On this International Self-Care Day, let's pause and reflect on the importance of nurturing our mental well-being in July – and every day. Self-care goes beyond bubble baths and face masks; it's a conscious choice to prioritize our mental health, nurture what brings us each joy and find balance in our busy lives.

April is and we need to change the way we think about and cope with stress.

People endure stress at times. It’s part of the human experience. But over the past few years there’s been a push to practice “self-care” as a way to reduce stress. It’s become time consuming, expensive, and guilt inducing. You might say that the push for self-care sometimes reduces actual self-care. We humans do well when we co-regulate. That’s why a hug feels really good when we’re overwhelmed or venting to a friend helps us feel less angry. Our people help us, and we help our people.

Su***de is the leading cause of death for youth in Colorado. Even before the COVID crisis, data pointed to troubling trends in child and youth mental health, with Colorado’s su***de rate for 15- to 19-year-olds reaching historically high levels, and su***des among 10- to 14-year-olds becoming increasingly common. In 2020 alone, 101 Colorado kids and teens ages 10 to 19 lost their lives to su***de=, up from 50 young people a decade prior.

In 2021, 40% of high school youth reported experiencing feelings of depression in the past year, up from 35% in 2019, according to the Healthy Kids Colorado Survey (HKCS). While the percentage of youth who have seriously considered (17%), planned (13%), and attempted su***de (7%) has not changed since 2015.
