Striving to do our best can be a beautiful motivator but when “good enough” never feels enough, perfectionism can quietly erode our wellbeing. This week we'll explore Perfectionism—how it shows up in our thoughts, relationships, and work, and how to loosen its grip without letting go of our values. We’ll dive into the roots of perfectionist tendencies, the hidden toll they take on mental health, and evidence-based ways to build self-compassion, flexibility, and resilience. https://alabama.crediblemind.com/lists/perfectionism

The City of Mobile plans to make several changes to the traffic flow around the Keeler Memorial Building (251 North Bayou Street). On the WALA newscast last night (https://www.fox10tv.com/2025/09/16/changes-coming-one-way-streets-mobile/), it announced the changes will begin next week.

The City of Mobile (https://www.cityofmobile.org/downtown-street-optimization/) said Saint Anthony Street will not be a yield-flow street once it is converted. It is wide enough to act as a traditional roadway with one lane of travel in each direction and parking on at least one side of the street.

Jefferson Street on the western side of the Keeler Memorial Building will become a two-way road. Parking will no longer be allowed.

The City of Mobile says there will be a “partial” change to Bayou Street. On this map, it shows the section closer to Government Street becoming two-way. At this time, the section in front of Keeler connecting to the visitor parking lot is not marked on the map. If this changes, more information will be provided.

In moments of stress or overwhelm, our breath is often the first thing we lose and the most powerful tool we have to return to calm. This week, we'll focus on practical, science-backed techniques that use conscious breathing to regulate the nervous system, ease tension, and anchor us in the present. You’ll learn simple exercises to help manage anxious thoughts and understand the connection between breath and emotional balance, while discovering ways to bring more ease into your daily routine. https://alabama.crediblemind.com/lists/breathwork-for-stress-and-anxiety

Talking about su***de can feel difficult, but it’s also one of the most powerful steps we can take toward healing and hope. It's important to acknowledge the deep emotional pain that can lead someone to struggle, while uplifting pathways to safety, connection, and support. We’ll explore how to recognize the warning signs, reach out with empathy, and offer meaningful help. Whether you or someone you care about has been affected, this week’s resources aim to foster understanding, reduce stigma, and remind us all that recovery is possible. https://alabama.crediblemind.com/lists/su***de-and-prevention
