Anxiety has quickly become one of the most diagnosed mental health issues in our teens today. There is a delicate balance between school, family, extracurricular activities, social lives, and COVID lifestyle changes and unfortunately, many of our teens are not finding that balance. Stress is a normal part of life. The reality is how we think about the stress and anxiety that makes all the difference. This workshop is designed to offer strategies and proper coping skills to ...navigate the stress and anxiety they are experiencing today. Join us! Spots are limited. Email [email protected] to reserve your spot and gain long term strategies for your teens and for you. Masks are required. We can’t wait to see you!

If your life feels upside down - change your perspective. For @annankennedy, she goes to gratitude. She writes 10 things daily that she is thankful for - not just the big things like her family, her home, her career but also the small things - her ability to run, reading with her kids, or eating Thai food. It helps ground her in the present and makes things feel a bit easier. For @caitlynprocoaching, she goes to curiosity. She finds ways to see her problems as opportunities.... She acknowledges what she can’t control, and focuses on what she can. Sometimes it’s visiting a new place, trying a new routine or setting a new goal, but always discovering what she is capable of on the days that feel a bit harder. - How do you change your perspective? We want to know! See more

Check in with your body. How are you feeling? Check in with your mind. What are you thinking? ... Circumstances in our lives change everyday, often without a moment to explore them. Take the time to get up to date with yourself. Finish this meeting with self by asking what do I need? Then go from there. And if you need an unbiased friend, you have us.

How often do you have a thought that starts with I should... and it makes you feel good? The chances are not many. There are no should’s. There is only what you choose to do and what you choose not to do. You have the power here. What are you going to choose to do because you WANT to? We challenge you to begin saying yes to things you want and no to things you don’t. ... Stop should-ing yourself, and start choosing yourself. You are worth it.

Today is World Kindness Day. What is one thing you can do something kind for someone else? Remember that even a small gesture can have a giant impact . And please don’t forget to be kind to yourself, too. .... #worldkindnessday #positivevibes #growthmindset #worldkindnessday2020 #mentalhealth #everydayonpurpose #therapy #lifecoach #therapistsofinstagram #coaching

Mindful Monday! Every Monday, we will bring you a simple mindfulness exercise brought to you by How to Train a Wild Elephant, a book by Dr. Jan Crozen Bays. Each task is designed to be completed during your daily routine. The goal is to bring more presence and intention into your life. So what is mindfulness? according to merriam webster : noun 1. the quality or state of being conscious or aware of something.... 2. a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, used as a therapeutic technique. Basically, we want to help you develop the tools to experience being fully present in your life. Aware of where you are and what you're doing, and away from all of the things that we have to do moving forward or thinking through all the things that happened in our past. First challenge: Non dominant hand For the rest of the day, use your non dominant hand in every task you try to complete. Use your non dominant hand to eat, to text, to write, to cook all of the things! And notice how we often zone out and do things in our daily life without actually being present!

There is nothing more important than your health, and that includes mental health. Once we are able to take care of ourselves, a lot of other things fall into place that enable us to be able to be the best version of ourselves and share that with our friends, family , and community. If you have a few minutes, this podcast is definitely worth a listen. @goaldiggerpodcast https://jennakutcherblog.com/elyse/

Anxiety is real and it is rampant in our teens. I am so excited that The walker school is putting this event on- a screening of the documentary Angst. It is open to the community. If you have a young one, put it on your calendar! Mental health is just as important as physical health. I hope to see you there!!

The beginning of a new year. A time where people tend to focus on workout routines, and eating habits. Y’all that is super important (I just started the whole 30 going strong on day 2 right now ).... but as you are evaluating intentions, resolutions, goals. whatever it is that you call it-please, please don’t forget about your mental health. It can look like many things : meditation, journaling, long walks in the beach, therapy.... whatever it is for you, do it. Take care... of yourself. You deserve it. If you decide therapy is what can help, don’t wait, just do it. If it’s not me, that is so fine! But I have referrals, so feel free to call me with any questions. Just please take care of youself I wish you a happy and healthy 2019!! https://goo.gl/images/ivk1cT
