It's good to care for others, but you also need to remember to care for yourself! Use this chart as a guide to make peace with your mind and body-whether you dedicate a day to it or just do one of these activities—or for inspiration! Please remember to also do things in moderation and that not everyone's needs are the same.

Share this with someone else to remind them to care for themselves; stay beautiful! 🦋💜

Sunday afternoon at Molten Java was filled with music, conversation, and the smell of delicious food and drinks as Empathy Is The Cure raised money for Been Beautiful’s upcoming project, the Caterpillar Project, aiming to address the root cause of many mental health issues by teaching children the importance of and how to regulate emotions.

The Been Beautiful is forever grateful for Barry Seroff and his Empathy is the Cure series for organizing this event—we have very fortunately been able to raise $326 to fund classroom and art supplies for TCP! A big shoutout to the performers—Barry Seroff, Jade Stabile, and Conor Andrews—for their beautiful performances to help support our cause! You can check out their performances on Empathy is the Cure’s page. And, of course, thank you SO much to all who came to support and donated! Your contributions and support make a difference and allows us to effectively expand our reach.

Empathy is the Cure will have their next event on August 3rd at Molten Java to fundraiser for su***de prevention—go support them and have fun!!

Sexual assault (SA) is a crisis that impacts people of all genders, ages, and sexualities. Anyone can be a victim or a perpetrator. SA can severely impact a survivors wellbeing, routine, and behaviors—issues that only worsen when they do not receive the support they need, which may hinder them from reaching out for help or filing a report.

In this post, learn more about the impacts of SA and the importance of supporting victims and how to do so. If you or somebody you know has been impacted by SA, please do not hesitate to utilize the resources provided at the end of this post.
