Hope everyone is re cooperating nicely from this weekend! Probably the longest weekend for most of us, but may not feel like the longest for many of us. ;)
On this Love Day, I wanted to bring attention to an illness that some people may not think about much, but that may effect some of the people we know and love. An organization that I support, takes care of this group of people, and looks to make life easier for those that suffer with this condition, and educate those who do not.
The issue that I am speaking about is mental illness. There are many situations in which someone finds them selves with a mental illness, whether they were born with this condition, or it evolves from one or more traumatic life instances, but either way, many people suffer and need assistance. Because of this, I have decided to team up with The Mental Health Foundation. (Mission Statement below)
The Mental Health Foundation encourages, develops and supports educational campaigns and other initiatives to improve understanding of mental illness and ensure access to quality care. The Foundation is particularly concerned with reducing the stigma of mental illness and encouraging individuals to seek early diagnosis.
On this Love Day, I just wanted to bring attention to this cause, and have us think about the people who we may or may not know who have a mental illness', and work to understand it a little better.
Bonus - Christmas Decor Idea
I saw this idea online a few weeks ago and thought it was really neat! In order to make it, appears you would just need a few jelly or mason jars, some sugar, and then small trees and decor items that you would find at a craft store. Place a few next to each other, to create a complete Winter Wonderland Scene. Very cool!
See everyone tomorrow for the final week of your "4 Weeks Younger in 4 Weeks" -Your 4 week plan for looking younger!
Keep Smiling,
Lesley
