It's Mental Health Monday!

💙 Mental Health Tip: Breathe with Intention 💙

Feeling stressed or anxious? Take a moment to slow down. Try this:

1️⃣ Inhale deeply through your nose for 4 counts.
2️⃣ Hold your breath for 4 counts.
3️⃣ Exhale slowly through your mouth for 6 counts.
4️⃣ Repeat 3–5 times.

This simple practice calms your nervous system, clears your mind, and reconnects you with your body. 🌿✨

✨ January 4 | National Ribbon Skirt Day ✨

Today we honour the ribbon skirt- a powerful expression of Indigenous identity, resilience, and belonging. Worn by Indigenous women, girls, and gender-diverse people, ribbon skirts carry stories of culture, teachings, and connection to our ancestors. It represents pride, strength, and the right to show up as our full selves in all spaces.

We celebrate the generations who have sewn, worn, and protected this tradition, and we stand with Indigenous youth who continue to walk proudly in their culture. 🧡

Today and every day, we honour Indigenous voices, traditions, and the beauty of being seen.

It's Mental Health Monday!

Rest is Medicine 🤍

Rest is not something you need to earn. Sleep and downtime are essential, not optional. Wellness is about balance- mind, body, spirit, family, land, and community.

🌿 Why rest matters
Rest supports mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health
Sleep helps the body heal and the mind reset
Downtime reduces stress and supports resilience

🧠 Rest looks different for everyone
Sleeping when your body needs it
Sitting quietly, breathing, or being on the land
Taking breaks from screens, noise, and responsibilities
Saying no when your spirit needs space

🤍 Remember
You do not need to feel guilty for resting
You are allowed to slow down
Caring for yourself helps you care for others
Rest is part of living a good life

Honouring your rest is honouring your wellbeing.
