Therapist Approved Transitions

 


We live in a world where it feels like we’re not allowed to slow down.

Do you remember commercial breaks, waiting for a show to come back on, or scrolling, not even being an option?

We didn’t realize it then, but those moments forced us to pause.
They gave our minds a chance to rest and reconnect with the present. 🌿

Now, every quiet moment gets filled with noise, notifications, tasks, constant input, and our nervous systems never really get to exhale.

That’s why transitions matter. They’re not wasted time; they’re how we regulate, reset, and return to ourselves.

Here are a few therapist-approved transitions to bring back into your day:
☀️ Morning Pause — start your day in stillness before the world starts talking.
💧 Reset Rituals — wash your hands, light a candle, or change clothes to mark a shift.
🌿 Pausing in Conversation — breathe before you respond; it builds connection and calm.
📱 Turning Off Notifications — give your brain space to focus and your body permission to relax.
☁️ Stepping Outside — a minute of fresh air can reset your whole nervous system.
🕰 Unscheduled Time — give yourself space to exist without producing or performing.

You don’t need more time, just more present moments.
Your body will thank you for the pause. 💛

LGBT Therapy in Richmond

LGBT Pride Month, observed in June, is celebrated around the U.S. with parades and activism events. At the same time, many people do not know Pride Month’s origin, which honors the 1969 Stonewall riots — a demonstration which blazed the trail for activists across the country. In 1970, the first Gay Pride marches took place in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. There has been a lot of progress since then, but LGBT advocates are still working toward a future without discrimination in the workplace and beyond. Here are some powerful quotes from changemakers who are have contributed to the movement for LGBT equality: “Openness may not completely disarm prejudice, but it’s a good place to start.” — Jason Collins, first openly gay athlete in U.S. pro sports “When all Americans are treated as equal, no matter who they are or whom they love, we are all more free.” — Barack Obama If you need support, contact us today for therapy in   Berkeley and Richmond www.lifebyde...
