The weight of navigating systemic injustices, discrimination, and cultural erasure can be overwhelming, leading to profound mental and emotional fatigue. Marginalized communities have historically been expected to embody resilience in the face of adversity, but it is essential to recognize that this expectation can take a toll on our well-being.

Understanding the truth about mental health helps us create a more compassionate and supportive world. When we bust these myths, we open the door for honest conversations, reduce stigma, and encourage more people to seek the help they need.

Being active and social can be incredibly beneficial for supporting mental health. Engaging in outdoor activities such as group yoga sessions in the park, joining a running club, or cycling across a bridge not only boosts physical and mental health but also fosters connections with others.
