Needing support is human.

Life asks a lot of us, and no one is meant to carry everything alone.
Reaching out doesn’t mean something is wrong , it means you’re responding to what you need.

Emotions are information.

In Emotion-Focused work, emotions aren’t something to get rid of — they help us understand what matters, what we need, and how we’re wired for connection.
When emotions are met with curiosity and care, they often become easier to hold and respond to.

Take a 10-second pause.

Before the day keeps moving, pause for just a moment.
Notice one thing you can feel in your body or one thing you can see around you.
Even brief pauses can help your nervous system reset and create a little more steadiness.

How are you really today?

You don’t have to have a clear answer.
Noticing how you feel — without fixing it — is often enough to begin settling the nervous system.

Safety changes everything.

When we feel emotionally safe, our nervous systems can soften and our emotions become easier to understand.
Healing doesn’t require pushing harder — it often begins with feeling supported, seen, and responded to.

If you’re curious about how relational and trauma-informed therapy can support emotional safety, you can learn more or schedule an appointment at www.risetherapy.net

Emotions want response, not suppression.

Emotions aren’t problems to solve — they’re signals asking for understanding and care.
When feelings are met with responsiveness and safety, they often soften on their own.

Supportive relationships play a powerful role in helping our nervous systems regulate and our emotional experiences feel more manageable.

Come back to your body

If your mind feels busy or your body feels tense, grounding can help bring you back to the present moment.

Try this now:
• Feel your feet on the floor
• Notice one thing you can see, hear, and touch
• Take one slow breath, longer on the exhale

You don’t need to feel calm, just a little more here.

If you’d like support with grounding, regulation, or stress, you can learn more about our approach and services at www.risetherapy.net

Healing happens in connection.

Being seen, understood, and responded to with care can be deeply regulating.
Connection helps us feel safer, steadier, and less alone — especially when things feel heavy or uncertain.
You don’t have to do everything on your own. Support is part of being human.

This week might feel like a lot.

Between the weather, the news, and everyday responsibilities, it’s understandable if things feel heavier right now.
When multiple stressors stack up, the nervous system notices — even if you’re doing “everything right.”

You don’t need to power through this season alone.
Support, connection, and slowing down can be stabilizing.

When it’s this cold, your body notices.

Extreme cold can activate the nervous system and heighten stress responses.
Your body may be working harder to stay regulated — which can show up as fatigue, tension, irritability, or brain fog.

This isn’t a lack of resilience. It’s your system responding to the environment.
Extra warmth, slower pacing, and self-compassion are supportive right now.
