When was the last time you checked in with yourself?

Taking a moment to pause and reflect can help you better understand what you need and how you’re feeling.

Try this simple check-in:
Ask how you feel right now
Note what’s been on your mind
Identify what you need today

Small steps can make a big difference.

Save for later to use when you want to check in with yourself again.

On February 26, CMHA Peel Dufferin the community came together for our Black History Month Community Wellness Fair, a day dedicated to learning, connection, and cultural celebration.

The event included meaningful conversations on decolonizing our minds, henna designs, and learning about the wellness benefits of natural remedies and essential oils. These activities created space to reflect on culture, healing, and community.

A special thank you to the Black History Month Planning Committee for bringing this event to life and to everyone who participated.

From frontline care to advocacy and leadership, women continue to play an essential role in building more compassionate, inclusive, and accessible systems of support.

At CMHA Peel Dufferin, we are grateful for the women on our teams and across our community who help make this work possible.

Self-injury (sometimes called non-suicidal self-injury or NSSI) is when someone deliberately hurts themself but does not intend to end their life. It can include cutting, burning, scratching, hitting, or interfering with wound healing.

Often, self-injury develops as a way of coping with overwhelming emotions like anxiety, sadness, anger, or emotional numbness. While it is not a mental illness itself, it may be linked to challenges such as depression, trauma, or difficulties managing emotions.

Many people struggle in silence because of shame or stigma.
