☀️ Gratitude isn’t just about making a list. It’s about feeling it.

As Associate Therapist Gurneet Bassi shares, one beautiful way to do this is through savoring: slowing down and soaking in small, good moments. Whether it’s your first sip of coffee, the sun on your face, or a good laugh with a friend, take a pause. Notice the details. Let yourself fully experience it.

That’s how gratitude shifts from an idea to something you truly feel in your body. 💛

💛 World Gratitude Day may have passed, but the spirit of it continues, especially as we head into Thanksgiving.

As Associate Therapist Abigail Tablada shares, gratitude doesn’t need to erase challenges. Instead, it helps us find meaning and steadiness, even on hard days.

Try the Three Good Things practice: at the end of your day, reflect on three things that went right, no matter how small — a kind message, your morning coffee, or sunshine on your walk. ☀️

Simple moments like these remind us that there’s always something to be grateful for.

🍂 As Thanksgiving approaches, many of us pause to reflect on what we’re grateful for.

Gratitude is a powerful tool for mental health and well-being all year long. Research shows that gratitude can lower stress, improve sleep, strengthen relationships, and boost emotional resilience.

💛 Tip: Try ending your day by writing down three things you’re thankful for — no matter how small.

As Associate Therapist Kelsy Nelson shares, National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is about listening and honouring the truth of survivors and their descendants — creating space for grief, anger, resilience, and healing.

Kelsy reminds us that reconciliation is more than words. It calls us to action:
🔸 Attend Indigenous-led talks and events
🔸 Educate yourself and use respectful language
🔸 Support Indigenous businesses, artists, and creators

These are meaningful steps we can all take to honour truth and reconciliation in our daily lives.

Trauma isn’t always just personal—it can echo through families and communities across generations. This cycle, known as intergenerational trauma, can influence emotional health, relationships, and even physical well-being.

💡 Tip for healing: learning about your family’s history, practicing self-care, and building a supportive network can help disrupt these patterns and nurture resilience.

Childhood is a time of rapid brain development. Trauma during these years can alter brain function, impacting memory, stress response, and emotional regulation into adulthood.

💙 Supportive reminder: If you’ve lived through childhood trauma, the way your brain and body respond isn’t your fault. With trauma-informed care and compassionate support, healing is possible.

September 30th, Canada’s National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, is a time to honour the children who never returned home from residential schools and the survivors who live with this legacy every day.

As Associate Therapist Dominic Willson shares, reconciliation isn’t just about history — it’s about the present. The trauma of residential schools continues to ripple through generations, shaping families and communities.

For those working in education, counselling, or healthcare, reconciliation means:
🔸 Practicing cultural responsiveness
🔸 Listening to Indigenous voices
🔸 Respecting traditions and stories

This week, take a moment to learn, listen, and reflect on what reconciliation means in your own life and work.
