Self-care is about listening to what your mind and body need. Check out these science-based self-care ideas to create a better self-care routine.
Staying Active, Staying Well
Physical activity is often associated with keeping our bodies healthy and fit, but did you know that it can also have a profound impact on our mental well-being?

Upcoming Trainings
Helping Others Starts With Helping Ourselves
Join us for an online training designed for Helping Professionals.
Every day, Helpers show up to support patients, clients, friends, family, and their neighbors. But what happens when stress and emotional fatigue become overwhelming? Burnout doesn’t just impact individuals - it affects entire teams and communities.
This session explores:
✅ The history and impact of burnout in helping professions.
✅ The early warning signs of burnout
✅ Team strategies to prevent burnout
✅ Approaches to burnout prevention and recovery
Outcomes:
Participants will increase their understanding of burnout, gain awareness of the effects of burnout, and be knowledgeable about the steps to prevent and manage burnout.
This training will be hosted on Zoom. After you have purchased your ticket our team will send you a link to the email associated with your purchase.
Many of us have had Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) in the past, but they do not have to be our destiny.
Mezzo Solution's Positive and Adverse Childhood Experiences (PACEs) Workshop is not your typical ACEs presentation. Participants increase their understanding of research about PACEs and how they work together to impact our lives and our organizations, systems, and communities.
Outcomes:
Participants leave with concrete actions they can take to improve the lives of those around them, with an invitation to join a broader community conversation to make an impact.
This training will be hosted on Zoom. After you have purchased your ticket our team will send you a link to the email associated with your purchase.

You did not choose this work expecting it to be easy. Compassion fatigue, occupational stress, and burnout are not signs that you are doing it wrong — they are signs that you are human, doing extraordinarily demanding work without enough tools to sustain it.
This 2-hour live virtual training introduces Mindfulness-Based Stress Management (MBSM): a skills-focused, evidence-informed approach developed specifically to help professionals in high-demand fields actively manage occupational stress — not simply reduce it.
MBSM extends that foundation with a professional orientation: it is built on the premise that stress will continue to show up in your work — with your clients, your caseload, and your system. What changes is your relationship to it and your capacity to navigate it with skill, awareness, and intention.
Research on mindfulness training in healthcare and helping professions demonstrates improvements in occupational stress, emotional reactivity, compassion fatigue, and therapeutic presence. In this session, we bring that evidence to life.
You will learn the neuroscience behind stress and mindfulness, engage in facilitated practice, and leave with a practical management framework and curated resources you can use starting today — from home, your office, or wherever you join us on Zoom.
What You Will Learn
The key distinction between stress reduction and stress management — and why it matters for helping professionals
The neuroscience of occupational stress: how chronic exposure affects the brain, body, and clinical performance
The evidence base for mindfulness-based interventions in healthcare and social service settings
Core mindfulness practices adapted for professional use: breath awareness, body scan, and open observation
