January can be one of the most challenging months of the year – cold and darkness can have a real impact on your overall health and wellbeing. This is, Shannex dedicated the month to promoting mental wellness through Mental Health Matters.
Mental Health Matters is a homegrown initiative to bring awareness, acceptance, and action to mental health in our communities. Residents and team members shared their wisdom on how to manage mental well-being and how they practice self-care in their daily routines.
Mental health challenges can affect anyone – at any age. Working as a community we can support each other through struggles and hard times, you are not alone.
Your Mental Health Matters!
