Help us provide free mental health support to Filipinos in need. ๐Ÿ’™

Since 2021, the Brief Psychological Services (BPS) of the Ateneo Bulatao Center has offered over 7,000 free counseling sessions to Filipinos experiencing stress, anxiety, and emotional distress โ€” many of them reaching out for help for the very first time.

A donation of PHP 600 can fund one free counseling session for someone who may not otherwise afford mental health care.

๐Ÿ“ฒ Donate today: bit.ly/BuDonate

Together, letโ€™s make mental health care accessible, one conversation at a time. ๐ŸŒฑ

Missed a day? A week? A month?
You havenโ€™t failed. Youโ€™ve just paused.
The most important moment in mindfulness isnโ€™t the start.

Itโ€™s the return.
You donโ€™t need to wait for the perfect time, mood, or energy.
Just begin โ€” gently, honestly, right where you are.

๐Ÿ” Every return strengthens the path. Every return is the mindfulness practice.

๐ŸŽ‰ You noticed you were distracted and snapped back.
๐ŸŽ‰ You remembered to breathe before the meeting.
๐ŸŽ‰ You felt your anxiety and didnโ€™t run from it.
๐ŸŽ‰ You sat down to practice mindfulness, even for two minutes.

Thatโ€™s not โ€œnothing.โ€
Thatโ€™s everything!

Tiny moments of presence build a radically different life.

๐ŸŽ‰ Celebrate the small wins. Theyโ€™re not small.

Mindfulness isnโ€™t another box to check.

It doesnโ€™t need to be long.
It doesnโ€™t need to be perfect.
It doesnโ€™t even need to be quiet.

It just needs to be honest.

Right here. Right now.
One breath is enough to begin again.

๐Ÿซ Donโ€™t overthink it. Just feel this next inhale โ€” and let that be your practice.

Teaching mindfulness doesnโ€™t always look like sitting in front of a room with a script.

Sometimes it looks likeโ€ฆ

๐Ÿซฑ Inviting someone to take a breath with you
๐ŸŒฟ Modeling presence in a tough conversation
๐Ÿ’ฌ Asking, โ€œDo you want to pause for a moment?โ€
๐Ÿ“ฑ Sending a grounding voice note

NEW TIME SLOTS UPDATED! We've updated the schedules to accommodate more.

The Ateneo Bulatao Centerโ€™ Community-Based Services (CBS) is opening its Katatagan Plus Program to the Filipino community!

Are you interested in improving your resilience to prepare for the upcoming semester? If so, sign up for our FREE Katatagan Plus program!

Katatagan Plus is an evidence- and community-based mental health and early intervention program for individuals at risk for mental health issues. The program uses a bio-psycho-social-spiritual framework and aims to help individuals experiencing adversity develop adaptive coping skills such as emotion regulation, stress management, interpersonal skills and problem-solving skills in order for them to become more resilient. These skills can help in managing challenges both in the short and long term.

The program will be conducted online for 8 modules facilitated once a week, on weekends from September until November. Certificates of completion will be given to those who complete all 8 sessions and the pre- and post-test evaluations. Please note that this program is not a replacement for psychotherapy.

To sign-up for the Katatagan Plus Program, please fill-up this link here: bit.ly/CBSkatatagan You can also scan the QR code on the poster.
