Many of us may feel the New Years pressure, from ourselves or others, to achieve every goal and new habit all at once. While goals are a wonderful thing to embrace in life, remember to also embrace balance and patience!

With balance, we understand that our well-being and overall sense of resilience includes trade-tradeoffs; every habit comes with pros and cons, it's up to us to decide what is ultimately best for us. Cutting out all your coping strategies immediately will likely result in an unsustainable level of stress. Leading us to the other important factor, patience! Real, lasting change takes time.

Prioritizing self care during the holidays can be quite a challenge. For some, it can also feel selfish at a time defined by the spirit of giving. But this is an important reminder that our individual and collective resilience, our health and wellness, is highly shared and interrelated. When one of us prioritizes self care, many others will likely benefit. Just as well, when one of us takes far more than gives, those resources are drained from others.

The holiday season is a great opportunity to put this awareness into practice. To do our best not to judge those who are less fortunate. To share our resilience resources without overextending ourselves. To practice methods of self care without shame, in the spirit of giving and cultivating a connected environment for those around us.

Wishing all a safe and meaningful holiday from Novah Healthcare!

What is grounding? How can we learn this skill? Although this word is often misused in terms of forcing calm, positive emotions during times of stress — Grounding is actually about learning how to connect your body and mind back into physical, temporal reality. Here and now. Using our 5 senses.

Rather than forcing a sense of safety and calm during moments of legitimate threat — grounding helps us feel safe when we are triggered in moments that are actually non-threatening.

By learning how to ground yourself, by learning how to be more aware of and present in our daily experiences, we unlock vast potential in learning how to healthily respond to what troubles us VS constant reactivity.

We are often told to "just let go" and be happy... but HOW? While letting go may sound simple, it is often very confusing to know how, and difficult to actually do it. What are the mechanisms involved in the act of letting go? These are skills that CAN be taught and learned.

At Novah Healthcare, we focus on understanding these mechanisms so that you can develop those skills and build resilience. We want you to live a life not limited by your pain.

If we were to think of life and resilience as a game, using a round of poker as our analogy — your internal resilience resources would be your hand of cards, (purpose, beliefs, flexibility, openness, etc). Your external resources would be your stack of chips, (finances, support, community, etc). And the environment that affects your capacity to be resilient, to utilize these resources well, would be the community cards.

The question is... are you optimizing these resources? It can be all too easy to forget or neglect the things which support our resilience in life, internal and external. At Novah Healthcare, we help you identify them, learn the skills to optimize them, and how to apply them in your own life in a way that's unique and meaningful to YOU.

Trust in one of your deepest strengths of all: to be present, to be wakeful.

At Novah Healthcare, we redefine what it means to be resilient as "conscious resilience." Not just grit or perseverance or attitude or force — but a learned and developed skill through which we can observe ourselves and the world around us.

With awareness, we can begin to identify that which makes us resilient, and that which makes us vulnerable. We can begin to choose what matters most to us, what deepens our quality of life.

Without this kind of awareness, we are merely pushing our way through life, denying ourselves meaningful experiences, and likely becoming reactive against all the signs and messages our body is trying to send us.
