Maat E's Mental Health Message

Honor thy father and if you do not have one in your life, honor thy mother, grandparents, adoptive parents, play parents, guardians, aunties, uncles, siblings, pastor, social worker, teacher, neighbor, counselor, cousin or honor anyone who has done fathering, protecting and loving in your life. Know that since it takes a village to raise a child there is ample opportunity for us to provide fathering to someone who needs guidance. A man in particular is needed to be a father to his child and to all the children in the village. Be a father in your community/village.

Peace,
Ma'at (Erica) Lewis, Ph.D.

Maat E's Mental Health Message

Seasons change so things can change.

Learn to change with the seasons. Use the break of summer for example as a motivation to make a new season in your life. Every quarter we have a reminder of the natural shift that mother nature makes with the climate. Take the change in nature as a reminder that it is time to make your own life changes. If something is not working for you like a job, relationship, your health or some commitment, now is the time to change. When you get the inclination to make a move act on it, don't wait. Just remember that change begins with you and not with making adjustments in anyone else.

Maat E's Mental Health Message

Miracles don't necessarily occur at will, but they always occur with divine will.

Sometimes we hope for things in life and we wish for certain or particular blessings. Often we expect those desires to come true at will when we think they should happen. Life beautifully and thankfully doesn't exactly work like that. The miracles we hope for usually do not occur at will, but they always willingly occur when we need them according to divine will. This happens because we are worthy and the forces of the universe want to give us help. Thus, the divine order of life unfolds exactly as it should, when it should, to graciously grant what ever blessings we are due. Trusting this divine order and knowing that what you truly need will arrive or happen when it is meant to happen is key. The creative forces of this universe are awaiting the precise moment to willingly provide what you need. Have faith the miracles will come.

Peace, Maat E. L. Lewis
