National Stress Awareness Day

Stress is your body’s alarm—racing heart, tight chest, swirling thoughts, shortness of breath and more- triggered by pressure that feels endless.

How Can You Beat it:
1) Box Breathing: Inhale: Breathe in slowly through your nose for a count of 4, allowing your belly to expand fully.

Hold: Hold your breath for another count of 4.

Exhale: Breathe out slowly through your mouth for a count of 4, emptying your lungs completely.

Hold Again: Hold your breath for a final count of 4 before starting the cycle again.
Repeat this process for several minutes, focusing on your breath and the rhythm of the counts

2) Grounding: Name 5 things you see, 4 you touch, 3 you hear

For lasting calm, see our expert counselors at Innovative Alternatives. Therapy rewires stress into strength.

Five Years of Healing. Hope. Resilience. 💚

November 10th we’ll mark a milestone: five years since the opening of the Santa Fe Resiliency Center - a place born from our community’s courage in the wake of the 2018 tragedy at Santa Fe High School.

For half a decade, thanks to our world-class counseling team, we’ve offered free, trauma-informed care to survivors, family members, first responders, and anyone still feeling the impact. Because no one needs to heal alone.

As we reflect on pain, perseverance, connection and hope, we need YOUR help to keep this essential service going.

Your gift — large or small — will directly support our ability to remain free for those who most need it.

Thank you for standing with Santa Fe. For healing. For resilience. For each other. 💚
