As the new school year begins, it’s important to prepare your child to handle bullying:

1. Listen & Reassure: Stay calm and remind them it’s not their fault.

2. Build Confidence: Teach them to firmly say “Stop it,” and practice standing tall.

3. Take Action: Support their hobbies, discuss safety, and keep a log of any incidents.

💬 Need more guidance? Reach out to us through DM for assistance. We’re here to help.

🌟 This month, we’re shining a light on the mental health challenges faced by Black, Indigenous, and People of Color. It’s time to break the stigma, amplify voices, and ensure everyone has access to the support they need. 💪🏾💙

Let’s celebrate resilience, share resources, and build a community where mental health matters for ALL. 🧠✨

Happy 4th of July! 🎆 Let’s celebrate freedom, connection, and the joy of a heartfelt hug. Hugs are powerful acts of comfort and connection, expressing emotions words can’t capture. Holding a loved one close makes us feel deeply connected, sharing each other’s essence.

Hugs can also shift our internal state, helping us feel more grounded and calm. They regulate stress and enhance bonds. A long hug with your partner can even heighten arousal and build excitement for later. Enjoy the festivities and take a moment to hug your loved ones tight. 🤗❤️

🌟 Perfectionism is more than high standards; it’s an unhealthy quest for flawlessness driven by fear. Recognize the signs: all-or-nothing thinking, never feeling good enough, fear of failure, procrastination, and micromanagement. Discover 5 tips to overcome it:

1️⃣ Reframe Your Thoughts
2️⃣ Set Realistic Goals
3️⃣ Practice Self-Compassion
4️⃣ Seek Feedback
5️⃣ Embrace Mindfulness and Relaxation

Have you ever found yourself catastrophizing? It’s when your mind automatically jumps to the worst possible scenario in any given situation. For example, imagine your friend takes a few hours to reply to your text. Instead of thinking they might be busy, you immediately think, “They must be mad at me,” or “They don’t want to be friends anymore.” This leap from a delayed response to a drastic conclusion is a classic case of catastrophizing.

🧠 **Detach from Thoughts**: “Thoughts are not facts,” reminds Dr. Daniel Siegel. They’re just mental events!

👩‍⚖️ **Interrogate Catastrophizing**: Looking for evidence helps dispel those worst-case scenarios.

🤔 **Consider All Options**: That email tone shift? It might just be a hectic moment for your colleague.

🪴 **Grounding Techniques Help**: Sometimes, waiting for the storm to pass is key. Use the 5-4-3-2-1 method and deep breathing!

👐 **Be Gentle with Yourself**: Would you speak to a friend like that? “Be gentle with yourself,” advises Sharon Salzberg.

🌟 As we commemorate Memorial Day and the heroes who sacrificed for our freedom, let’s reflect on our own mental and emotional health. Is your glass half empty or half full? What you affirm becomes your reality. Embrace abundance and create a reality full of possibilities. There’s no better way to honor those that have come before us, than to live our lives fully. Standing on the shoulders of giants that have come before us. 💖✨
