Managing Anxiety by Embracing Impermanence
Embracing the mindfulness concept of Impermanence reminds us that all things—good or bad—are temporary. This perspective can help clients manage anxiety, depression, and grief by shifting focus away from permanence and toward acceptance and resilience. Integrating Impermanence into therapy supports healing and deepens emotional awareness.

Trauma Informed Leadership
As work/life balance shifts and trauma impacts all generations, strong leaders are embracing trauma-informed care to boost retention and well-being. Recognizing that replacing staff is costly, they foster safe, empathetic workplaces where employees feel valued. This approach not only supports mental health but also drives productivity, loyalty, and long-term organizational success.
