Perhaps, with the advent of the pandemic, this is THE year that we stop setting New Year resolutions that set us up for failure and challenge our mental health and, instead, consider the only intention that will support lasting health, mind, body and spirit – self-acceptance. When we can truly accept ourselves, both our light and […]
On-site/In-person Community Gathering Practice Tips We understand that, during this transitional time, some of us are more ready than others to slowly re-enter into the experience of small social gatherings. For this reason, we have created a hybrid service model, where a small number of (no more than 4) participants will be able to join […]

October is Depression and Mental Health Screening Month! One of the many silver linings of this pandemic has been an increased awareness around mental health. It has been a long-held belief of mine that if we spent more time, energy and money on supporting mental health, we would radically improve our health care system by […]
