A message💬 of Hope for Nebraska Families.

🌊Cravings and urges can feel overwhelming, but they don't last forever. Instead of fighting them, try "Urge Surfing."

When a craving hits:
1️⃣ Notice it without judgment.
2️⃣ Drop into your body and breathe diaphragmatically (deep belly breathing to calm your nervous system).
3️⃣ Remember: cravings peak and then they pass. You can sit with it.

Take it one breath at a time today. 🖤

Sometimes we just need a daily reminder to stay on the right track. Staying away from drugs is much easier when you replace negative influences with structured, positive goals. Using the SMART method keeps you fully accountable:

🎯 Specific: Replaced old habits by signing up for a weekly yoga class.
📊 Measurable: Attending at least 3 sessions every week.
✅ Achievable: The gym is close to my house and fits my schedule.
❤️ Relevant: Keeping my body strong keeps my mind clear and focused on my future.
📅 Time-bound: Committing to this routine for the next 90 days.

What healthy goal are you locking in today? 🥅.

🔴Which do you think is edible? 🤔
Is it A?
Is it B?
Is it both?
💡What you need to know:
Deceptive Looks: Illicit fentanyl is often pressed into fake prescription pill.
Rainbow Fentanyl: Some illicit pills are dyed with bright, vibrant colors.
Youth At Risk: These bright colors make them highly deceptive to young people.
Hidden Threat: You cannot see, smell, or taste fentanyl.
Stay Safe: Never take any pill that did not come from a licensed pharmacy.
⚠️The shocking truth
If you guessed A: You are not entirely wrong.
If you guessed B: You are not entirely wrong.
The Reality: Both are mixed with both candy and fentanyl.
The Danger: One single pill can change everything.

With illegally made fentanyl heavily mixed into the modern drug supply, carrying naloxone (Narcan) is just like keeping a first-aid kit or a seatbelt handy. It's plain safety. Look up community health departments, pharmacies, or local harm reduction programs (including us!) to get a kit for free. Let’s look out for our neighbors. ❤️🤝

Happy World Bicycle Day! 🌍🚵

At Coalition Rx, we teach youth how to navigate and make healthy life choices. One of the best ways to protect our mental and physical well-being is by finding positive, constructive outlets.

Did you know that cycling releases endorphins and dopamine naturally? 🧠✨ Moving your body on two wheels provides a healthy, thrilling alternative to substance use, giving your brain a natural high while kicking stress and anxiety to the curb.

This World Bicycle Day, let's encourage the next generation to ride for their health, their minds, and their future.

How are you getting active today?
