Making the Most of Your Time (Giveaway details at end of post)

Hello everyone! I hope this weekend is treating you well. So I'm sitting at home on a Saturday not really bored but not really motivated to do anything. Why waste the day?? Well, I guess I'm wasting the day because I really don't have the energy or motivation to get up and do anything, I have already accomplished everything on my to do list for the day although it was a very short to do list. Then it hit me I didn't plan my day well enough!
As a counselor I tell my clients on an almost daily basis how important scheduling is, schedule so that you'll have already planned out the things you need to accomplish so you can roll from one task to another. I guess I need a dose of my own medicine because I am so guilty of not planning my weekends well enough. Today I had to get up and take one child to practice, run an errand with my father and last on my list I needed to create new chore and behavior charts for my children. After that I did not plan a single thing! And as a result I have been doing almost nothing *sad face* I just looked at the clock and realize how much time I have wasted. 
Have you ever had that feeling that you know there something you need to or could be doing, but you just don't know what it is well scheduling and planning could fix that for all of us. I know what you're thinking schedule out every moment schedule every day of my life well it doesn't have to be a rigid schedule but if we're mindful of things that can be placed during certain time slot then were less likely to waste as much time. This is coming from someone who has 1 billion things to do a day and rarely has a moment to herself. So yes that means scheduled the fun activities too put it on your calendar make a list that you can scratch off once it's completed. I could have done so many things for myself today or fun activities today but instead I let myself get caught up scrolling through Facebook. Yes Facebook is relaxing at times, but I could have done a craft or  have written another blog, I could have created another video or worked on an ebook. 
Long and short let's be productive when we can and maximize our time in 2016 and beyond!

Silent Killer

From my heart... Being a mental health professional I hear people talk about depression and mental illness all day everyday. I read the statistics and reports about the "system" failing individuals quite frequently, But, when tragedy hits close to home it can be a LOUD  wake-up call! It's hard for me to understand the fact that mental illness is still a taboo thing. I personally don't understand why it's not a more discussed topic, why there aren't enough resources and access to treatment. Here in the US we have option after option for physical healthcare. If you don't like a physician for whatever reason all you have to do is walk across the hall or drive across the street and there are at least 10 more for the choosing. Why aren't there just as many easy options for mental healthcare treatment?  These day there is a checklist for "warning signs" for every ailment out there and I want to be sure that depression warning signs are top of mind...
