✨ Mental Health Monday ✨

We all have days where our energy feels low and it’s tough to stay motivated. The good news is that there are simple, science-backed practices that can help you recharge your body and mind.

Here are seven ways you can raise your energy today:

💨 Breathwork – Slow, intentional breathing signals safety to your body and helps disarm the stress response.
🧘 Meditate – Even just ten minutes of mindfulness or quiet reflection can reset your mind and restore clarity.
🏃 Exercise – Movement is medicine. A quick walk, stretch, or dance session boosts both mood and energy.
🎶 Sing – Turn up the music and sing like no one is listening! It activates joy and releases tension.
🌳 Go Outside – Fresh air and time in nature naturally ground and recenter you.
🤲 Give – A small act of kindness, whether donating or simply offering a smile, uplifts both you and others.
🌟 Tapping – This gentle technique helps calm the fight-or-flight response and resets your nervous system.

Energy isn’t just physical—it’s emotional, mental, and spiritual. By building small rituals into your daily routine, you can create more balance, resilience, and joy.

Which of these will you try this week?

Anxious Mondays Explained
Ever notice that anxiety spikes on Mondays? It’s not just you—there are real reasons:
• 📅 Change in routine: Going from weekend flow to work structure triggers stress.
• ⏰ Sleep disruption: Staying up later on weekends throws off your body clock.
• 💭 Anticipatory stress: Thinking about the week ahead can cause worry before it even begins.

What helps:
• Stick to a steady sleep schedule (even on weekends).
• Plan something small to look forward to on Monday.
• Start the day with one easy win before tackling the bigger stuff.

Your Monday mood doesn’t define your whole week—it’s just a starting point.

🌟 Gentle reminder from Aspire 🌟

Life doesn’t have to be perfect to be meaningful. Progress is progress—no matter how small. 💛

💡 Don’t forget:
• Everything isn’t perfect
• You are stronger than you think
• A small step is still a step forward
• Mistakes are part of learning
• Getting back on track is not failure
• Resting when you need to is healthy

✨ Take care of yourself today. You deserve it.

It’s Wednesday, which means we’re halfway there and still worthy of a reset.
• Name your top 1–2 priorities, let the rest wait
• 5‑minute walk or stretch between tasks
• Eat something with protein and fiber
• Text one person “thinking of you”
• After work, do one thing that’s just for joy
Need help making this stick? We’re here.

Back-to-School Mental Health Reminder

As summer winds down and the school year begins, it’s normal for both kids and parents to feel a mix of excitement, nerves, and stress. New routines, academic expectations, and social transitions can take a toll on mental health.

A few gentle reminders as we head into the season:
• Acknowledge emotions. Change can be overwhelming. Let your child (and yourself) name and share what they’re feeling—whether it’s excitement, worry, or both.
• Prioritize routines. Sleep, nutrition, and downtime are powerful tools for keeping the mind and body balanced during this adjustment period.
• Build connection. Encourage open conversations at home. Checking in regularly helps children know they’re supported and understood.
• Model self-care. Kids learn how to cope by watching the adults around them. Showing your own healthy ways of managing stress makes a lasting impact.

If the back-to-school transition feels heavier than expected, you’re not alone. Support is available; for students, parents, and teachers. At Aspire, we’re here to walk with you through the changes and help build tools for resilience and balance this school year.

📚💙 Wishing everyone a strong start to the semester and a reminder that mental health matters every step of the way!

Meet Dr. Scott Su, Ph.D. (he/him)
Licensed Clinical Psychologist & Neuropsychology | PSY #30043
Currently accepting new patients for evaluations

We are excited to introduce Dr. Scott Su, a licensed clinical psychologist with over 10 years of experience conducting neuropsychological and psychological assessments. Dr. Su works with individuals across the lifespan, from children to older adults, in both inpatient and outpatient settings.

His expertise includes assessments for neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), specific learning disorder (SLD), and intellectual developmental disorder (IDD). Dr. Su also has extensive experience working with patients with dementia, stroke, and traumatic brain injury.

Dr. Su uses an integrative approach to assessment, considering the biological, psychological, and social factors that influence each person’s development and mental health. He looks at how genetic, environmental, and psychological elements interact, creating individualized treatment plans aimed at reducing distress and improving overall functioning.

He earned his doctorate in clinical psychology with an emphasis in neuropsychology from Palo Alto University, completed his internship at the Missouri Health Sciences Psychology Consortium, and his postdoctoral residency at Kaiser Permanente in Vallejo, California.

Whether you or a loved one is seeking clarity through evaluation or guidance in navigating cognitive or psychological challenges, Dr. Su provides compassionate, knowledgeable, and personalized care.

Your brain is an organ — just like your heart, lungs, or stomach. When it’s struggling, it needs care, not criticism.

If you had the flu, you’d rest, hydrate, eat gentle foods, and give your body time to recover.
Your brain deserves the same compassion.
When you’re feeling mentally unwell, slow down, nourish yourself, and get the right support…whether that’s therapy, connection, movement, or medication.

You wouldn’t push your body to run a marathon while ill.
Don’t expect your brain to power through without care.
