As we head into the Thanksgiving season, remember that this time of year can bring a mix of emotions. Gratitude and togetherness can be healing—while stress, grief, family dynamics, or feelings of loneliness can also surface.

🧡 Here are a few gentle reminders for this week:
• It’s okay if the holidays don’t feel joyful every moment.
• Setting boundaries is healthy.
• Give yourself permission to step away, breathe, and reset.
• Gratitude can be powerful—but so is validating how you truly feel.
• Take time to rest and check in with your mental well-being.

Whether this season brings comfort or challenges, you’re not alone.
At River Valley Behavioral Health & Wellness Center, we’re here to support you—during the holidays and beyond. 🧡

Wishing you a peaceful and gentle Thanksgiving.

💙 Men’s Mental Health Matters—And It Deserves the Same Care. 💙

We don’t talk about it enough:
Men struggle with mental health just as deeply as women, but are far less likely to be heard, supported, or taken seriously.

Many men grow up with messages like “toughen up,” “don’t cry,” or “handle it yourself.”
These expectations don’t build strength—they build silence.

💭 Here’s the reality:

1 in 8 men experience depression or anxiety.

Men are far less likely to seek help.

And men die by su***de at significantly higher rates.

Not because they’re weaker.
But because they’re often told they’re not allowed to struggle.

💙 Let’s change that.

Support the men in your life by:

Checking in without judgment
Encouraging open conversations
Normalizing therapy and emotional vulnerability
Recognizing that strength includes asking for help

✨ Men deserve the same compassion, care, and support as anyone else.

Their mental health is real, valid, and worthy of attention.

Let’s make space for men to speak, feel, and heal.

Take Care of Your Mind. Take Care of You.

You deserve moments of peace.
You deserve rest.
You deserve to feel supported — especially on days when everything feels heavy.

Your mental health matters, and caring for yourself isn’t selfish… it’s necessary.
Pause when you need to.
Breathe when you’re overwhelmed.
Reach out when you feel alone.
Give yourself the same compassion you offer everyone else.

Healing takes time. Growth takes courage.
And you don’t have to do any of it alone. 💚

Be gentle with yourself today — you’re doing the best you can.

🕯️ Transgender Day of Remembrance | November 20, 2025 🕯️

Today, we pause to honor the transgender lives lost to violence, hatred, and discrimination.
We remember their names, their stories, and the love they brought into the world.

For many in the transgender community, the weight of today is heavy — grief, fear, and exhaustion often sit beside resilience, strength, and hope. Mental health matters deeply, especially on days like this.

💛 If you are grieving, you are not alone.
💛 If today brings up pain or memories, your feelings are valid.
💛 If you’re carrying fear or stress, your mental well-being deserves care and support.

Transgender Day of Remembrance is more than reflection — it is a call to create spaces where every transgender person can live openly, safely, and mentally supported.

🕯️ We remember.
🕯️ We honor.
🕯️ We hold space for healing.

November is Native American Heritage Month!

We honor the strength, wisdom, and resilience of Native American and Indigenous communities. Their deep understanding of balance, connection, and healing reminds us that mental health is rooted in community, culture, and the land we live on.

This month, we celebrate Indigenous voices and traditions while acknowledging the importance of culturally informed and respectful mental health care for all.

👻 Supporting Your Child’s Mental Health This Halloween 🎃

Halloween is full of excitement — costumes, candy, and fun! But for some kids, it can also bring anxiety, sensory overload, or social stress. 💭

Here are a few ways to help your child enjoy the season while protecting their mental well-being:

🧡 Set Expectations Early: Talk about what to expect at events or while trick-or-treating.
💜 Let Them Choose: Give your child control over costumes or activities so they feel confident and safe.
🎃 Watch for Overstimulation: Crowds, noise, and sugar highs can be overwhelming — plan quiet breaks.
💬 Validate Their Feelings: If your child feels scared or anxious, reassure them that it’s okay to feel that way.
🌙 Focus on Fun, Not Perfection: The goal is joy, not picture-perfect moments.

A happy Halloween starts with a calm and supported mind. 💫

💙 Honoring Officer Pete Zajac 💙

Our hearts are heavy as we remember Farmington Police Officer Pete Zajac — a 15-year veteran who served his community with dedication, compassion, and integrity. For the past two years, Officer Zajac made a lasting impact as a School Resource Officer, building trust and connection with students and staff.

His passing is a heartbreaking reminder of the silent struggles so many first responders face. Behind the badge are human beings carrying the weight of others’ pain every day.

If you or someone you know is struggling, please know you are not alone.
📞 Call or text 988 for the Su***de and Crisis Lifeline — help is available 24/7.

Let’s honor Officer Zajac’s legacy by continuing to care for and support those who protect and serve our communities. 💙

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month 💜

At River Valley BHWC, we stand with survivors — those finding their voices, rebuilding their lives, and seeking safety and healing.

Domestic violence is not always physical. It can show up as emotional, psychological, financial, or verbal abuse — and it can affect anyone, regardless of age, gender, or background.

This month, we raise awareness, support survivors, and advocate for a future free from violence.
You are not alone. Help is available.

📞 National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-SAFE (7233)
💻 thehotline.org

💜 Together, we can break the silence and end the cycle. 💜

🌙 Rest: Regulate Your Circadian Rhythm 🌙
Goal: Protect sleep quality and support hormonal balance.

* Dim the lights after 7PM
Use amber bulbs or candles to mimic natural dusk and signal your body that it’s time to unwind.

* No screens 30 minutes before bed
Swap scrolling for reading or journaling under soft light to calm your mind.

* Create a wind-down ritual
Sip herbal tea, reflect on gratitude for 5 minutes, and stretch gently to release the day.

* Stay consistent
Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day — yes, even on weekends — to align with your body’s natural rhythm.

Prioritize rest. Your mind, mood, and body will thank you.

💚 Nourish: Support the Brain and Hormonal Rhythms 💚
Goal: Use food and supplements to stabilize energy and mood.

* Start your day right:
Protein breakfast — 30–40g of protein within 30 minutes of waking helps reset your cortisol rhythm.

* Feed your mind:
Omega-3s — Enjoy wild salmon, chia seeds, or a quality supplement to support serotonin and brain function.

*Balance your levels:
Vitamin D3 + K2 — 2000–5000 IU daily (test levels in October for optimal health).

*Relax and restore:
Magnesium glycinate in the evening supports deep sleep and a calm nervous system.

*Choose warmth and comfort:
Soups, roasted vegetables, herbal teas, and bone broths — foods that nurture rather than numb.

Take care of your body, and your mind will follow. 💛
