🧠 Therapy should feel as normal as going to the gym 🏋️‍♂️
You don’t need to wait for a breakdown to check in with yourself.
Mental health isn’t a crisis thing—it’s a care thing 💛
It can be simple. It can be accessible. It can be yours.

Let’s make talking about it easy ✨

On this Memorial Day, we gently pause.

We honor the lives lost in service, holding space for both collective remembrance and personal reflection.
Grief and gratitude often walk together—so whether today brings memories, joy, stillness, or sorrow, know that all of it is welcome.
This is a day for presence, for honoring, and for allowing yourself to feel whatever arises.

— Akshay Dubey

You are allowed to grow beyond what hurt you. One breath, one step at a time. 💚

🌷 Taking a Moment for Mothers 🌷

Mother’s Day can hold a lot—love, joy, longing, gratitude, even grief.

At Living in the Pause, we’re slowing down today to honor all of it.

To the moms who raised us 🤱
the ones we miss 🕊️
the ones becoming 🌱
and those who show up in quiet, unseen ways—
we see you. We’re grateful for you.

Wherever this day finds you, we hope you can take a moment to breathe, feel, and simply be.

Happy Mother’s Day. 💐

With love,
Living in the Pause
