Anxiety could be a reminder within to:
📌 Turn off the screens.

📌 Get more sleep
📌 Exercise more
📌 Simply notice you are feeling anxiety, and without judgment take deep breaths

A few mental health check-in questions to ask yourself:
1. How am I feeling today, both mentally & physically?
2. What is taking up most of my headspace?
3. When did I last eat a whole meal?
4. Am I tired?
5. What will I engage in today that will bring be joy?

Looking to get into Mindfulness? Give one of these books a try. I’ve spent the last five years building my knowledge on Mindfulness. There are some really great Mindfulness resources out there, but try starting with one of these books. #Mindfulness #MindfulEating #Meditation

Thinking about all the senior year athletes who had to miss out on their last season playing for school. Must be a terrible feeling.
I’m enjoying my first week working for @betterhelp . This is a great platform that allows qualified counselors and clients to connect in a convenient and affordable way.
This is something I’ve heard from a lot of moms. Mothers today feel the pressure to compete with each other on social media. They live in fear of being the bad mom, of publicly making a parenting mistake. We should learn to support each other as parents. #WednesdayWisdom

I often tell my anxious clients to identify problem thoughts, but too often people with anxiety are plagued by problematic imagery. A socially anxious person might imagine himself being laughed at by others. The same rule applies when it comes to anxious imagery.

A client during a recent session: "One of the toughest parts of this [addiction] journey is that too many people have the D.A.R.E. mentality. They thought that being tough on me or taking a drill sergeant approach would rally me into getting clean...
