Journaling is more than writing - it’s a way to slow down, process emotions, and make sense of your inner world. 🌎 Research shows it can reduce stress, improve emotional awareness, and support mental clarity. Whether it’s a few sentences or a full page, consistency matters more than perfection. Who’s taking journaling into 2026?

When we release the expectation of perfection, we make room for real connection. Accepting people as they are - including ourselves - allows relationships to feel safer, more honest, and more meaningful. Growth doesn’t come from perfection; it comes from compassion.

When someone opens up about their mental health, listening matters. Try RASA: Receive without interrupting, Appreciate their courage, Summarize what you heard, and Ask open-ended questions. Feeling heard can be incredibly healing.

When should you start talking to your child about mental health? 🤔 As early as ages 3–5. Experts agree that age-appropriate conversations can begin in early childhood by simply naming emotions (“You look sad,” “That was frustrating”), normalizing feelings, and modeling healthy coping skills. These early moments lay the foundation for emotional awareness and resilience. As children grow, open and ongoing conversations help them feel safe asking questions, expressing big feelings, and seeking support when they need it. You don’t need to have all the answers - being present, curious, and willing to listen matters most!

Blue Monday isn’t real - but feeling low in January can be. The idea of “Blue Monday” was created as a marketing concept, not a scientific fact. Mental health struggles can’t be reduced to one specific day, and they certainly can’t be fixed by a purchase. That said, many people do feel lower in January for very real reasons. Shorter daylight hours, colder weather, disrupted routines, financial stress after the holidays, and the emotional crash after a busy season can all impact mood and energy levels. Mental health doesn’t follow a calendar. You deserve support whenever you need it - not just on a trending date. 💙

Some days it really does feel like everything is working against you. Deep breaths, movement, and grounding can help in the moment - but when those feelings linger, therapy can be a form of preventative care. Support now can help you cope more effectively when life gets heavy later.

Shame isn’t about who you are, it’s about who you’re afraid people might think you are. In her decades of research, Dr. Brené Brown found that shame is deeply tied to unwanted identities - the labels or traits we fear being seen as, because we believe they threaten our sense of belonging. When these fears go unnoticed, they quietly drive our behaviors, our perfectionism, and our silence. When we name them, something shifts. Awareness doesn’t erase shame overnight, but it does soften it and opens the door to empathy, connection, and healing. 📝

Next time anxiety shows up, try this: put on your favorite comedian or a funny YouTube clip! 👏 While you can technically feel anxious and laugh close together, laughter activates parts of the brain and body that counter anxiety. When you laugh, your nervous system shifts out of threat mode, muscle tension decreases, and your body releases endorphins and other natural opioids that promote relaxation and positive emotion. Even a few moments of genuine laughter can interrupt anxious spirals and help your system reset. It’s not a cure, but it can be a helpful, accessible tool when things feel overwhelming.

January can feel demanding - routines return, expectations rise, and the holidays fade. If you’re struggling to keep up, remember this: you’re human. Take each day as it comes, and each moment at your own pace.

Most people think that they need relationship counseling when something bad happens, however we can seek help before it is too far gone.

You can create time and make a commitment to make your relationship healthier in order to develop strong pillars of respect, trust, support, honesty and shared responsibilities, as well as develop a healthy relationship.

When we value someone’s importance by nurturing the relationship we are cultivating a healthy relationship that will be able to weather the storms of life.

Nurturing a relationships can take many forms. The more nurturing skills we have in our repertoire of behaviors, the healthier our relationships will be.
