Mental illness doesn’t choose who is effected by it, but culture, race, gender and sexual orientation can affect access to treatment, support and quality of care for many.

February is always a very important month, mainly because it is Black History Month! Black History Month is a time to highlight all of the incredible contributions that the black community has made and continues to make today. There are many ways that everyone can commemorate the month and show appreciation, even from home. In the first segment we included a list of things you can do to show support for Black History month! ✨
In the next segment we covered International Boost Self-Esteem month, which is all about working on yourself in whatever ways you want/need most. Most people occasionally struggle with self-esteem or self-worth insecurities and could benefit from some form of self-esteem boosting activity! At the end of the segment there are some ideas of things to implement to help with self-esteem and mental health in general. 😊
Lastly we wanted to do a segment on heart health because February is also American Heart Health month. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in Americans. While genetic factors do play a role, the good news is that 80% of cardiovascular disease could be preventable with education and action. Read through the segment to find 5 tips to show your heart some love! ❤️

Happy January! 🎉 We hope everyone has been staying healthy (both mentally and physically) throughout these winter months. January is actually Mental Wellness Month, which is very appropriate because the rates of seasonal depression are at an all time high following New Years Eve annually. Mental Wellness Month is a great reminder to maintain our mental health and keep us feeling good! Seasonal depression isn’t just depression, it can make you more irritable and feel a lack of energy as well. Read the middle segment to learn a few tips on combating symptoms of seasonal depression in the new year! While the new year can feel like a fresh start, it’s hard to stay consistent with resolutions you made if you’re feeling down in the dumps! In the last segment we talked about why it’s important to set goals and also shared a few tips for sticking to New Years resolutions. 😊

Happy December to all! ❄️ This month is National Stress-free (Family) Holiday Month, which is a great time to advocate for keeping up on mental health despite the stresses that may come with the winter holiday months! Our first segment talks about some of the struggles that people can go through during this time, a few ways to combat them, and of course that whatever feelings come along are valid!
The next segment goes over being in recovery through the holidays and shares tips on how to make the challenging moments a little easier. And our last segment is about the Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign, which was created to advocate for safe driving because of increased drunk-driving related deaths during this time of year. There are also some safety tips for celebrating the holiday season. 😊🎄

Four benefits to No-Alcohol November!

11/17/2022

Hello, we hope everyone has had a good month so far 🌦 November has multiple important awareness events, so we picked 3 topics to highlight! The first topic is Hunger and Homelessness Awareness week, which is a program that seeks to draw attention to the problems of hunger and homelessness in this country and how to create solutions by holding fundraisers and educational advocacy events.
The next topic is No Drink November, which is one of many month long alcohol-free themed challenges (Sober October, Dry December etc). These challenges are great opportunities to reset your mind and body and maybe even break an unhealthy drinking habit! 😊 There are support groups on Facebook for these challenges. We also included a short list of the many benefits to removing alcohol for a month or more!
The last topic we covered is International Stress Awareness Week, which focuses on stress management and campaigning against the stigmas associated with stress and mental health issues. Stress management has become exceedingly more important over the last few years! Positive thinking and mindfulness practices are two fantastic ways to combat stress. Read the 3rd segment or check the sources for more details. 💛
