🌿 MYIAH Monday | Indigenous Peoples’ Day

Today, we honor the rich heritage, resilience, and wisdom of Indigenous Peoples across the nation—especially the elders whose traditions, stories, and care for community continue to inspire us all. 💙

At My Independence at Home, we believe in preserving dignity, independence, and cultural identity for every individual we serve.

As we reflect today, may we learn from the values of connection, care, and respect that have always been at the heart of Indigenous communities.
Let’s celebrate, listen, and uplift Indigenous voices—past, present, and future. 🌎✨

💙 | Depression Awareness Month

Depression can affect anyone—and it often shows up differently for seniors and adults with disabilities. At My Independence at Home, we understand that mental health is just as vital as physical health.

This month, we honor our compassionate caregivers who do more than assist with daily routines—they offer a listening ear, meaningful companionship, and emotional support that truly makes a difference. 🌿

Looking after mental well-being doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are 6 simple, powerful ways to support mental health—for yourself or a loved one:
✅ Stay physically active
✅ Surround yourself with positive people
✅ Take time to unwind and relax
✅ Talk to people you trust
✅ Get quality sleep
✅ Eat healthy, nutritious food

Let’s continue to break the stigma and advocate for the emotional and mental well-being of our seniors and individuals with disabilities—because true care happens both in the home and in the heart.
