No matter what you’re going through, create some new positive memories this holiday season

How are you feeling this holiday season?  

Sometimes this time of year can be difficult. 

If you are dealing with challenges associated with your teen or young adult having mental illness or addiction, or you’re dealing with a loss of a child or a loss of how your child was before illness, I know holidays can be stressful, overwhelming, or sad. 

You are not alone and I have been there too. And this year I feel the sadness associated with the loss of my son.

No matter what you’re going through, create some new positive memories this holiday season.

When you create new positive associations, you help your mind and body connect new patterns which can over time create new ways of thinking about and feeling about this time of year.

So create a brand new tradition, take a vacation, change how you spend the holiday, or anything else different that will create a new positive experience.

Sending love and light,
