Emotional Health
Emotional Health is as important as physical health but we often overlook it or ignore it.  

Remember good emotional health does not mean you are always happy, it just means you have good coping strategies when life gets tough.

What are some ways to improve emotional health?

Good coping strategies when you are feeling overwhelmed such as:
  1. journaling
  2. meditation
  3. talking to a therapist
  4. listening to music
I also find that praying helps.  I try to say a daily Rosary, faith for me is an important part of my life.  Without it I am not sure I could cope, especially during times of stress.

Exercise will help you to relax and it improves your mood.  Set aside some time everyday to get outside and enjoy nature.  Take a hike or a walk.  Enjoy the fresh air.  You will also be getting Vitamin D which helps improve overall wellness.

Get connected with friends.  Right now that can be challenging I know.  Have you tried connecting online if you can't meet in person?  I love zoom, you can see one another and enjoy a fun visit without leaving your home!

Get good quality sleep.  Have you ever noticed when you are lacking sleep you seem to be more emotional?  Here is a previous blog post I wrote on ideas to help you sleep.  

Laugh everyday!  Laughter reduces the level of stress hormones like cortisol, epinephrine, and dopamine.  It also increases the level of health enhancing hormones like endorphins. This means fewer physical effects of stress. 

Don't forget to focus on emotional health.  It is an important part of our overall health!  

Blessings,
Anna

🌿 My Story: From Frustrated Mom to Natural Solutions

There was a time when life felt a lot harder than it needed to be.
I was doing my best to care for my growing family—but when it came to the everyday bumps, bruises, sniffles, and sleepless nights, I felt stuck. Everything I was told to keep “on hand” didn’t sit right with me. I hated relying on over-the-counter medications that only masked symptoms, especially for my little ones.
Then came the allergies.
One of my daughters struggled every spring, and my mama heart knew—there had to be a better way.
During one of those heart-to-hearts with my niece, she told me about a natural product that changed everything for her. I was intrigued, but I waited... for almost a year. I guess I was skeptical, or maybe just overwhelmed.
But that next spring? Her allergies hit hard. I was tired of the cycle.
So I took the leap—and I’m so glad I did.
What started as a simple step turned into a lifestyle shift. The products worked. No more allergy meds. Fewer sick days. More energy. And as I kept learning, I found even more ways to support my family naturally—from seasonal sniffles to emotional stress, and even hormone balance for me as I navigated perimenopause.
Now, instead of feeling helpless, I feel empowered.
And our family is stronger—and healthier—because of it.
If you’re longing for that kind of peace too, I’d love to walk this path with you.
Come learn with me—one simple, natural step at a time.
