With the beginning of a new year just around the corner, be careful with creating unrealistic goals or expectations for yourself. It's always better to create smaller, more attainable milestones. Find ways to celebrate your achievements, big and small!

Taking a deep breath in is actually linked to the sympathetic nervous system, which controls the fight-or-flight response. But exhaling is linked to the parasympathetic nervous system, which influences our body’s ability to relax and calm down. Relax and try this breathing exercise. #normalizetherapy, #mentalhealth, #mentalhealthawareness, #anxiety, #selfcare, #depression, #selflove, #love, #health, #wellness, #mentalhealthmatters, #motivation, #therapy, #mentalillness, #mindfulness, #healing, #psychology, #recovery, #wellbeing, #ptsd, #life, #loveyourself, #meditation, #inspiration, #positivevibes, #positivity, #happiness, #quotes, #bbhhcares,

Educating ourselves and others about mental health and substance abuse issues is the best way to break the stigma that surrounds them. There is a lot of misunderstanding and that makes it harder for people to ask for the help. If you think a friend or a loved one might be struggling, or if they tell you that they are, start with empathy and be a friend. Help them get help.
