Mid-week check-in 🧘 Studies show that mindfulness practices can reduce stress and anxiety by 20%+ in just a few weeks. In our busy Queen City lives, even 5 minutes of intentional breathing can support both mental and physical health.
Pro Tip: Try Box Breathing: inhale 4 • hold 4 • exhale 4 • hold 4

Holiday Wellness Tip: Set Gentle Boundaries

The holiday season brings invitations, expectations, and sometimes pressure to do more than feels right.
But remember: it’s always okay to say “no.”
No to overcommitting.
No to situations that jeopardize your peace.
No to drugs, excessive alcohol, and anything that doesn’t support your well-being.

Setting healthy boundaries is not selfish—it’s self-care.

✨ Did you know?
• According to national health reports, nearly 1 in 3 adults say they feel increased pressure to drink alcohol during the holidays.
• Holiday periods are also associated with a spike in substance-related emergencies, making mindful choices more important than ever.
• People who set clear boundaries report lower stress levels and a higher sense of emotional well-being.

Protect your peace, your safety, and your mental space—you deserve a season that feels healthy, calm, and true to you. 💛
