It’s not about blame. It’s about healing.

🌟 August is Self-Awareness Month 🌟
This month is a reminder to check in with yourself—how you think, feel, and act.

Self-awareness helps us recognize our needs, set healthy boundaries, and respond to life’s challenges with intention.

Self-care is a big part of this. It means:
- Prioritizing rest
- Taking care of your body
- Knowing your limits

For those in recovery, self-awareness can be a powerful tool—helping you identify triggers, understand patterns, and take meaningful steps forward.

NorthStar Regional provides integrated substance use disorder treatment and mental health care with a high-intensity, multidisciplinary team.
