Navigating the struggle of suicide prevention involves seeking
support from friends, family, and professionals. Finding
helpful tools such as the Embracing Life App (Scan the QR
code in our Ad) or finding other immediate assistance sources
are key to prevention, along with therapy which provides
coping strategies, and staying connected to help combat
isolation. Educate yourself about warning signs, whether it be
for yourself, a loved one, a child in need, create a safety plan,
encourage professional help. Remember, you are NOT alone—
reach out. Prioritize safety, seek help, and work towards a
healthier, more hopeful tomorrow. Embrace life!

With such busy schedules, most people often don’t take enough time for themselves. Negative energy can affect us without our awareness, but if you find yourself more irritable this could be the reason. Journaling 5 positive things that happen each day helps to shift the mind away from the negative. Starting your day with deep breathing/prayer/yoga can help relieve stress and focus the body and mind for the day. Take social media and electronics break – which have been shown to have a negative effect on mood, sleep, and self-esteem. Instead, head outside, go for a walk, enjoy nature by yourself or call a friend to join you for a long overdue visit!

June 15th marks World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, a crucial reminder to protect and respect our elders. Elder abuse can manifest as physical, emotional, or financial harm, often perpetrated by trusted individuals. To combat this, be vigilant: look for signs of neglect, sudden financial changes, or unexplained injuries. Encourage open communication and support networks for seniors. If you suspect abuse, report it to local authorities immediately. Together, we can foster a safer, more compassionate environment for our aging population. Let’s honor and safeguard our elders’ dignity and well-being every day.
