🍂 Fall has officially arrived!🍂

As we shift into the fall season, we can look to nature as a beautiful reminder to embrace change and let go. As the leaves change colour and drop their leaves, we too can release what is no longer serving us, and remember that it is ok to slow down and rest.

What is your favourite thing about fall?
Our team loves:
-Crisp autumn air
-Pumpkin Spice Lattes are back
-Sweater weather
-Colourful crunchy leaves
-Walking through the River Valley
-Spooky Season

Tell us your favourite thing about fall in the comments!

Did you know that chronic pain can be linked with unprocessed trauma stored in the body? This can lead to a higher level of stress, causing the nervous system to stay in high alert causing tension and inflammation in the muscles and joints. At the Aspen Wellness Centre, we take a holistic approach to healing. Our team of trauma informed professionals offer healing interventions for the body, mind and spirit. We offer a variety of mental health therapy interventions to help clients heal from emotional trauma. We also have clinicians that specialize in support clients with chronic pain and chronic health issues.

How's your self care game lately?

If you've been feeling tired, stressed or burnt out, it might be an indicator that your self care needs some attention. Consider self care in these 4 categories:
-Physical
-Mental
-Emotional
-Spiritual

See if you can pick an activity to boost self care in one of these areas, and take action. Remember, self care doesn't need to take much time, or cost any money. Here are some easy examples:
-Have a drink of water
-Take 5 slow deep breaths
-Name 3 things you are grateful for
-Stretch your upper body



What is one thing you did for self care today? Tell us in the comments!

☀️ Sober Summer, anyone? Here are the highlights from our recent blog!

For many of us, summer and alcohol naturally go together — patios, camping trips, festivals, lake days, BBQs. But more people are becoming curious about what happens when they cut back on drinking, even temporarily.

A “Sober Summer” doesn’t have to be all-or-nothing. Even reducing alcohol can lead to benefits like:

✨ Better sleep
✨ More energy
✨ Improved mood
✨ Less anxiety
✨ More meaningful social connections
✨ Saving money
✨ Waking up feeling refreshed instead of hungover

One helpful mindset shift?
Say yes to activities that don’t revolve around drinking.

Think:
🌿 River valley walks
☕ Coffee dates
🚲 Bike rides
🎨 Creative hobbies
🏐 Recreational sports
🎶 Outdoor events & markets

Many people discover they feel more present, confident, and connected when alcohol is no longer the centre of every social event.

If social anxiety, stress, burnout, or emotional coping make changing drinking habits feel difficult, support is available. 💛

At the Aspen Wellness Centre in Edmonton, our therapists provide compassionate, trauma-informed mental health support for adults navigating grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, substance use concerns and more. Contact us today to learn more. (link in bio.)

🔍 Do you know how to spot the signs of a Narcissist?

Remember, lots of people may act in ways that are self centred at times, which is normal. Putting yourself first, being assertive and having good boundaries is not the same as being a narcissist.

Narcissistic traits tend to be consistent over time, and across relationships. Many people may have some narcissistic tendencies, without meeting the criteria for Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Being in a relationship with a narcissistic person often leaves you feeling:
-Emotionally drained,
-Overwhelmed
-Confused
-Questioning yourself
-Questioning reality

Over time, it can decrease your self esteem and sense of self. Sometimes these relationships can become emotionally abusive. Keep in mind that this can affect relationships that are romantic, platonic, personal and professional.

If you or someone you love is experiencing relationship challenges with someone who has narcissistic traits, speaking to a trained professional can help you make sense of your experience and create a pathway forward.
