Studies show....
🫂 When someone is struggling with thoughts of su***de, often they actually feel a sense of relief if someone asks and shows genuine concern and care. It seems that talking openly about su***de might actually help reduce those thoughts instead of making them worse.
👂 People tend to feel less depressed, less overwhelmed, and more hopeful after talking to someone who listens without judging them.
❣ Helping someone who’s at risk build a network of supportive people and resources can encourage them to take positive steps and feel less hopeless.

Whether it's taking up a new fitness routine, dedicating time to meditation, seeing a therapist, or simply ensuring you get enough sleep, there are so many ways to invest in your well-being!
On the mental health front, mindfulness practices like meditation or deep-breathing exercises can significantly reduce stress. Journaling and therapy can also be a therapeutic way to process thoughts and emotions.
As always, engaging in hobbies that bring you joy, whether it's painting, reading, or gardening, can provide a much-needed mental break from daily stresses.
Remember, is a personal journey and looks different for everyone. The key is to find activities that you enjoy and that fit into your lifestyle, making it easier to stick with them in the long term.
Small, consistent steps can lead to significant improvements over time, so start where you are and celebrate each milestone along the way.

Boundaries aren't just a buzzword; they're your mental health's best friend. It's not selfish to say no; it's self-care. 💪
It might seem hard or scary, but it's so important-- copy and paste these to use where applicable:
- Direct and Polite: "I'd love to help, but unfortunately, I can't right now."
- Give a Reason: "Thanks for thinking of me, but I have too much on my plate at the moment."
- Assertive: "I'd rather not, but thanks for thinking of me."
- Apologetic: "I'm really sorry, but I have to pass."
- Compromise: "I can't do the whole thing, but I can help with [specific part]."
- The Randy Jackson: "That's a no from me, dawg."

We've all been there—feeling like we're just too much for others to handle. But here's the truth: You're not a burden.
Those who care about you want to support you, just like how you want to support them.
Sometimes it's easy to get caught up in gloomy thoughts, but remember that thoughts aren't facts and you are a one-of-a-kind sparkling gem. 💎
When you notice those feelings creep in, remind yourself that it's okay to lean on your friends, family, or a therapist. Talk it out and share your worries, because sometimes a simple conversation can lighten that emotional load.
Summer's winding down, and let's be real—change can be tough on kids. 🎒 As the school year approaches, there are lots of ways we can help them navigate the transition.
From setting routines to talking about their feelings, a little support goes a long way. You've got this, and so do they! 💪
What are some ways you're starting to prep for the school year? ⬇ Let us know in the comments below!
A lot of people think that "time heals all wounds" and we will just snap out of it eventually, but moving forward after a loss isn't so easy.
Moving forward means honoring that you have lost something or someone significant, and actually weaving it into your life's story, not just hitting the delete button. We get it-- easier said than done.
Check out our blog post all about how to navigate life while dealing with grief and loss:

Summer's here, and it's the perfect time to show yourself some love. 😎 Here are a few ideas we have:
1. Start by soaking up the sun responsibly—hello, Vitamin D! ⛅
2. Try journaling your thoughts while lounging in a park or practicing mindfulness with a walk on the beach. 🌊
3. Make time for friends who lift you up, and don't be afraid to say "no" to plans that drain you.
4. Dive into a new hobby, whether it's paddleboarding or just reading that book you've been eyeing.
5. Extra time with the kids out of school? Now's the perfect time to try out therapy and get things back on track before the schedules fill up again this fall.
➡ And remember, it's totally okay to have lazy days once in awhile! You deserve some TLC!
Nah, we're not naming names, but we DO want you to evaluate what's coming through your feed.
Ask yourself:
- Is this helpful for my mental health?
- Is this inspiring me to do better? Or making me feel worse?
Let's take one step further towards protecting our peace. Your brain will thank you! 👏
When we don't talk about mental health, we let shame and misconceptions grow. Speak up, share your story, and let's change the conversation together. 💬

Listen, everybody has their days (ahem...or months ...or years).
Just like physical health, mental health exists on a spectrum, and it's TOTALLY normal to experience ups and downs from time to time. Sometime we need to take it a bit easier on ourselves-- and that doesn't mean that we aren't strong or that there's something wrong with us.
➡ If you feel like you're struggling more than usual, practice giving yourself a bit more grace, think about what coping skills fit you best, and hey, having a kicka$$ therapist and support crew can also make a huge difference.
Pride month may be ending, but the acceptance, love, and advocacy doesn't! Tag someone who needs to hear this message! ⬇️

"But what if I don't know who I really am?!" 💭
Sometimes we are so used to masking, blending in, or serving others' needs that it feels intimidating to even think of figuring out who we really are deep inside. Believe us though, avoiding or pretending can be even more exhausting.
Let a therapist empower you on the path of discovery and self acceptance (they're really good at it). 🌈💖
Curious how a therapist is tackling some of these big questions with their kid clients? 📚🏳🌈
Here are a few books that our therapists recommend for talking about self-acceptance, all kinds of families, and gender identity PLUS some discussion questions in the last slide to open the convo up!
