🍂⏰ It's time to fall back!

Before heading to bed Saturday night, remember to turn your clocks back one hour as daylight saving time ends Sunday morning.

Maumee Valley Guidance Center encourages you to use this seasonal change as a reminder to make time for yourself. 💛

☀️ Enjoy some daylight outdoors when you can.
🛏️ Keep a consistent bedtime and wake-up routine.
🤝 Stay connected with people who brighten your day.
🍁 Make room for rest and activities you enjoy.

As you reset your clocks, take a moment to check in with yourself-and someone you care about!

Our Outpatient Therapy Department is wearing a reminder we can all use: Don't Ghost Your Feelings-talk about them. 👻💬

Making space to name and share our feelings can be a meaningful step toward caring for our mental health. Check in with someone you trust, or reach out for support when you need it. You don't have to face difficult feelings alone.

🐱 Happy National Cat Day! 🐾

Our feline friends bring more than cute photos and funny moments into our lives-they can also offer comfort and companionship. 💛

🐾 Quiet connection: Petting or sitting beside a willing cat can offer a calming pause.
🐾 Daily routine: Feeding, grooming, and playtime add structure and a sense of purpose to your day.
🐾 Play and laughter: Their curious personalities can bring moments of joy.
🐾 Being present: Taking a break to enjoy time with your cat can help you focus on the here and now.

📸 Share a photo of your cat in the comments and tell us how they brighten your day!
