🌟 Happy Freedom Friday! 🌟 Today, let's talk about being the change you want to see in the world. 🌍💫 For me, that means diving headfirst into research related to decolonizing therapy. This newfound passion isn't just about personal growth—it's about challenging the status quo and reshaping the landscape of mental health care. By exploring decolonizing therapy, I'm committed to dismantling oppressive systems and fostering inclusivity and equity in our communities. This journey feels a bit daunting, but it has been so rewarding so far... and this is just the beginning! 🌱💬 Remember, change starts from within. Each of us has the power to make a difference, whether it's through advocacy, education, or simply leading by example. Let's embrace our ability to create positive change and strive to leave the world a little better than we found it. Think about it... how are you being the change that you want to see in the world? ✊💖 #FreedomFriday #BeTheChange #DecolonizeTherapy

Dear Mothers, This Sunday is Mother's Day, and there is nothing quite like setting the tone for this day by letting a key family member know what would be meaningful to you. If you feel that surprise is overrated and might eventuate in little to nothing by way of acknowledgement, practice asking for one of these (very realistic and uncomplicated) suggestions and make them your own. When we are able to set our own (realistic) expectations and make a clear request, our families have a fair chance of meeting them. We also create habits and rituals that build appreciation over time. We celebrate in ways that are personally meaningful, rather than taking our cues from social comparisons or advertising. And we protect our hearts from disappointment and resentment. We are allowed to ask for what we want, and hold a (realistic) expectation for our family that our request be honoured. What are you going to ask for this Mother’s Day? If you need help with clear communication or family relationships, a psychologist can offer personalised, therapeutic support.

What an amazing month, Team! June has been truly impressive for us at Ergeon. We accomplished so many great things, and three activities, in particular, stand out for their impact and the new perspectives they brought to us: 1. Fitness Challenge 🏃♂️💪: Our Ergeoneers embraced a fitness challenge, competing for exciting cash prizes. This not only motivated us to stay active but also fostered a spirit of healthy competition and camaraderie. 2. Juneteenth Celebration 🎉🇺🇸: For the first time, we raised awareness about Juneteenth, a significant event that holds deep meaning, especially in the United States. 3. Father's Day and Men's Mental Health Month 👨👧👦🧠: We celebrated Father's Day while also creating awareness around Men's Mental Health Month. This initiative was incredibly eye-opening, as many of us were unaware of the importance of this month. What were some of your first times with your team? 🌟

FALLING INTO EACH OTHERS ARMS Interconnectedness can be so messy...but it sure is real. We are heading into the most important election season of my lifetime here in the US of A, and the atmosphere is very charged with the vastness of what is at stake. We can't know or control outcomes that are collectively created. Moment by moment, therefore, our intentions matter. Our intentions towards ourselves and each other, person to person, person to animal, person to tree, person to earth. Here is one way that you can clarify your own intentions this week. Look to where your friends or clients have encouraged you. I'm happy to say that soon my YouTube channel will hit 6000 subscribers, and I take that as a sign that what I'm doing is helping people develop a better relationship with their bodies. I've grounded myself in that intentionally today. Encouragement is so needed when times are chaotic! If someone has made your life even marginally better, I think it's worth mentioning to them so they can keep heading in the right direction. If you can, reach out to someone who has made a difference in your life and let them know.   And...   Ask yourself - will my conscious intentions remain important to me, regardless of external events?    Will I be challenged to stay true to them?   Will I need to be creative and find ways to realize my intentions in the shifting sands of reality?   Yes you will. Especially if kindness is important to you, even when you are too upset to remember that. If you rely on your practice, whatever that is, kindness will always return.   I hope that what you read here over time helps you identify and stay true to yourself and what is most important to you. Take the best of care this week. Painting by Tsherin Sherpa: https://lnkd.in/gidS6dgH #mentalhealth #psychology #education

🍀 This St. Patrick's Day, let's embark on a journey of meaningful celebration. As behavioral health professionals, we understand the complexities surrounding alcohol consumption and its impact on mental well-being. That's why this year, we're advocating for a Sober St. Patrick's Day—a time to honor our health and happiness without the need for alcohol. This isn't just about abstaining from drinks; it's about embracing a new perspective on celebration. Let's redefine what it means to have fun and connect with others. Instead of relying on alcohol to fuel our festivities, let's focus on genuine connections, engaging activities, and moments of self-discovery. Whether it's gathering with loved ones for a sober game night, indulging in outdoor adventures, or simply taking time for introspection and self-care, let's use this St. Patrick's Day as an opportunity for growth and renewal. By choosing sobriety, we're not only prioritizing our own well-being but also setting a positive example for those around us. So, here's to a St. Patrick's Day filled with clarity, connection, and a deep appreciation for the richness of life. #SoberStPatricksDay #BehavioralHealth #CelebrateMindfully
