We spend so much time connected to our screens. When was the last time we stopped long enough to connect with the people around us?

Dr. Shreya Hessler hosted a Digital Detox Happy Hour at MPA’s convention, where we put our phones down and made room for real conversation, shared moments, and the kind of connection that builds community.

Our phones can keep us connected to the world, but they can also distract us from the people right in front of us. Being present takes intention. Sometimes that means putting the screen away, looking up, and giving someone your undivided attention.

Don’t let being constantly connected keep you from actually connecting.

Thank you to Dr. Shreya Hessler for bringing everyone together and reminding us to be more mindful of our screen time and more intentional about making space for in-person connection! 🙌

❤️ Caring for others is meaningful, but it can also be demanding.

During National Family Caregivers Month, the Maryland Psychological Association reminds caregivers that their own well-being matters, too. Taking breaks, staying connected, and seeking support when needed are important parts of caregiving.

**Supporting caregivers helps strengthen families and communities.**

When was the last time you truly unplugged and took a little time for yourself?

During International Stress Awareness Week, we're reminding you that it's okay to step away, say no, and make room for the people and moments that matter most. 💛

Life is busy, and there's always something else to do. But your well-being deserves a place on your to-do list, too!

🌿 Give yourself permission to pause. You've earned it!

11/04/2026

This International Stress Awareness Week, let's remind ourselves that no one has to face stress alone. Talking openly about our feelings, checking in on friends, and listening without judgment can make a meaningful difference.

Sometimes, the most important conversation starts with "How are you really doing?"

November is National Family Caregivers Month! ❤️

The Maryland Psychological Association recognizes the dedication of family caregivers and the important role they play in supporting the health and well-being of their loved ones. This month, we encourage everyone to recognize, appreciate, and support the caregivers in their lives.

This International Stress Awareness Week, remember that a little movement can go a long way! Whether it's a family walk, a quick stretch, or a few minutes outdoors, physical activity can help reduce stress and boost your mood.
