The shortest verse in the Bible “Jesus wept”.

Two words. A powerful illustration that God almighty in the human form openly shared emotion- and not just cried but wept. May we all be reminded the importance of processing our human emotions, not pushing them away, but experiencing them fully. So whether you need to weep, cry, feel anger, give yourself permission to do so.

“DON’T DO ANYTHING. JUST REST.
Don’t fall into the trap of believing that doing nothing… means doing nothing for yourself.

We’ve been conditioned to believe that not being productive is somehow a failure.
That if it doesn’t have a visible outcome, it doesn’t count.
That rest is wasted time.

We’ve become so used to being busy —
to checking off boxes,
to tracking our progress,
to measuring worth in output —
that we’ve forgotten something essential:

Rest is productive.

It’s the moment your body heals.
Your mind exhales.
Your soul whispers.

Reading a magazine.
Taking a long shower.
Sitting in the garden with a warm cup of coffee.
None of it is a waste.

Because time spent resting… is time well spent.

We’re not machines.
We’re not meant to hustle 24/7.
We are human beings.

And sometimes, we just need to be.”

— Becky Hemsley

When you think about something that makes you happy, your brain sends out signals that make you feel good, and when you think about something that worries or scares you, your brain sends out signals that make you feel upset or anxious. This interplay between thoughts and feelings shows the power of our internal dialogue (or self-talk) and the influence on our emotional state.

🎉CELEBRATING 25 YEARS!! 🎉

DaySpring Counseling joyfully celebrates its 25th year anniversary this month!. Since 2000, our practice has served thousands of individuals, families, teens, children and couples throughout the Northeastern Ohio area at our 2 office locations in Stow and Akron. We have been driven to provide highly professional mental health counseling services integrating a Christian framework for those we have served. Words can not express the honor and privilege it has been to be apart of the healing and restoration we have witnessed in so many lives for over 2 decades. We are grateful to have some of the most compassionate and dedicated therapists, several of whom have been with our practice for many years! Thank you so much to our DaySpring team: Debbi Sands, Jennifer Vasquez, Nora Cord, Mike Johnson, Mark Kurcsak, Kristen Eley, Julia McDonald, Lisa Mellot and Hannah Hebenthal. Lastly, we want to honor DaySpring founder Dr. Regina Obney, who unfortunately passed away last month but left an undeniable mark on the lives of those she counseled and served through ministry.

Hope is CHOOSING to believe things will get better.

"Whatever thought you are thinking at the moment that feels more important to think than feeling grateful, alive, content, joyful, optimistic, loving and at peace….that’s the only thing that stands between you and happiness”. -- M. Karn
