Quote of the Week:
"Don't expect everyone to understand your journey, especially if they have never had to walk your path."
Mental Health Tip of the Week:
Take 30 minutes to go for a nature walk - it could be a stroll through a park, or a hike in the woods. Research shows that being outside can increase energy levels, reduce depression, and boost well-being.
