Self-care IS health care đź’š

Taking care of your mental health isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity.

Here are a few ways to support yourself:
✨ Set boundaries
✨ Get enough rest
✨ Move your body
✨ Spend time in nature
✨ Stay connected to community
✨ Practice mindfulness
✨ Do something you enjoy

Having a variety of positive coping skills matters. What works one day may not work the next—and that’s okay.

Give yourself options. Give yourself grace.

Starting your week with peace. Mindful Monday! 🌿

The Brain and Body Coalition team is proud to congratulate our Founder, Heather Ann Pitcher, on her nomination for a Chronogrammie Award for Public Health Advocate 🏆

Heather Ann’s work continues to break barriers around mental health stigma, creating spaces where individuals feel seen, heard, and supported—from head to toe. This nomination is not just a recognition of her leadership, but of the collective movement we are building together.

We invite our community to show their support:
✨ Vote daily to uplift Heather Ann and the mission behind this work
✨ Share this post to spread awareness
✨ Engage in and support the FREE events and activities happening throughout Mental Health Awareness Months—May, June, and July

Supporting mental health means showing up—for yourself and for each other. Let’s continue to build a stronger, healthier community together.
