It's the start of your week, so here's a quick rem It's the start of your week, so here's a quick reminder on #mindfulmonday to practice staying in the moment! Breathe in, notice the air in your lungs, and then let it all out. 😮‍💨 Even 2 minutes of mindful breathing (That's about 12 breaths) can have a huge impact on your mental health - it reduces anxiety, improves your mood, balances your nervous system and even helps you think more clearly!

So pause - breathe - and then go kick butt this week! 💪

The unseen burden we are all carrying right now can have a huge impact on our health and wellness, and we can't ignore that! Be mindful when setting your goals this week to leave space for rest; we all deserve it!

Come rain or snow, your social worker is out there Come rain or snow, your social worker is out there! Many social workers or helping professionals have 'mobile offices' like my rolling file box here. We work out in your community, bringing services to you no matter the weather. I've known many a counselor who could run their business pretty much from the trunk of their car based on all the extra resources, supplies and text books filling their trunks and back seats. 
This is just one look at the daily life of a therapist and all the many roles we play. 
What's your experience with working outside of a regular office? How do you manage to stay organized despite it all?
