Societally, mental health has been synonymous with mental illness.  The negative connotations, misconceptions, stigmas, and general lack in understanding have become even more pronounced in ever connected modern society. Once we, as a society, understand the positive aspects of mental wellness we will be better prepared to accept mental health for what it is and work towards improved resilience, perspective, and overall quality of life.

In a busy world we often find ourselves focused on daily responsibilities, parenting, working, socializing, and sometimes just getting through the day. While these tasks are an important aspect of daily life, it is equally important to take care of our own mental health in day-to-day experiences to strengthen our mental wellness.

With the current world population estimated to be 8.2 billion, everyone contributes their uniqueness to what makes the fabric of the world. While we maintain a vast amount of uniqueness between individuals, it is said that we have more in common than differences.  One universal factor that exists within us is mental health.  Within mental health is a state known as mental wellness.
