The science of a deep breath:

When you take a slow, intentional breath, you're not just "calming down"-- you are activating your body's built-in safety system.

Deep breathing signals your parasympathetic nervous system(the "rest and digest" mode) that you are safe by slowing you heart rate and easing muscle tension.

Try this:
- Inhale through your nose for 4 seconds
- Hold for 4 seconds
- Exhale through your mouth for 6 seconds
Repeat 3-5 times and notice your body soften.

Breathing is your body's simplest way to remind your brain that you're safe right now.

Seasonal Shifts and Emotional Health:
As the season starts to change, so do our rhythms.

You might notice shifts in energy, motivation, or mood. That is completely normal. Shorter days, colder weather, and less sunlight can impact how we feel and function.

Try these small ways to care for yourself this season:
- Get morning light exposure whenever you can
- Find a consistent sleep and meal routine
- Move your body gently- even a short walk is great
- Reach out for support if you feel your mood slipping

Change can be groaning when we move through it with awareness and self-compassion.

Learn more about changing seasonal emotional health and supportive options at www.risetherapy.net.

What is World Mental Health Day?

World Mental Health Day is about raising awareness, breaking stigma, and reminding each of us that caring for our mind is just as important as caring for our body.

This year, take a moment to pause and check in with yourself and those around you. Ask:
- How am I really doing?
- What do I need right now?
- Who can I reach out to for support?

Small moments of awareness can lead towards big steps towards healing.
Visit www.risetherapy.net to learn more about how we can support your mental health journey.

Gentle Reminder: Rest is productive.

Your mind and body weren't built to run on overdrive. Pausing to recharge isn't laziness- it is how you restore the energy to keep going.

Whether it is taking a walk, sitting in stillness, or just letting yourself breathe-- rest is an act of self-care.

If you are feeling worn down, therapy can be a space to learn healthier rhythms and coping strategies. Visit us at www.risetherapy.net to learn more.

Happy October!
A new month is a gentle reminder that you don't have to carry everything from the past with you. You can pause, rest, and step forward with fresh energy.

This month, give yourself permission to:
- Let go of what isn't serving you
- Prioritize rest as much as productivity
- Take one small step toward your well-being

Therapy is one way to support yourself in building the life you want- one month, one step at a time. Visit us at www.risetherapy.net to learn more.
