Today marks the start of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color Mental Health Month. So we’re talking with therapist Dr. Racine Henry (@sankofatherapynyc) about the importance of shattering the stigma around asking for help. Then, a meditation to check in with yourself and set an intention to be more open in your own mental health journey, because change starts with us. Takeaways: 1- BIPOC Mental Health Month recognizes the unique struggles that minority groups face when it comes to care and treatment for their mental health. 2- Part of the reason why? A cultural stigma around asking for help. 3- Remember: Asking for help is powerful. And you deserve to get the support you need.Daily Mantra: I'm worthy of caring for my mental health.Shine’s Guide to BIPOC Mental Health Month: https://bit.ly/3dLgztw This July, we're donating 20% of proceeds from Shine Premium memberships and gift cards purchased on our website to four non-profit organizations that are supporting the mental health of BIPOC or LGBTQIA+ communities.
