Combatting Shame for Mental Health Month

Responsive image

May is National Mental Health Awareness Month!

Dr. Brene Brown, author of books “I thought it was just me” and “Daring Greatly” always does a fantastic job of discussing shame and resilience. Many times, individuals experience shame as a result of trauma, harsh or unrealistic family values, misunderstandings, identity, body image or even ignorance about mental health or counseling.

Just like physical health or physical fitness, mental health is important to practice daily!

Most of us can admit we have at one time or another experienced shame. Sometimes, especially if we have multiple shame triggers, it can spiral into depression or other mental health concerns that hinder our ability to achieve our goals and visions for life.

In this short video, Dr. Brene Brown describes the 3 best ways to stop a shame spiral.
