Thanks to Psychologists' Association of Alberta Collaborate and the Private Practice group for hosting a fun meet and greet on Friday with prizes! Putting myself out there paid off with a ticket to the gala and some cozy socks. Hope to do this again soon 🌻

I believe we should extend Self-Care Day to Self-Care Weekend!

Part of unmasking mental health is dispelling the myth that self-care is self-indulgence. Self-care is proactive and deliberate and it’s critical to our mental and physical wellbeing. We should all practice self-care in some form every day from ensuring we get a good night’s rest to getting help when we need it.

On International Self-care Day we encourage you to practice some self-care. Use our permission slip as a mental commitment to honoring that practice: https://cmha.ca/news/self-care-simplified-why-its-essential-and-how-to-make-it-happen/

Not all days and rainbows and sunshine - some days need us to take it easy, breathe, and remind ourselves that this moment won’t last forever.

Loneliness is affecting so many people. Show love when you can with all - make it weird and let’s make weird the new normal 💞

Take in the beauty of the day - the blue sky, bright sunshine, drifting clouds, or calm waters. Nature offers so many wonders and as we breathe in the fresh air and notice what we see and hear around us, it provides us with calm and peace we cannot create for ourselves 🌻
