This is your reminder that you are doing a good job and you should be very proud of every step that you are making to improve your mental health.

If trauma can be passed from one generation to another, then so can healing.

In every mental health awareness campaign, we should ensure that we take stock of the connections made, resources shared and support that has been given or will be actively given to all those struggling with mental health issues.

Often times, when we speak, we help another person validate their experience and emotions and lets them know that they are not alone in the mental health journey.

Our dedication to changing the narrative on mental health in the South Asian region is focussed on helping people understand how they can apply the knowledge that they already have to their lives in trauma-informed ways.

Open and candid conversations surrounding mental health can help us to break down the stigma surrounding mental health in the community. It helps us to raise awareness on mental health struggles, and provide timely and appropriate support for those struggling with mental health issues.

Self-care can be a powerful tool for healing intergenerational trauma within the South Asian community. It opens avenues to challenge and have conversations surrounding the stigma of mental health, creating a ripple effect of healing that will extend to future generations.

In a society that traditionally places immense pressure on achievement, it's crucial to address anxiety within the South Asian community. Creating safe havens where self-care and well-being are valued above external expectations, as is being done by The Tech Academy is a good first step to ensure this, and the coming generations thrive.

03/24/2023

The notion that self-care is a luxury for the few who have the time and the resources is misguided. Self-care is a necessity for all of us and we hope as the weekend begins, you take the time to practice self-care activities for your mental, emotional, and physical wellness.

Do you have any self-care activities you would recommend we try this weekend?

Community is essential for the South Asian region. We are creating a program that will strengthen communities to promote mental health awareness and destigmatize seeking help.

The South Asian Mental Health Initiative is using its voice to change the perception of mental health in the South Asian region. We aim to support individuals to help reduce stigma, help increase access to mental health care, and promote a more inclusive and supportive environment for those struggling with mental health.

The current focus of our capacity development is mental health literacy, cultural exchange, and learning & community connection events.
