Did you know that it's estimated that social worke Did you know that it's estimated that social workers represent the largest portion of mental health service providers? There are more social workers than psychologists, psychiatrists and psychiatric nurses combined! ..

Today is Canada Day, and this year it is a time of Today is Canada Day, and this year it is a time of both pride and despair, regret and celebration. We are acknowledging a dark history of our beloved country and doing so within an international pandemic where hope can feel hard to come by. No matter how you need to commemorate July 1st this year I invite you to hold space for each other. To recognize that this generation may not be responsible for what has happened within the Residential Schools of our past, but we have a new responsibility to never allow this to happen again. That you may not have caused the pain and trauma but you can be active today in validating the experience of those still suffering and pledge to stand with them in their journey forward. Be kind, be aware, be respectful, and as a nation, let us be better. 🍁🧑

Sometimes feels like you barely get a breath before the next wave of stress is taking you over. I haven't had the strength to clean, or tidy, or do any of the projects needed around the house and it's hard not to get down on yourself about it all.

Even taking half a second to look up and spy that perfect moon in the evening sky can be enough of a reminder that there's gratitudes everywhere when you look for them.

Self care can be such a buzz word, synonymous with Self care can be such a buzz word, synonymous with bath bombs and face masks. But when we care for ourselves or others, it is sometime about doing the hard work - we don't always find the acts of caring easy or pleasant!
..
When your mother made you eat your vegetables, go to the dentist, clean your room, or teach you right from wrong, you didn't always enjoy it but you knew she was doing it out of caring. Setting goals for yourself and achieving them may take perseverance but you'll feel how much you are loved (by yourself!) when that hard work pays off!

Wearing a bracelet, charm, band or a watch can sometimes help! This is just a small collection of the jewelry I wear on a regular basis that helps calm those little nervous movements I get caught in, especially while waiting. A beaded bracelet like those shown can be spun, counted, or rubbed to keep your hands busy. Some even have lava stones for use with essential oils that can offer great benefit for aromatherapy!
.
Or even a bracelet with an encouraging message can be a reminder to catch yourself and make a change!

Note the second set of slices, cooking once I realized I had abandoned my snack from 2 hours previous and was attempting to eat again.

This is the life of the easily distracted, the constantly multitasking, the mentally divided. Can you relate to that sort of day? Starting one task and then getting side tracked and forgetting entirely where you started?
.
Somedays I feel like I have 30 tabs open in my internet browser and my brain! 🧠
.
Human beings are awful at multitasking and yet we strive for that all the time.
.
Reminder to do one thing at a time and take care of your own needs. You'll probably burn less toast that way πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸžπŸ”₯ #mentalhealthmama #mentalhealth #easilydistracted #mindfulness #adhd #attentiondefecitdisorder #multitasking #multitaskingproblems
