Happy Monday ✨

Quick check-in: When you read “Happy Monday” did you: feel a little boost of energy OR 😒 immediately roll your eyes?

No judgment either way! It’s a cool little reminder: how we frame things really shapes how we feel about them. This week’s challenge: pay attention to your inner dialogue.
Are you saying:
“I have to…” or “I get to…”
“I’m failing” or “I’m figuring it out”
“I have to be the best” or “Doing my best is enough”

Reframing your words can shift your whole mood, motivation and mindset. It’s not toxic positivity—it’s giving yourself a more helpful lens to navigate the week and to meet yourself where you’re at!

Just because it’s summer doesn’t mean life slows down. Between the hustle of routines, plans and expectations of what summer brings it’s easy to disconnect from ourselves. This week Coastal challenges you to pause and set one kind intention- a gentle promise to support your mental health.

Why do intentions matter? They help ground us when life feels busy. They hold us accountable- not to productivity but to inner kindness. They shift the focus from “doing more” to being present and being compassionate.

What intention are you holding this week? 💙 ❤️

Stress doesn’t just stay in our minds—it settles into our bodies too. This weeks coping skill we’re focusing on Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) to help release that built-up tension and bring you back to calm.

Follow the arrows on the image and try this: Tense each muscle group for 4 seconds then slowly release. Start at the top (like your forehead or shoulders) and work your way down through the body. Repeat as needed breathing deeply with each release.

Why it helps: PMR reduces physical symptoms of stress, calms the nervous system, improves sleep and helps you become more aware of where you hold tension.

If this interests you ask your therapist for guidance 💙

Take a moment today to check in with your body. Relaxation is a skill and you’re practicing !

When we feel stressed or overwhelmed our nervous system often shifts into one of four responses: fight, flight, freeze or fawn. These are instinctive survival strategies—not flaws or failures 💙

You might notice this in everyday moments like avoiding tasks (flight)
snapping at a loved one (fight)
going blank in conversation (freeze)
or over-apologizing to keep the peace (fawn)

Understanding your default response is the first step toward building awareness and regulation. Which one shows up for you most often?

When anxiety or overwhelm takes over your thoughts can race and your body can feel like it’s in overdrive. That’s where grounding techniques come in—they help shift your focus out of your mind and into your body.

The 5-4-3-2-1 Grounding Technique works by engaging all 5 of your senses to bring you back to the present moment. It gently interrupts spiraling thoughts and calms the nervous system by anchoring you in what’s real and right now.

This technique tells your brain: “I’m safe. I’m here. I can handle this”.
 Try it the next time stress shows up—and let your senses guide you back to center 💙

Stress is a part of life—but when left unchecked it can lead to burnout. Knowing the difference can help you take the right steps toward rest and healing!

Stress: often comes with urgency, tension, and the push to keep going. Burnout: can feel like the light has gone out—emotionally, physically and mentally.

If you’re noticing the signs, know that you’re not alone. It’s okay to pause, ask for help and make changes. Your well-being matters.
