💛 Mandela Day in Action! 💛

Across our hospitals and head office, the Life Path Health team took 67 minutes (and more!) to give back to our communities in honour of Mandela Day. From handing out goodie bags and food parcels to serving warm soup and sharing smiles — every act of kindness was a step toward a better world. 🌍✨

As Madiba said:
“It is in your hands to create a better world for all who live in it.”

Thank you to our incredible staff for showing up with heart and purpose. Together, we continue to 💚

🎬 Movie moments with meaning 💙

To commemorate Panic Awareness Day, our hospitals screened The Secret Life of Walter Mitty — a film that gently explores anxiety, courage, and taking that first step beyond fear.

Through popcorn, shared stories, and quiet reflection, we created space for awareness, understanding, and hope.

Anxiety and panic can feel isolating, but the day reminded us: you are not alone, and help is always within reach.

Thank you to our staff and patients for embracing this day with heart and openness. 💬🫶

🌀 PANIC AWARENESS DAY
📅 10 July

Let’s talk about panic attacks — they’re more common than you think, and nothing to be ashamed of.

Panic attacks can feel overwhelming, like you’re losing control or can’t breathe. But with understanding, support, and simple tools, they can be managed.

💡 Try the 5-4-3-2-1 Grounding Technique:
A simple way to calm your mind during anxiety ⬇️

👀 5 things you can see
🤲 4 things you can touch
👂 3 things you can hear
👃 2 things you can smell
👅 1 thing you can taste

This helps bring you back to the present moment — and out of the panic spiral.

🩵 Let’s reduce the stigma. Let’s raise awareness. Let’s support one another.

🌟 Corporate Wellness Week | 1–5 July 🌟

At the heart of your business are your people, and their mental well-being matters more than ever. In South Africa, job stress, long hours, low pay, and toxic workplace environments can lead to anxiety, depression, burnout, and even substance abuse.
This week, let's commit to real change:
• 📚 Raise awareness with workshops, seminars, and communications that help employees understand mental health, stress, anxiety, and depression.
• ⚖️ Promote work-life balance — encourage breaks, discourage overtime, and offer flexible hours to help your team recharge.
• 🧘 Embed mindfulness—support meditation, breathing exercises, wellness rooms, and relaxation zones so stress becomes manageable.
• 💬 Foster open communication—train managers to listen empathetically, create judgment-free spaces, and allow employees to speak up safely.
• 💙 Provide real support—expand Employee Assistance Programmes (EAPs) and confidential counselling, and consider peer-based Psychological First Aid training.
• 🎯 Monitor workloads & reduce stigma—set realistic expectations and actively destigmatise mental health conversations at every level.

✅ This Corporate Wellness Week, let’s show our people that when they thrive, we all thrive.

🧘‍♀️ International Yoga Day | 21 June

At Life Path Health, we believe that healing the mind starts with connecting to the body.

That’s why our hospitals are taking part in International Yoga Day — a day to pause, breathe, and move with intention.

Yoga is more than just physical exercise. It supports mental health by calming the nervous system, easing anxiety, and helping us stay grounded in the present moment.

This year, our patients and staff will come together to learn and practice the Sun Salutation (Surya Namaskar) — a gentle, beginner-friendly sequence that symbolises new beginnings and inner strength.

🌿 Breathe. Move. Heal.
