2 upcoming web events on self care!

Many Minnesotans are facing heightened stress and uncertainty. The ongoing federal government shutdown, layoffs, and food insecurity are creating real challenges for people and families, especially for those living with a mental illness. Stress, anxiety, and depression can intensify when basic needs feel uncertain, making it even more essential to take care of yourself—and to lean on community for support.

NAMI Minnesota is offering two free, one-hour online classes designed to help you build resilience, strengthen your mental health, and connect with others who understand what you’re experiencing. These sessions provide practical tools and strategies to help you navigate difficult times while fostering connection and support.

This class offers an overview of trauma, its effects on the brain, and the key principles behind a trauma-informed approach. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how trauma affects individuals and communities—and how we can all contribute to creating safe, supportive spaces where people feel valued.

So often, self-care and mindfulness take a back seat in life—but for those living with a mental illness or struggling with stress, these practices are essential. This one-hour session will help you build a personalized toolkit for better self-care and teach you how to recognize when to use those tools. Learn new techniques, strengthen your routine, and explore fresh resources to support your well-being.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed or struggling to cope, NAMI Minnesota is here to help. In these uncertain times, community and care can make all the difference.
