Sometimes your brain doesn’t need more advice, another podcast, or complete silence. Sometimes it just needs a different sound.

The right sounds can give your brain something gentle and predictable to focus on — helping you slow down, settle, and take a little break from the noise of the day.

And here's the important part: there isn't one "right" relaxing sound.

Some people love rain. Others find it annoying. Some people relax with ocean waves, while someone else might find the sound of a busy café strangely comforting.

Pay attention to what your brain likes.

Try putting on one calming sound while you're getting ready for bed, taking a break, driving, reading, or simply sitting for a few minutes.

Sometimes creating a little more calm isn't about making the world completely quiet — it's about giving your brain something soothing to listen to. 💛

The people we spend time with don't just give us companionship - they show us things about ourselves. Healthy relationships aren't necessarily the ones where we never get triggered, disappointed or hurt. Sometimes, they are the relationships that give us enough safety to notice what those experiences are teaching us.

There’s a beautiful concept (originally from David E Morse) called The Mirror, The Window and The Door.

🪞 The Mirror
In a relationship, sometimes the other person reflects something back to us that we need to see. Maybe they bring out our impatience. Our need for control. Our fear of rejection. Our tendency to shut down or people-please. Or even our capacity for kindness, playfulness and love.

It doesn't mean they caused it. It means the relationship may be showing us something that was already there, in us (from wounds or earlier life experiences that made us resilient).

🪟 The Window
Relationships can also become windows into another person's world. Someone we love may help us see things differently. Their experiences, feelings, needs and perspectives can expand our understanding of ourselves and other people. It can show us what's possible!

🚪 The Door
And then there are the moments when a relationship gives us an opportunity to step into something new - to grow into a healthier version of who we are. To communicate differently. To become more vulnerable. To set a healthier boundary. To repair after hurting someone. To let go of an old pattern. To become a little more emotionally honest.

The mirror helps us see ourselves as we are now.
The window helps us understand the potential of how great we can be.
The door invites us to grow into that image of ourselves that is healthy and happy.

And maybe that's one of the quiet gifts of relationships. They don't just show us who we are. They can help us discover who we're capable of becoming. ❤️

There are some very specific procedures that must be followed (legally) whenever a child/youth shares a disclosure of abuse or neglect. This kind of situation can be quite stressful for the professionals who have to manage the next steps in the disclosure process, especially when they know that Children’s Services, Police Services and the court system are also going to become involved, at least in some capacity.

Join us via Zoom, on Thursday, October 8th - from 12 noon to 2:00pm (MST) - for 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗔𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗕𝘆 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗻 - 𝗔 𝗗𝘂𝘁𝘆 𝗧𝗼 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴.

This educational training session is designed to provide professionals who work with children in any capacity (counsellors/therapists, teachers, librarians, social workers, nurses, doctors, therapists, day care workers, ministerial workers, etc) with an understanding of their appropriate role and the protocols involved when someone under the age of 18 discloses an incident of abuse (physical, sexual, emotional/mental) or neglect.

This Training is being facilitated by Kim Silverthorn BA, RPC, MPCC, CT of Tacit Knowledge. Kim is a therapist with 35 years of experience. She was employed directly by Children Services, and worked in partnership with Police Services, for more than 16 years.

There is a registration fee for this Training ($85.00/person) which can be etransfered to [email protected]. (For groups of 5 or more participants who register together, this fee is $60/person.) The Training is worth 2.0 hours of Continuing Education Credits (as approved by the Canadian Professional Counsellors Association). Certificates will be available upon request, at no additional cost. And a free cheat sheet relating to the steps to take with the Reporting Process will be made available to all participants, after the Training has been completed.

Meaningful relationships start with a simple hello – but how do we make sure those first conversations don’t just fade away?

Join us on Tuesday, October 6th, from 6:00pm to 7:30pm, for a FREE ZOOM Workshop called "Turning Small Talk into Meaningful Conversation". We will be discussing why small talk matters and how it opens the door to genuine connection. We’ll explore the art of initiating conversations and share practical techniques for moving beyond surface-level exchanges. And participants will learn how to transition from small talk to more meaningful “deep talk,” creating authentic connections that last.

This Workshop is being offered in partnership with Leduc County FCSS and is being facilitated by Kim Silverthorn BA, MPCC, CT of Tacit Knowledge. Kim has over 30 years of experience as a therapist, and often works with families/agencies who are trying to effectively address the mental health challenges that exist in their lives.

"Turning Small Talk Into Meaningful Conversation" is open to everyone (18+) who wishes to attend – you do NOT need to be a resident of Leduc to participate.

For more information or to register: follow the links on the poster - if you have difficulties, please contact Kristin at 780-955-6421 or [email protected]

🧠 Not all dopamine is created equal.

Dopamine is part of our brain’s reward system, and we naturally seek out things that give us that little hit of “feel good.”

Some sources of dopamine support us — movement, connection, creativity, accomplishing something meaningful, getting outside.

Others can leave us chasing the next hit without really feeling better — endless scrolling, constant notifications, compulsive shopping, or other quick-fix rewards.

It’s not about avoiding pleasure. It’s about noticing what kind of reward leaves you feeling nourished… and what leaves you needing more. 💛

A little awareness can go a long way.

Join us for this FREE 5 session Mental Wellness Support Program (The Relationship Reset) – offered virtually, through Zoom – Monday evenings, at 6:30pm (MST) – from September 21st to October 26th, inclusive (there will be NO session on October 12th, which is Thanksgiving Monday).

Participants will learn ways to improve communication; resolve conflict in a way that draws both partners closer together; and develop skills that will benefit any intimate connection. (Participants are welcome to attend individually or as a couple.)

This Support Group Program is being facilitated by Kim Silverthorn BA, MPCC, CT of Tacit Knowledge – and is offered in partnership with Beaumont FCSS.

This Support Group Program is available to EVERYONE – you do NOT need to be a Beaumont resident to attend. Participants are welcome to attend all or just some of the sessions, as they are able (different themes will be discussed each night, so you do NOT have to attend every evening to get something helpful out of the experience).

Anxiety has a funny way of turning a “this feels uncomfortable” moment into a false sense of “THIS IS AN EMERGENCY!” 🚨

But not every uncomfortable feeling (physically or emotionally), unanswered text, awkward conversation, mistake you make, or uncertain outcome is actually an emergency.

Sometimes your nervous system is sounding the alarm because something feels urgent — not because it IS urgent. Just because your brain is telling you the situation has to be figured out right away, or managed immediately, does not mean it's the truth.

The next time your brain tells you something cannot wait, try to pause and ask yourself, “Is this actually an emergency, or am I just feeling anxious?” - this can be a surprisingly powerful little reset.

Remember that not every alarm needs an evacuation. 💛

💧 Hydration doesn’t have to mean just water!

One of the four main daily foundations that every human being needs in order to be physically capable, mentally focused and emotionally balanced is water!

Our bodies need fluids to function well, and there are lots of healthy ways to get them — from herbal tea and milk to fruits, vegetables, soups, and good old-fashioned water.

It's surprising how the little things we do to support our physical health can have a bigger impact on how we feel emotionally, too. So grab a glass, fill up your water bottle, or reach for something hydrating — your brain and body will thank you. 💙

Small things count. Especially when we do them consistently.
