MDAM is pleased to partner with Hilary Druxman Design for this exciting fundraising initiative.

The “Life-Love-Healing” Pendant was inspired by the free-style graffiti sculpture, LifesArt, by artist Reid Bricker. Reid loved to sculpt and his art inspired conversations that encouraged others to see the beauty within their own creativity. Reid believed that Life truly is Art.

100% of the net proceeds from the sale of each handcrafted pendant will support men’s depression and youth programming at the Mood Disorders Association of Manitoba. This is a sterling silver pendant on a 16-18" chain. Also available as a lapel pin.

To purchase, please visit our website.

Self-Care Spotlight: Gentle Boundaries 🌿

Not everything needs your energy.

This week, try:
• pausing before saying yes
• giving yourself permission to decline
• protecting your time without over-explaining

Boundaries aren’t about pushing people away — they’re about making space for yourself.

04/11/2026

When emotions feel overwhelming, try this:

Pause

Name what you’re feeling (“I feel anxious / overwhelmed / frustrated”)

Take one slow breath

Why it works:
Naming emotions helps your brain process them instead of staying stuck in them.

You don’t have to fix everything — just start by noticing.

April is also Counseling Awareness Month.

Counseling is often misunderstood—but at its core, it’s simply a space to be heard.

A space to talk through what’s been sitting heavy.

A space where you don’t have to filter, fix, or figure everything out on your own.

You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from support.

And you don’t have to carry everything by yourself.

Reaching out can be an act of care—not just for others, but for yourself too.

04/10/2026

Today’s reminder:

Rest is not something you earn.

It’s something you need.

Let yourself pause without guilt.
