One of the greatest measures of our quality of life is our ability to have proactive control of our health and well-being.

Sometimes we all need a bit of support along our journey to living well.

Occupational Therapy is often associated with workplace health issues such as returning to work after an injury or improving worksite ergonomic systems.

Occupational Therapists also help individuals focus on improving their ability to participate in activities of daily living by focusing on all of the ways they meaningfully, and independently occupy their time.

Happy Holidays!!!

The new year brings new chances to set and achieve goals, explore and prioritize aspects of our lives, and declare resolutions for lifestyle changes.

The most common goals each year focus on health and well-being, with many falling under the umbrella of "getting in shape" or "losing weight."

According to a Statista poll, the most popular New Year's resolutions in the US for 2025 are to save more money (21%), exercise more (17%) and eat healthier (19%).

Regardless of the specifics of our goals, as the ball drops on New Year's Eve, millions deliberately focus on creating lasting lifestyle change.

But how do we start fresh and become a better, healthier, and happier version of ourselves?

WE ARE BACK!!!

The holiday season is a time for family, faith, food, giving, and stress.

It is a wonderful time of year for experiencing a wide range of emotions.

Emotions are a natural part of the human experience. These complex reactions that involve feelings, behaviors, and physiological changes impact almost every aspect of our existence.

The National Center for Emotional Wellness defines emotional wellness as "an awareness, understanding, and acceptance of our feelings, and our ability to manage effectively through challenges and change."

Understanding emotions can help us unlock our true potential, live our best lives more consistently…and enjoy our holiday season to its fullest.
