✨July is Minority Mental Health Month, a time to raise awareness about the unique mental health challenges faced by minority communities. It's important to recognize that cultural, societal, and systemic factors can contribute to disparities in mental health care.

👉Let's use this month to advocate for improved access to mental health resources and support for all individuals, regardless of their background. Together, we can work towards creating a more inclusive and equitable mental health landscape.

The Essence of Inner Peace 😊

✨Amidst the hustle and bustle of modern life, inner peace serves as a sanctuary — a refuge where you can find solace, balance, and tranquility.

👉It is a state of mind that enables you to maintain clarity, focus, and emotional well-being, regardless of external circumstances. The power to protect your peace allows you to remain centered, even when faced with adversity, conflict, or uncertainty. You got this! 🙏

✨How would you define your family values?

👉Values are important because they provide a foundation as a source of protection, guidance, affection, and support. Instilling family values can protect and guide children against making hurtful decisions in the future as they teach a sense of right and wrong.

👉They can add to relationships and influence judgments, behaviors, and parenting styles. Much of what we do and how react to various situations and topics is a result of our values. Values give families an outlook on life, a way to view the world and their situations as well as an identity by helping family members better understand their background.

✨Take a moment to think about does your values align with your actions. If they don't seek small ways to incorporate change. Have a movie marathon. Clean the house together. Bake and decorate cookies. Play board games. Make it so the whole family can be involved.

🫡On this symbolic day, may we celebrate our freedom, salute those who made this possible and keep it safe, and stand in unity as a nation.

👉Healing affirmations can be used any time you want to balance and replace negative thinking with positive thinking so that you can be more prone to encourage, nourish, and receive those positive healing benefits.

✨We act according to our beliefs. If someone tells us there is gold treasure buried under a tree, we might get out our shovel and dig, but otherwise, because we have no reason to think there is gold there, we won’t dig.

👉Too often, we limit our own potential for healing and growth we don’t really believe they are possible. We restrict ourselves consciously, unconsciously, and also on a physical level. Negative beliefs cause stress, which impedes our immune system and depletes our energy.

👉May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a good reminder to focus on the importance of mental health and its impact on our well-being. Mental health conditions can affect anyone, regardless of gender, age, race, ethnicity, or income level.

✨Here are a few ways to practice Mental Health Awareness:

-Practice gratitude: Consider what you’re thankful for – like supportive family and friends, a safe home, or even a beautiful day. Or find something to celebrate, like a recent accomplishment. Consciously practicing gratitude may reduce feelings of stress and anxiety.

-Volunteer: Participating in community organizations and finding opportunities to help others can provide a positive boost and a sense of purpose.

-Engage in random acts of kindness: Buy a cup of coffee for the person in line behind you, hold the door open for a stranger, or make food for a neighbor or colleague.

👉Need additional support check out our wellness event in celebration of Mental Health Awareness Month.

🙏🏾 As humans, it is natural to want to feel control. Whether that is control of your relationship, your job, your routine, your lifestyle, or interactions with others… sometimes we have to accept that we aren’t in control. 

👉🏾It is okay not to be in control. But, when you are feeling out of control, it is important to think about: 

-My expectations and responses 

-When I ask for help

-My boundaries 

-Who/Where I give my energy 

-Listen to what your body wants and needs

4 Signs of Overthinking 💭

Sometimes it’s hard to know if you’re experiencing normal stress or something more. Look for these signs of overthinking:

1. Disrupted sleep: Those stuck in a ruminative loop may find it difficult to shut off their brains at bedtime. Additionally, these thoughts might cause a person to wake up in the middle of the night and have trouble falling back asleep.

2. Indecision: Overthinking involves repetitive thoughts, which can lead a person to feel overwhelmed when they need to make decisions. Even when a person finally reaches a decision, they may second-guess themselves, compounding their stress levels.

3. Problem-solving difficulties: An overthinking person will imagine and often catastrophize every possible outcome of a stressful situation, hampering their ability to come up with productive solutions.

4. Repetitive thoughts: A hallmark of overthinking is thinking, worrying, or ruminating about the same few stressful thoughts on a loop.

🤔Have you considered speaking with a therapist?

Therapy can help build your self-identity and create stronger foundations to enable you to live life now – rather than overthinking a worrying future.
