💚 May is Mental Health Awareness Month 💚

At Canadian Family Health Counselling, we believe mental health is just as important as physical health.

This month is a reminder to slow down, check in with yourself and with those around you, and to continue breaking the stigma that keeps so many people silent.

You don’t have to carry things alone.
Support is here. Healing is possible.

✨ Be kind to yourself
✨ Start the conversation
✨ Reach out when you need support

Together, we can build stronger, healthier communities.

🌍💚 Happy Earth Day from Canadian Family Health Counselling 💚🌍

Today is a beautiful reminder that caring for the Earth is also a powerful way of caring for your mind. 🌿

✨ Did you know?
• Spending just 20 minutes in nature can significantly lower stress hormones 🌱
• Being around trees and green spaces can improve mood and reduce anxiety 🌳
• Listening to natural sounds like birds or water can calm the nervous system 🕊️
• Gardening or touching soil has been linked to boosting serotonin, the “feel-good” chemical 🌼

Nature has a gentle way of grounding us, helping us slow down, breathe deeper, and reconnect, not just with the world around us, but with ourselves.

This Earth Day, take a moment to step outside, feel the sun, notice the air, and let nature support your emotional well-being. 🌞

💫 Small acts matter: go for a walk, plant something, reduce waste, or simply pause and appreciate the beauty around you.

When we nurture the Earth, we nurture our mental health too. 💚

Canadian Family Health Counselling and Release Breathwork Present: Somatics and Breathwork in the Helping Profession

1-Day Micro-Credential

Online or on Campus @ Trent University, Peterborough Ontario

Saturday, May 2 | 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM

This one-day micro-credential workshop introduces participants to the foundational principles of somatics and the applied use of breathwork as a regulation-based practice within helping professions. The workshop is designed for educators, healthcare workers, therapists, social service professionals, and others working in service-oriented roles who are seeking evidence-informed, body-based tools to support both personal wellbeing and professional effectiveness.

The learning format integrates lecture-based instruction with experiential learning, allowing participants to engage directly with the practices explored. Experiential components are designed to deepen understanding through embodied participation, while maintaining a professional, accessible, and trauma-informed approach.
The workshop emphasizes practical application, ethical consideration, and professional relevance, offering participants tools that can be immediately applied within their own lives and, where appropriate, within their professional practice.

No prior experience with somatics or breathwork is required.
