EMDR offers a powerful way to heal without the shame or stigma, or talking about every detail of the trauma itself.

Nothing quite hits like the first bloom of spring! That little sign of life after months of gray feels like nature’s way of saying, “You made it!” A reminder that growth takes time, and brighter days are ahead. Take a deep breath, soak it in, and be kind to yourself—you’re blooming too.

Gratitude has been known to boost mood, reduce stress, and increase life satisfaction. So what better day to set a reminder about incorporating gratitude into your daily routine than Thanksgiving (for my Canadians)?
The amazing part about gratitude practice is how easily it can be incorporated into your day.

🦃 Keeping a gratitude journal doesn’t have to be complicated or fancy. If you’re having trouble, start by writing one thing you’re grateful for each day. Try and write something different each day. It could also be something you did well, or are proud of, or made you laugh.

🦃 When you go for a walk, try and notice things you might not walk past. Take in the sights, sounds, and smells around you. Is there anything to be grateful for around? Maybe it’s the beauty of the nature around, or your body for carrying you through your walk.

🦃 Try talking to someone about what you’re grateful for, and mindfully listen to what the other person is grateful for. Does this give you another perspective to life?

Anger isn’t always negative; it can be a powerful catalyst for change and self-assertion. It highlights injustices, motivates action, and drives personal growth. When channeled constructively, anger can lead to resolution and empowerment, helping individuals address issues and advocate for necessary transformations in their lives and communities.

Anger becomes unhealthy when it leads to aggression, destructiveness, or unresolved conflict. It undermines relationships and mental well-being, especially if it’s frequent, intense, or misdirected, causing more harm than good.
