💚 World Mental Health Day 2025 💚
This year’s theme — “Mental health is a universal human right” — reminds us that emotional wellbeing is not a privilege or luxury. It’s something every person deserves, regardless of age, background, or circumstance.

As a psychiatrist, I’m reminded daily that healing begins when people are seen, heard, and given space to be human. Access to mental health care, empathy, and understanding shouldn’t depend on where you live, what you earn, or who you are.

Today, let’s recommit to creating communities where support replaces stigma — where conversations about mental health are met with kindness, not silence.

Because every mind matters. 🌍🧠✨

Workers’ Day in South Africa honors the struggles for workers’ rights and social justice, rooted in late 1800s labor movements. Since 1994, it’s been a symbol of the fight against apartheid, with trade unions playing a key role. It’s a day to remember sacrifices, celebrate progress, and stand for fair employment and equality. ✊🏽🌍

🌧️⛳️ Rain or shine, the commitment to the game never wavers! There’s something special about playing golf in the rain—the fresh scent of grass, the sound of droplets on the course, and the challenge of embracing the elements. Every swing, every putt, every puddle just makes us better!

Here’s to the love of the game and the determination to keep playing, no matter the weather. Bring on the rain! 💪🏌️‍♂️
