Spring has sprung and aside from some runny noses and daily Claritin, people often see spring as the season of renewal and hope. With blooming flowers, longer days and warmer weather, it is easier to feel more energized and inspired.🌷🦋

Many associate spring with “spring cleaning” and use this as a time to declutter and reset— So, what would it be like to declutter and reset mentally?

As nature blossoms, we have the chance to align with its rhythm and explore the opportunities for growth in our own lives by shedding old habits and allowing new ones to bud.

How do we start this? Start with reflection. Ask yourself:

How have you already grown in the past year?
Give yourself credit for the growth you have already done! You deserve it and this will likely motivate you to continue to move forward.

What areas of your life are you proud of? Where do you hope to grow in this upcoming season?
Lead with compassion and empowerment while you allow yourself to imagine growth in your life.

What habits and routines have helped you achieve goals thus far?
You do not have to start from scratch. Acknowledge what is already working for you! You can build from here by finding new ways to add these helpful habits in your life with intension.

What support do I need?
Whether it is friends, family or resources, knowing what you need can make a big difference. Please never be afraid to ask for help.

I know there can be a hundred reasons that you might convince yourself to hold off on therapy:
“Not enough time”
“Too much money”
“I don’t like to talk about my feelings”
“This is just how I am”
“I have friends, what do I need a therapist for?”

If any of these sound like you, please know that I understand. However, the numbers you see in this post are true! Therapy DOES help, significantly, for most people.

Ask yourself, what would things be like if therapy helped you?
