“The way the media focuses on extremes and drama makes it hard to see that we live in a special moment of grand transformation. Of course, there are a wide range of serious issues in our world today that need our attention and action, but everything is not lost and dire. What personally gives me hope is that the opportunity for healing is more widely available than it has ever been.” Young Pueblo — The Healing Generation

As a result, we’re now seeing a shift towards a mental health culture that is more open and inclusive, and a new generation is leading the way in breaking down stigmas and taboos.

“Mental health is like other parts of our health care needs. When our mental health is suffering, it needs attention. If you sprained your ankle, it can be difficult to work, focus on your family or other responsibilities. There isn’t any stigma about getting your ankle treated by a medical professional so that you can get back to your life. We have all gone through a lot living through a pandemic and that impacts our mental health. It takes strength to acknowledge that something doesn’t feel right and ask for help. Seeking professional assistance for evaluation and treatment is crucial to living and enjoying our lives.”

Why we decided to go with Journaling?

Why we decided to go with Journaling?
Journaling is a highly effective tool for managing mental health, and there are several reasons why. First, it encourages self-reflection by helping individuals gain insight into their emotions, behaviors, and patterns of thinking. This self-reflection can be beneficial in identifying triggers for negative thoughts or behaviors, and in developing strategies to manage them. Second, journaling provides a private, non-judgmental outlet for emotions, allowing individuals to process and express difficult emotions in a healthy way. Third, studies have shown that journaling can decrease symptoms of depression and anxiety, and improve overall well-being by reducing the impact of stressors and worries. Finally, by regularly reflecting on challenges and successes, journaling can help individuals build resilience and a sense of self-efficacy.
