Wellness is an all the time practice! Here are some quick tips to help work on your wellness, even in the office!

Improving workplace wellness involves small, daily habits and supportive company practices that reduce stress and boost energy.

Daily Personal Habits
- Move often: Stand up, stretch, or walk around for a few minutes every hour to ease muscle tension.
- Stay hydrated: Keep a water bottle at your desk and sip water throughout the day to maintain focus and energy.
- Rest your eyes: Follow the 20-20-20 rule by looking at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes of screen time.
- Take real lunches: Step away from your workspace to eat your lunch and enjoy true mental downtime.
- Practice mindfulness: Take short, five-minute breaks for deep breathing or meditation to calm your mind.

Sunday we were honored to share time and space with all those who attended the AFSP’s Out of Darkness Walk. Each year we can see the impact and connection fostered at this event. Feeling connection and knowing others have been in similar situations helps honor our loved ones and ourselves.

Paul Battles, a trusted CJK provider from Artistic Healing, shared this about the increased demands of seeking mental health care.

"During the last several years of working as a therapist in private practice, I have seen an increasing number of clients forced to choose between receiving the mental health care they need and meeting the financial demands of everyday life. Rising insurance premiums have led more people to enroll in high-deductible plans, requiring them to pay substantial out-of-pocket costs before their insurance coverage begins. For others, increasing co-pays have created an additional financial burden that can make ongoing treatment difficult to afford.

When clients are unable to manage these costs, they often have no choice but to discontinue therapy, even when continued treatment is clinically important. At times, I have chosen to continue providing treatment at no cost for a period of time so that financial hardship does not result in an interruption of care. While this allows clients to maintain access to needed treatment, it is not a sustainable solution for either the client or the clinician.

CJKF provides an important resource for addressing this gap by helping individuals experiencing temporary financial hardship manage co-pays and deductible expenses. This assistance can make the difference between continuing treatment and having to stop, helping ensure that clients can maintain access to essential mental health care during periods of financial difficulty."

CJK is proud to be partnering with CheckIn to expand connection and wellbeing!
The people who need help most are the least likely to ask for it. Roughly 3 in 4 people who die by su***de had no contact with mental health services in the year before their death. CheckIn is built for that gap — a free, anonymous 60-second daily check-in that catches the drift before it becomes a crisis. When it happens, LifeSavers — the people someone actually trusts — get notified. Not HR. Not a diagnosis. Just someone who can show up and help. Learn more at usecheckin.app.
