleaning before and after.

Here is to the magic makers, the real life Santa's!

We see you!

The holidays can be emotionally complex. Alongside moments of joy, they can also bring stress, pressure, grief, and exhaustion. If this season feels heavier than usual, you’re not doing anything wrong.

Noticing when you need extra support is an act of awareness and care. Therapy can help you navigate overwhelming emotions and set boundaries during a busy season.

When sunlight becomes scarce, our mood, sleep, and energy can take a hit. Light therapy (also known as phototherapy) is one of the most effective treatments for SAD.

Using a 10,000-lux light box for about 20–30 minutes in the morning can help:
✨ regulate your circadian rhythm
✨ boost serotonin
✨ increase energy
✨ reduce depressive symptoms

If you’re considering trying light therapy, it’s helpful to talk with a healthcare provider or therapist to make sure it’s the right fit for you.

Healing isn’t a place you suddenly arrive at; it’s something you practice every day.

Some days feel steady, some feel bumpy, and others might require you to slow down and pull over for a moment. And that’s okay.
