Mental Health Awareness Month

May is Mental Health Month, dedicated to prioritizing our well-being and promoting open conversations about mental health. At Carolina, we recognize the importance of mental health and its impact on our personal and professional lives.

Our mental health effects how we think, feel and act and includes emotional, psychological, and social well-being. We can support the positive mental and social wellbeing of our friends, family, co-workers and ourselves by:

• Taking media breaks. Limit exposure to news and social media.
• Caring for our bodies. Get plenty of sleep, eat a healthy diet and stay active.
• Making time to unwind. Schedule time for yourself each day for something you enjoy, like reading, meditation, having a cup of tea, walking outdoors, taking a bubble bath, etc.
• Connecting with others. Talk to those you trust about your concerns and how you’re feeling and check in on how they feel too.

Visit the website below to learn more about the resources that Carolina offers to support the positive mental and social wellbeing of its employees.
