Week 7—You Did It! And That Deserves to Be Celebrated 🎉💛

Congratulations on completing Week Seven of your self-improvement journey! That’s seven weeks of choosing yourself, showing up for your mental health, and putting in the quiet, meaningful work of growth.

It’s easy to let life pull us in every direction, but you’ve made the powerful decision to slow down, check in, and care for your inner world. That kind of commitment creates real change—and you’re doing it.

Here’s your Week 7 mental health tip: Try the “Name It to Tame It” strategy for emotional regulation.

When emotions feel big, the first step is noticing and naming what you’re feeling.

Try this simple practice:

• Pause when you feel overwhelmed or upset.

• Say to yourself: “I feel [insert emotion] right now.” (e.g., “I feel frustrated,” “I feel nervous,” “I feel sad.”)

• Just naming the feeling can help reduce its intensity and give your brain space to respond more calmly.

Pair this with a deep breath or short break—and you’re building a powerful tool for emotional balance.

And don’t forget—you don’t have to go through this alone. Join the Making Headway Planner & Journal Facebook Group for support, inspiration, and connection with others who are walking this same path.

You’re not just filling out pages. You’re making space for healing, for self-awareness, and for a brighter, more grounded version of yourself. We’re so proud of you. Keep going. You’re making headway.
