Do you have a habit of monitoring others’ emotions? If so, you are certainly not alone!

Emotional monitoring is a critical component of emotional intelligence, as it allows individuals to regulate their emotions effectively and respond thoughtfully rather than impulsively to others. This practice helps in managing stress, improving communication, and fostering healthier relationships by promoting self-awareness and emotional balance.

Although monitoring others emotions is a natural experience, it can come anxiety and stress inducing when it is done in excess. Doing so can led us to ruminate on others emotional experiences which can prevent us from enjoying the present moment.

If you’re looking for coping skills to lean on as an alternative to emotional monitoring, swipe through this post and let us know what you think in the comments below👇😁

Here’s a practical example of how it can look to break harmful cycles in one’s family.

Oftentimes, breaking family cycles can be challenging because growing up in a toxic environment can normalize these unhealthy patterns. This can result in facing backlash or rejection from other family members, which can make one feel reluctant to be the “black sheep” of the family for advocating for these changes in behavior from other family members. However, the cost of avoiding these changes often comes at the price of sacrificing your boundaries and feelings of safety.

Breaking toxic family cycles can be both empowering and supportive to one’s mental health. If you are looking for guidance in supporting yourself and breaking patterns of generational trauma, check out our website (link in bio) and find your perfect fit for a counselor today!💞

Intellectualization🧠 is a psychological defense mechanism where one addresses their emotions with logical reasoning, which can often prevent us from fully processing an emotion or experience.

People who intellectualize may focus on facts, theories, or abstract reasoning to avoid dealing with the emotional intensity or vulnerability that a situation might bring.

If you have difficulty connecting with your feelings in a supportive and sustainable way, therapy can help! Check out our website (linked in bio!) and find your perfect fit for a counselor today!🤍

Navigating ADHD can be challenging, but treating yourself with kindness is a powerful step forward.

Remember, ADHD is not a reflection of your worth or potential—it’s simply part of how your brain works. Every time you approach yourself with compassion instead of criticism, you’re building resilience and creating space to thrive.

Making progress doesn’t require us to be perfect all the time. It’s about learning what works for you and celebrating the small wins along the way.

You’re doing the best you can, and that’s more than enough💛

Our mindset is what shapes our perception the world and how we interact with it.

When we hold a fixed mindset, we tend to feel like we have little control over our circumstances. A fixed mindset operates on the beliefs that one’s abilities, intelligence, talents etc. are innate and unchangeable, leading one to avoid challenges, fear failure, and view effort as a sign of inadequacy.

In contrast, a growth mindset is the belief that abilities can be developed through intentional effort and perseverance. Individuals with growth mindsets embrace challenges, view failures as opportunities to grow, and accept that change is often a process that takes time and effort.

These differing perspectives profoundly influence how people approach learning, relationships, and personal development.

Practicing having a growth mindset benefits one’s mental health by fostering resilience, reducing anxiety, and improving self-esteem. By viewing challenges as opportunities to learn and grow, individuals with a growth mindset are better equipped to manage stress and recover from setbacks. This mindset also normalizes failure as part of the learning process, reducing fear of mistakes and promoting a positive outlook.

We are all capable of growing and changing into the best versions of ourselves. If you would be interested in some support as you start your healing journey, reach out for individual counseling today! We’d be honored to help you blossom into your most authentic self🌱🌸

Thepractice of accepting one’s body is an individual journey that can look different for everyone

One way to make daily practice of body acceptance feel more sustainable is to let go of the belief that we need to feel positive about our bodies all the time.
Instead, one can make space for any negative feelings about their body while still holding respect and appreciation for what our bodies are capable of.

Body neutrality, which encourages appreciating what our bodies do rather than how they look, is often seen as a more achievable approach for many people because it doesn’t require constant positivity but rather cultivates respect, acceptance, and self-compassion.

This approach helps reduce guilt or shame about not feeling perfectly happy with our bodies at all times and instead fosters a more flexible, forgiving relationship with ourselves that can last over the long term.💕

I-Statements are a communication tool that can be used in times of conflict to express one’s emotions and needs without placing blame on the other party.

This can help make conversations more productive because whenever we use “you-statements” such as “you never help me clean”, it can make the other party feel defensive. When one feels defensive in an argument, they might start listening to respond to you rather than truly trying to understand how you are feeling or how their behavior is impacting you.

By focusing on our own experiences using I-statements, we create a space for empathy and cooperation, which is key to resolving conflicts effectively. It’s a simple shift in how we speak, but it can make a big difference in how we’re heard and understood🤝

Toxic behaviors in family often get passed on from generation to generation because they are not defined as dysfunctional.

The normalized patterns of dysfunction in a family can create toxic environments, lack of healthy boundaries, and suppressed emotions amongst family members.

The first step in breaking these patterns is recognizing their abnormality. It requires courage to face the reality that you grew up with wasn’t healthy, and rewire your brain to understand what a functioning, loving relationship looks like.

Therapy can be a great tool in aiding the unlearning of these toxic patterns in families. Checking out our website (linked in bio) if you’d be interested in counseling services today!

The topic of su***de is a conversation that many of us feel the need to shy away from. We may fear that being vulnerable about our need for help can be seen as weakness, or that we may not be equipped to handle such conversations because we fear that we could say the wrong thing and make the situation worse.

But talking about su***de is life saving. There is no shame in needing support to help you get out of a dark place in your life. Also, the fear that talking about su***de can make someone more likely to die by su***de is a myth. Having these conversations can make a world of difference for someone who is struggling and doesn’t know how to ask for help.

On this World Su***de Awareness and prevention day, we want to encourage you to have conversations about mental health and su***de with your loved ones. Although it may feel challenging to broach this topic, it can be extremely influential in building support systems and helping loved ones access mental health resources that they need to feel more equipped to navigate the life challenges that they are facing.

You and your loved ones deserve the chance for a better tomorrow, so let’s show our support for others by having the touch conversations that could be the difference in saving a life🎗️
