Do you ever find yourself sitting and dwelling on a situation or staying mad or hurt about something way after the fact?

You may replay the situation in your mind trying to find something you missed or keep thinking about what is the right solution.

This way of thinking is often called rumination and can be caused by anxiety.

When anxiety is trying to protect us from getting hurt we'll ruminate on it looking for ways to avoid conflict, pain, and discomfort.

Therapy can help you learn how to stop ruminating and create more effective patterns for managing these problems in your life.

Recognizing Perfectionism as an anxiety symptom.

When we start to feel the need to be perfect, this is because we are anxious about what the results will be if we aren't perfect.
- People will judge me.
- I'll feel like a failure.
- This will have a last impact on my future.

The trick to overcoming anxiety is to allow yourself to feel it. Let things be less than perfect to find what you value.

Do your New Year's resolutions tend to fizzle out by February? You're not alone! Here are four common reasons resolutions fail—and how to make yours stick this year:

They’re too vague.
Resolutions like “Exercise more” sound great, but they lack clarity. Be specific! Try: “Work out for 30 minutes, three days a week.” Using the SMART goal method (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound) can help you create a clear, actionable plan.

The changes are too big.
Drastic changes can feel overwhelming. Instead of diving in headfirst, start small. For example, swap one sugary drink a day with water before committing to an all-out diet overhaul. Small steps lead to sustainable habits!

The focus is on uncontrollable outcomes.
Goals like “Lose 10 pounds” depend on factors you can’t always control. Instead, focus on process-based goals, like “Cook healthy meals at home twice a week.” These are not only achievable but also impactful regardless of the outcome.

You lose focus over time.
It’s easy to forget what you’re working toward or why after a few weeks. Keep your resolution top of mind by:

Writing it down.
Sharing it with a friend or accountability partner.
Tracking your progress using apps, journals, or visual trackers.
Tip: Celebrate small wins along the way—they’ll keep you motivated!

🌟 Learn to Accept Your Emotions with This Simple Trick 🌟

Think of your emotions as if you’re a scientific observer 🧪.
For example:
💭 “I’m noticing that comment made me feel sad. My eyes are wet, and my face feels tight. I can be curious about this.”

By removing judgment and observing your feelings like a scientist, you create space to process them naturally. 🌀

💡 Try this now: Set a timer for 2 minutes ⏱️. Step into the role of a curious observer and describe what’s happening in your body and mind—no judgment, just curiosity.

Acceptance starts with awareness. You’ve got this! ❤️

The holidays can stir up a mix of emotions. While there's often pressure to feel joyful, not everyone experiences the season that way—and that's okay.

For many, the added responsibilities, financial strain, or memories of loved ones we've lost can make this time challenging. Remember: your feelings are valid, and there's no shame in how you feel.

Here are a few ways to care for yourself this season:

🌟 Practice self-care in ways that nourish you.
💛 Seek support from people who make you feel safe.
🌿 Take a moment to breathe and reflect on what you're grateful for.
It's okay to honor your emotions and prioritize your well-being. You've got this. ❤️

🌥️ Shorter days got you feeling down? 🌥️

About 20% of people report feeling a dip in mood during the winter months, and up to 10% of people in Wisconsin experience Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)—about 5% higher than the general population.

The lack of sunlight can cause a drop in serotonin, which helps regulate mood, and melatonin, which supports restful sleep. 🌞💤

Ways to boost your mood this winter:

🌅 Brighten up: Open blinds, sit near windows, and try a light therapy lamp.
❄️ Get outside: Bundle up and get outside, even on cloudy days!
🏃 Exercise regularly: Just 5 minutes of movement can make a difference.
🛌 Keep a regular sleep schedule: Go to bed and wake up at the same time each day—yes, even on weekends. Avoid napping if you can.
If your mood stays low, consider reaching out to a therapist for support. 💙

🌅 Gratitude & Hope: Finding Light in Small Moments

When life feels overwhelming, it’s easy to get caught in a loop of negative thoughts. But gratitude can help break the cycle. 💫 By focusing on something specific you’re grateful for—even something small—you can shift your mindset and create a little more hope.

Today, I’m especially grateful for warm, cozy sweaters. 🧥✨

Take a moment to think about one thing you’re grateful for today and be as specific as possible. It’s amazing how even a quick thought can bring a little more peace. 💛

What’s one thing you’re grateful for? 🌻

🌬️ Feeling stressed? Start with your breath.

Breathing is the most direct way to calm your nervous system. Breathwork is the intentional control of your breath to bring balance back to your body and mind. 🧘
When our brains sense danger, our breathing speeds up—even if the threat isn’t real. This is why when anxiety or strong emotions rise, focusing on your breath can help bring calm and reduce stress. ✨

Try it: Breathe in slowly through your nose and out through your mouth, without any pauses. Do this 5 times. Notice how you feel. 🌿

💭 How often do you truly check in with your emotions?

We all have emotions, yet some can feel difficult to acknowledge. When we push them down, it often leads to more stress. By getting in touch with our emotions, we gain valuable insight into what's causing our stress and how to manage it.

Here’s a quick activity to try:

1️⃣ Set a 2-minute timer
2️⃣ Write down as many emotions as you can think of ✍️
3️⃣ Circle any emotions that feel uncomfortable to admit

Take a moment to reflect on why these emotions might feel challenging. 🌱 This small practice can help build a healthier connection with your emotions.

Mindfulness is the practice of slowing down and truly being present. By paying attention to our thoughts, emotions, and surroundings, we can connect more deeply with ourselves. 🌱

Often, we’re so caught up in our minds that we lose track of what’s happening around us. Mindfulness brings us back, helping us notice patterns, make conscious choices, and connect with our goals.

The best part? You can practice mindfulness anytime, anywhere. Like any skill, it becomes easier with time and consistency. 💫
