Stress Awareness Month 🤍 + National Pet Day 🐾

Sometimes support doesn’t need words.

Research shows that spending time with animals can lower cortisol (our stress hormone), increase oxytocin (linked to calm and connection), and help regulate our nervous system.

In simple terms… pets can help us feel safer, calmer, and less alone.

At Glasgow Cognitive Therapy Centre, we often talk about small, consistent ways to support your wellbeing — and for many people, that includes the quiet comfort of a pet beside them.

Today, we’re sharing some of our team’s own emotional support companions 🐶🐱

Take a moment today to pause, breathe… and maybe give your pet a little extra cuddle 🤍

If you’re needing more support, we’re here.
