For counseling: bit.ly/itcs_book-counseling In Touch Community Services (ITCS) is a leading provider of professional counseling services, a telephone Crisis Line and cross-cultural orientation programs. In Touch was established in 1980 and is a non-profit, non-governmental organization servicing the well- being of the community. Originally developed with the aid of the United States Embassy, the aim of In Touch was to provide newly-arrived expatriates with information about resources in the Manila community and to assist them in understanding and appreciating cross-cultural issues. In 1984, In Touch extended its information and referral outreach to the Filipino community through its anonymous telephone-based Crisis Line. At that time, few counseling services existed in Manila especially free and confidential services to assist people who experience stress, anxiety and other challenges in daily life. In the years since, In Touch has trained hundreds of volunteers to respond professionally and compassionately to all Crisis Line callers. While there are several organizations catering to the physical needs of the community, In Touch is one of the few organizations whose activities focus on mental and emotional well-being. We understand these are not tangible, but we cannot overemphasize their importance and consider our services vital to serving the Manila community.

🌿 Breathe in. Be here. Be now. 🌿

On this World Meditation Day, we are reminded that peace doesn’t always come from changing our surroundings. Sometimes, it starts with returning to ourselves.

Take a moment to pause, relax your shoulders, and connect with the present. Your mind, body, and spirit deserve this stillness.

🩵 Thank you for being part of Banyuhay: Renewing Strength, Rediscovering Self!

Through shared stories, gentle conversations, and quiet moments of understanding, we were reminded that burnout does not define us—and that rest, compassion, and reconnection are powerful acts of care. 🦋

As we move forward, may we carry with us the courage to slow down, listen to ourselves, and begin again with kindness. Maraming salamat for sharing this Kapihan with us. ☕
