Mental Health Fun Day

Posted on November 29, 2023

Health House had the privilege of being part of the exciting celebration of the culmination of the Mental Health #SelfEmpowerment Campaign. The Mental Health Fun Day took place on the BMS grass on the 27th of October. 

It was a fun-filled day where students and staff stepped away from the books to nourish mind, body and soul. They competed in sumo wrestling, volleyball and badminton, participated in relaxing yoga exercises, received ‘food for the soul’ parcels and reflected on the year using the emotion board. 

As future health care providers, it is important to master effective coping strategies for the oftentimes stressful careers and situations. Fun-filled events like these, remind us of the importance of taking care of yourself in order to help others. Remember that being mindful of your well-being helps to build resilience and strength for the future!
