DAY 8 - Be Mindful

 


Life is a balance between holding on and letting go. - Rumi

As we move through this second week of the Suicide Prevention Month, it is a good time to take a moment to think about mindfulness. Mindful activities are beneficial for all people, but they can be particularly calming and helpful for those struggling with depression and anxiety, and also for those who are struggling with grief.

My hope for everyone whose life has been touched by suicide is that we all have moments of peace and calm in our lives as well.
