Love in the New Year
Of all the emotions, love has enough power to make even the most difficult emotions somehow feel a lot better. It is an incredible tool for building trust in relationships with those around us.
Love is listed as one of the 10 Common Positive Emotions Beyond Happiness by Verywell Mind:
1. Joy
2. Gratitude
3. “Authentic” Pride
4. Serenity
5. Interest
6. Amusement
7. Hope
8. Inspiration
9. Awe
10. Love
It is our wish for you, that you have every single one of these, now and always.
Wishing you a lovely end to 2023, and a very happy new year.
January 23 is Maternal Health Awareness Day
Maternal Health Awareness Day is a day to raise awareness about maternal health, educate health care providers about maternal mortality, and encourage birthing people, families and providers to recognize and discuss potential signs of an emergency. Access to maternal health care has increasingly become unobtainable for many patients in the United States. Want to help? Click here to learn more.
