Mental Wellness Month is observed in January to promote awareness about mental health and encourage practices that foster emotional well-being. It's a time to focus on self-care, break mental health stigmas, and adopt habits that improve overall mental health. As we navigate through the demands of daily life, prioritizing our mental wellness becomes essential for leading a balanced and fulfilling life. The event will be spread over two activities starting from 23rd January onwards and shall be open for all the members of the CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Pune Lavasa Campus. We will be having a Feel Good Playlist and Mandala Art Session. Students and faculties are invited to contribute to mindful artistry with Mandala. Alongwith Mandala, CCHS along with the Peer Educators shall be distributing positive affirmations across the campus to instill a feeling of positivity and wellness amongst all. The event's primary focus is to create a platform to raise awareness about the prevalence and impact of mental health issues, fostering understanding and empathy within communities.
Celebrating Mental Wellness Month is a proactive effort to break down the stigma associated with mental health. By openly discussing these matters, we work to create an environment where individuals feel comfortable seeking help, without fear of judgment or discrimination. This collective conversation encourages people to prioritize self-care, recognize the signs of mental health challenges, and support one another on their journeys to well-being.
The overarching goal of the event is to nurture the overall well-being of both students and faculty members within the esteemed CHRIST (Deemed to be University), Pune Lavasa Campus. It seeks to create an environment of understanding and support, where everyone feels safe, respected, and valued. It will also help to create a reminder that mental health is an integral part of overall well-being and a call to collectively work towards a society that values, supports, and
prioritizes mental wellness for all. There will also be Instagram posts to enable the students to be aware of the importance of taking care of one’s own Mental Wellness.
