Try something new to improve your mental health photo of woman making pottery

Feeling overwhelmed? Some definitions include: “completely submerged”; “feeling frozen, lost, or paralyzed”; or my favorite: “simultaneously exhausted and dejected”.  Ouch. Sound familiar? The synonyms to ‘overwhelmed’ probably resonate with most of us, too: feeling beaten, crushed, devastated, disheartened, or humbled. There’s not a perfect word to describe this condition, so let’s just call it having […]
There was a time when calm came to us on its own. In fact, calm was our natural and prevalent state of mind. In prehistoric times a surge of adrenalin, our biological fight or flight response, struck only when a true emergency was at hand. A wild animal chasing us, for example. Or wicked weather, […]
Most of my days are shaped by the many chores, errands and tasks that appear on my to-do list. It’s overwhelming, in fact, how many things there are to remember, keep track of, and find the energy to do. But it’s a great feeling when we get to check things off the list, isn’t it? […]
We make decisions every day, from what we’re going to wear to how to approach a complex task at work. Decisions are a normal part of everyday life.

Does it seem harder than ever to make decisions? Not just the complicated stuff. Easy stuff, too. What to cook for dinner. What to do first in the morning. Whether or not to go to the gym. There’s a reason for this. It’s called decision fatigue. What Is Decision Fatigue? As the name implies, decision […]
Many of us fear change and try to avoid it at all costs.  New ideas make us nervous.  We push back on suggestions to do things differently.  Shifts to our routine make us uncomfortable. But it’s constant, there’s no getting away from it. It makes sense to try to make the best of it. To not […]
Stress is all around us. Three in four Americans report experiencing at least one stress symptom every week. It’s become a part of our everyday lives and even accepted as a necessary evil.  We all know that stress can be dangerous to our health and happiness.
