Mental Health Tips for the Holiday Season

Your thoughts are not fact!
“Ever notice how anxious thoughts seem to sneak in as ‘what-ifs’ and worst-case scenarios, all wrapped up in an urgency that makes them feel true? Anxiety can trick us into believing every worry as if it’s fact. But here’s the thing: not all thoughts are truths. Just because your mind serves up a worry doesn’t mean you have to buy into it.

By learning to focus on thoughts that actually serve your well-being, you can start creating a more peaceful, balanced mindset. Ready to give it a try?”
