Are you trying to improve yourself? If so, congratulations!

Once you make the decision to help yourself, the best way to get started is to pinpoint the specific things you want to work on. In a notebook, starting jotting down ideas of things you’d like to work on. Write down every answer you can think of that completes the following statement:

“I would like to improve or better deal with. . .”

Pinpointing is an ongoing activity. As you start working on your strategies, you may find that you need to further pinpoint what you want to work on, and you may add additional items to your lists.

For help in this pinpointing, reach out to The Coping Counselors today for support:

Are you striving to lose weight? Be realistic when setting your goals for weight loss. Take baby steps and set goals that are achievable. Identify two or three specific goals and write them down on the same piece of paper or the notebook that you wrote your purpose for weight loss. Try this formula: “In (time frame), I am going to ____(activitiy)___ (Ex. “In the next six months, I am going to healthily lose 8 lbs.”)

For help in your weight loss journey and to cope with the feelings that come with that, reach out to The Coping Counselors today for support:

July is National Make a Difference to Children Month, a special time for recognizing both children's immediate needs and future aspirations. You don't have to be a parent to positively impact a child's life and the world they inherit— including supporting their mental health. 🤝

Support the children in your life in the ways you can, whether it's open communication, praising them, or being a good role model. 💜

“Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.”
― Ralph Waldo Emerson
