There is still a stigma and lack of undertanding about mental health. Today on World Mental Health Day, let's elevate the conversation and make mental health a priority.

It's okay to not be okay.

Take time for yourself today. Check in on loved ones. Together, we can create a world where mental health is a priority for all.

Addiction is complicated. For the person affected, it's a complex mental illness that affects the brain and behaviour. For their loved ones, it can be an emotional roller coaster like no other.

Understanding addiction as a mental health disorder can help break down the stigma that often surrounds it. Just like other mental health conditions, addiction requires empathy, support, and professional treatment to manage.

If you or someone you love is struggling with addiction, support is available.

Gratitude.

Sometimes we can get lost in a space of exhaustion, frustration, and what feels like an uphill climb. So today, we flip the narrative. Let's take a moment today to reflect on what we are thankful for, to shift focus from what's missing in our lives to what we already have.

This simple mindset change to gratitude can help us feel more connected and fulfilled.

Give yourself grace.

September means many of us are settling back into a new routine. Kids in school. Regular work hours. Summer holidays are officially over.

It's not easy, so try and give yourself space and patience to work through the new schedule and find a rhythm that works for everyone in your family.
