Today is World Mental Health Day, a good reminder that mental health IS health. Don't be afraid to ask for help. You deserve whole-body health and wellness.

It's World Mental Health Day - a day to talk about mental health and show everyone that mental health matters.🌍💜

This year our theme is ‘overwhelm’. Many of us are feeling overwhelmed by global events and what can feel like non-stop negative news.

It’s okay to feel this way and it’s okay to ask for help, no matter what you are going through.

Take time today to start a conversation with a friend about what good mental health means to you.💜
