There are probably hundreds of articles available about how to help someone you care about who is grieving. Hey look, here are one, two, three good ones! That was easy to find! I probably don’t need to write one more. But, this week has been an odd one, and somehow I’ve had a number of […]
In addition to writing this blog, I get to manage the Life Skills Resource Group Facebook and Twitter pages. This is a lot of fun, because it involves looking for materials which others would enjoy or benefit from. I get to look at lots of inspirational and philosophical messages and read lots of articles, trying […]
Yesterday I took the day off of work. I wasn’t sick, I just needed some time with me – some time to think – some time to process– some time to recharge – and really, some time to grieve. So I took some time to take care of myself. Self care. Relaxation. These are things I’ve […]
This week I had a great conversation with Mona. We were talking about the power of actually doing those things you have been wanting to do – how wonderful it feels. I told her that I was feeling great because the night before I had gone to the gym after class, and I had really […]

I read about feeling grateful on birthdays, how birthdays can motivate us, how we can get “the birthday blues“, and making birthday wishes. I read commentary on how our […]
You might have noticed that May is Mental Health Month. Mental Health America chose this year’s theme, which is wellness. I feel like wellness is a word we frequently use, but don’t frequently think about. So, let’s stop and think about it. What is wellness? What does it mean to you? What do you feel […]
Hello, my name is Dr. Melissa Rojas and I am very excited to announce that I am a new bilingual provider at Life Skills Resource Group. I feel joy and honored to have the opportunity to be part of such an amazing group. After meeting Cindy and Amy only once, I quickly realized the authenticity […]
I feel I would be remiss if I didn’t address the events in Boston in this week’s blog, and yet I’m concerned that we’re all a little overloaded with news, and maybe it would be better to take a step back. I don’t know what is best. But I do know this: as a human […]
