Wow! The has been awesome so far. I’m so grateful I had the opportunity to present on the challenges after traumatic brain injury and how Recreational Therapy can help support survivors and caregivers. I’ve also learned so much about new interventions, assessments, interdisciplinary collaboration, and even marketing strategies to help grow and advocate for our field.

Excited for Day 2 and soaking up everything I can to bring back to our team and our community. 💚

What story do your waiting room chairs or chairs in your space tell?

What story do your waiting room chairs or chairs in your space tell?

Accessible Seating: Every Chair Tells a Story

Next time you walk into a waiting room, clinic, school, or community space, take a moment to look at the chairs.

Are they all the same?

Many spaces have one style of chair, either all with arms or all without. It may seem fine at first glance, but not every body, age, or ability can use the same type of seating.

A chair that feels “standard” to one person can be too low for someone with hip or back pain, too narrow for a plus-size person, too deep for someone of smaller stature, or too soft for someone who needs stable support to stand. A parent with a baby might need a sturdy chair with arms. A senior or person using a mobility aid may need a taller seat to help them rise safely. A child might simply want to sit beside a sibling.

Accessibility isn’t only about ramps, elevators, or signage. It’s about choice. It’s about creating an environment where everyone can comfortably take a seat without having to ask, wait, or wonder if the chair will support them.

Imagine a space with a mix of options: a few wider chairs, some with arms and some without, a taller stool-style chair, and a sturdy spot for someone plus size or a parent and child. Add a mixture of chairs and space for wheelchair users so every person feels welcome and can sit comfortably. That’s inclusion in action.

Every chair tells a story about who is welcome and who was forgotten. What story do the chairs in your space tell?

Celebrating Women’s History Month 💜

Every March we honor Women’s History Month, a time dedicated to recognizing the strength, resilience, and contributions of women throughout history. What began as Women’s History Week in 1980, led by the National Women’s History Project and recognized by Congress, quickly grew into a month-long celebration in 1987 to ensure women’s stories, leadership, and impact are acknowledged and remembered.

Women have always been leaders, caregivers, innovators, and advocates—often balancing many roles while continuing to uplift their families, communities, and each other. At Recreate Yourself, we believe honoring women also means creating space for them to care for themselves.

That’s why we’re proud to offer our Whole Hearted Women’s Group, a supportive space where women can reconnect with themselves and each other through:
✨ Mindfulness practices
✨ Gentle movement and body awareness
✨ Therapeutic art and creative expression

These experiences are designed to nurture well-being, build connection, and remind women that caring for themselves is not a luxury—it’s essential.

This month, we celebrate the women who came before us, the women making change today, and the women who are still discovering their strength.

💜 Call to Action:
If you’re ready to slow down, reconnect, and prioritize your well-being, join us for our Whole Hearted Women’s Group. Register at www.recreateyourselfllc.com/events. Your wellness matters.

🧠💚 Brain Injury Awareness Month | Celebrating All March 💚🧠

Brain Injury Awareness Month has been recognized every March since 1984, when the Brain Injury Association of America launched a national campaign to increase awareness, reduce stigma, and advocate for individuals and families impacted by brain injury.

At Recreate Yourself, we’re celebrating survivors and their caregivers all month long by educating, empowering, and supporting survivors in their recovery journey.

✨ Top 3 Things to Know About Brain Injury:

1️⃣ Brain injury is often invisible.
Many individuals may look “fine” but experience challenges with memory, attention, emotional regulation, fatigue, and sensory processing.

2️⃣ Recovery is not linear.
Progress can come in waves. Some days feel strong, others feel heavy — and that’s completely normal.

3️⃣ Purposeful activity promotes healing.
Engaging in meaningful recreation, movement, creativity, and connection supports brain recovery and overall well-being.



💚 How Recreational Therapy Supports Brain Injury Recovery:

✔️ Improves cognitive skills through structured games and activities
✔️ Builds strength, balance, and coordination through adaptive movement
✔️ Supports emotional regulation through mindfulness and leisure engagement
✔️ Reduces isolation by fostering social connection
✔️ Restores confidence through successful participation in meaningful activities

Recreational therapy isn’t just “activities.” It’s evidence-based, goal-driven intervention that helps individuals rebuild identity, independence, and joy after brain injury.

If you or someone you love has questions about brain injury recovery, reach out to Recreate Yourself. We’re here to help you recreate your life — one meaningful activity at a time. 💚
