December is Seasonal Depression Awareness Month. It is easy to miss these symptoms and perceive them to be something else. The days are shorter, colder and it gets dark quicker. This is daunting for many and these symptoms are more common than you think. Many experience symptoms aligning with Seasonal Affective Disorder. Educating yourself can motivate you or someone else to receive the mental help needed. Be patient with yourself and know you are not alone.❄️🙂

If you have never attempted a body scan meditation, it entails bringing the focus of one's mind to the sensations occurring in different parts of one's body. While custom and habit have us ignore and resist sources of pain and discomfort, body scan meditation has us focus on these sources of pain, breathe into them, and accept what we are experiencing. Body scan meditation has the potential to change our relationship with our body and with the physical pain we might be experiencing on a regular basis. Would you try it?

Today is International Family Day! Just a healthy reminder that the quality of our relationships tie directly back to our own psychological wellbeing. Whether that includes your family, friendships, kinship system, or whatever else your social support system may consist of. Whether these relationships are currently doing well, or are in a state where there is much to be worked on, it is worth asking what conversations or experiences do you think may strengthen these bonds and foster a greater degree of closeness and belonging.

An enormous factor in developing a sustainable mindfulness practice is being able to create a space that is conducive to introspection, relaxation, and an inner sensation of peace. With the goal of promoting wellness, it would be beneficial if we applied this goal towards all spaces that we occupy often. One of the ways in which one can create a space that assists in the cultivation of mindfulness is with paying mind to ways we can stimulate one's sense of smell. This can be done through various means such as the inclusion of flowers, herbs, candles, incense, and sprays. What are some ways that you can start improving the spaces that you spend much of your time in? How can you stimulate your sense of smell more regularly?

It is too often in the fields of mental health that we focus only on resolving problems, "fixing" people's impairments, and treating thoughts and behaviors that are seen as disorderly. While these are incredibly important areas of focus, wellness refers to the multitude of ways in which we can seek an increase in quality of life that goes beyond the absence of problems. There is far more to an individual person than the things that are wrong with them. When viewed through the framework of wellness, we consider areas of strength, opportunities for further growth, and how we can get someone to thrive rather than to merely survive.

The attainment of mastery is an important area of wellness, and yet dreams and goalsetting are often sources of suffering for many of us. Learning and practice are constructive experiences that are often counteracted by the destructive intrusive thoughts which tell us that someone, somewhere, has already accomplished what we are attempting and that our work is meaningless. Adopting an attitude of gratitude for the progress we have made thus far, a recognition of the potential that resides within us, and a view that is focused on our own journey are necessary antidotes to the sources of meaningless that often plague us in our pursuits towards a better life.

Awe and wonder are important aspects of our lives that are often overlooked in the midst of the hustle and bustle of our work, family life, and education. Awe and wonder may involve the sensation that one belongs to something larger than oneself, the experience of surrendering one's fate to destiny, and awe of the spectacular beauty of nature and reality. Where can you go, or what is something that you can do to experience these sensations of wonder, curiosity, and amazement that we often lose in our adult lives?

Here is a healthy reminder that the body should not be considered separate from the mind and that what we eat affects our mood, how we feel, and consequently, our mental health. The vagus nerve is a large nerve that directly connects our brains to our guts and so what we put into our gut can spell several consequences for our mental health whether negative or positive. A healthy diet is the cornerstone of any self-care regimen and plays a role in getting ourselves where we need to be in pursuit of our goals and daily tasks. What have you been putting into your body?
