World Mental Health Day | October 10, 2026

Today is a reminder that mental health matters — and so does reaching out when life feels difficult.

At Shalom Counselling Centre, we believe everyone deserves a safe place to be heard, supported, and encouraged. Asking for help is a sign that you’re taking care of yourself, and no one should have to walk through life’s challenges alone.

You are not alone. Support is here. Hope is possible.

Can you ever have too many plants? 🪴

We're starting to think the answer is NO!

If you're ever visited our office, you may have noticed that we have a little love for greenery around here!

Our plants bring warmth, beauty, and a welcoming touch to our office. What makes some of them even more special is that they have been thoughtfully gifted to us by others.

These kind of gestures are such a blessing, and we are grateful for the touches of greenery that brighten our space.

🪴🌱 Now we're curious- are you someone with a green thumb, or are you just trying to keep your plants alive? 🌱🪴

Let us know in the comments!

🔥 Fire Prevention Week | October 4–10, 2026 🔥

Fire safety starts with the simple things we do every day. This week is an important reminder to take a few moments to make sure our homes, workplaces, and families are prepared.

🏠 Test your smoke alarms regularly and make sure everyone knows what they sound like.

🔥 Replace smoke alarms that are more than 10 years old or are no longer working properly.

🚪 Create a home fire escape plan and practice it with everyone in your household.

🔌 Take a few minutes to look for potential fire hazards, such as overloaded outlets, damaged cords, or unattended candles.

Being prepared is about more than physical safety — it can also bring reassurance and peace of mind. Knowing what to do in an emergency can help reduce uncertainty and allow us to respond with greater confidence when unexpected situations arise.

For those who have experienced a fire or another frightening emergency, reminders like Fire Prevention Week may also bring up difficult memories or emotions. Be gentle with yourself and remember that support is available if you need it.

A little preparation today can make a big difference in an emergency.

Let’s work together to care for the safety and well-being of our families, neighbours, and community.

Happy Canadian Senior Citizen's Day!

Today, we celebrate the seniors who enrich our families, workplaces, and communities through their wisdom, experiences, compassion, and contributions.

Canadian Seniors Day is an opportunity to recognize all that older adults have given throughout their lives — and, just as importantly, all that they continue to contribute each and every day.

At Shalom Counselling Centre, we believe every stage of life deserves to be met with dignity, connection, care, and respect. Today, we celebrate the stories shared, the lessons passed along, the relationships built, and the many ways seniors continue to strengthen our communities.

To the seniors in our lives and across Canada — we appreciate you, we value you, and today we celebrate you.
