Have you ever felt exhausted or overwhelmed? Do you get hard on yourself easily and feel you're not living up to your own potential? Perhaps you just need a space to release and gather your thoughts. Mental health is vital in our daily lives. When we're on top of it we thrive. When we're not, we try to survive. Often parts of ourselves are in conflict with each other - "should I protect others or protect myself?"; "how can I be both gay and Christian?"; "I'm so mad at myself for getting mad!"; "I know I'm trying, but it's still not enough!". Learning to navigate these internal conflicts is key to being your healthiest possible self!
