                                        During the pandemic, everyone seemed to realize the importance of getting outside and enjoying the fresh air. Think about how much lighter you feel after taking your dog for a walk. Or how energized your mind is after a hike in the woods. Or even consider the boost you get from a warm, sunshine-filled day. It should be no secret how nature helps our mental health.

                                        Let’s explore just a few of the ways nature and mental health are connected.

                                        • Early childhood immunizations

                                          It is important that children receive immunizations early in life to help protect them from potentially life-threatening illnesses and diseases.

With professional emotional support, you and your child can learn to cope, heal and support each other every step of the way.
