A gentle reminder to try and make time for the things that help you feel grounded. Whether that’s going for a walk, listening to music, journaling or spending time with loved ones, small moments of self-care can make a difference. ✨🩷
The back-to-school season can bring new routines, responsibilities and opportunities, but it can also come with added pressure as well. Financial stress is one of the most common concerns among young people and can significantly impact your mental health and well-being, especially when adjusting to a new school year.
Here are ways to help manage both your finances and the emotional impact they may have on you.
Remember, your worth isn’t determined by your financial situation. If money worries are affecting your daily life, relationships or mental health, connecting with support may help make a difference.

On the International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples, we honour and celebrate the diversity of Indigenous cultures and the vital contributions of Indigenous peoples around the world.
This year’s theme “Honouring Indigenous Midwives: Safeguarding Life and Well-being” recognizes the important role of Indigenous midwives in supporting the health and well-being of Indigenous communities, while helping to preserve knowledge and traditions for generations.
Happy International Day of Friendship! 🧡✨
