Happy Monday!

Monday! Another week begins! Not sure if it’s an age thing but recently weekends seem to disappear rapidly and before you know it it’s time to return to the office. I recently received confirmation that my trademark has been registered so The Gentle Health Coach is official! It’s exciting and a little tension-inducing. I’ve been dealing with a relapse in my depression and it is HARD to just do the regular 9-5 – never mind trying to add a side hustle.

So I’m trying to put on my health and wellness coach hat and work with myself through it. I’ve reached out and am getting support from a doctor, getting encouragement from loved ones and most importantly practicing being gentle with myself. Considering I named my whole business “The Gentle Health Coach” you might be mistaken for thinking I am a pro at being kind and gentle to myself, but no. I am truly harder on myself than anyone would ever be. But I have learned through years of dealing with mental and physical health issues that gentleness needs to be a core practice for me. It truly does make a difference, and helps you speed through issues that otherwise might keep you stuck.  

Let us hope and practice for a gentle ride through another week! 😊
