What does Self-Care mean to you?
Mondays blog (start of Self-Care Week), Philipa-Jo discussed how self-care is viewed and approached, a Self-Care Revolution, and shared some definitions of what self-care means. In today’s blog, Philipa-Jo continues exploring what self-care really means to people by speaking to some of York St John University students.
A word on Self-Care… the Self-Care Revolution
Todays marks the first day of self-care week, and Philipa-Jo, one of the Centre’s volunteers, will be discussing how we view and approach our self-care, and starting a self-care revolution!
World Menopause Day
When I was approached to write a blog post for World Menopause Day, I immediately felt a strange mix of gratitude and hesitation. Grateful for the opportunity to discuss an important topic but also, where on earth do I start. Menopause is such a big topic. October marks World Menopause Month, which aims to raise awareness of the menopause and options to improve health and wellbeing for women in mid-life and beyond. Culminating with World Menopause Day on 18 October, the theme for 2022 is cognition and mental health.

My Journey to the Canadian Rockies and Beyond!
My journey to the Rockies started in September 2018 when I saw an advertisement fundraising for Saint Catherine’s Hospice. I share what my goals were and what I thought the journey was about, but after reading this, I hope you agree that that the destination is not always the most important.
Growing for Wellbeing

Exercising for Mental Health
We all constantly hear the fact that exercise is good for mental health. But why is that? When faced with mental or emotional challenges in life, exercise can help you build resilience and cope in a healthy way.
World Meditation Day
Do you have a regular daily practice, dip in and out of meditation, or are a complete beginner?
There are lots of benefits of meditating to encourage you to get started, and remind you why to keep going. From reducing anxiety and stress, reducing physical discomfort, boosting your immune system, lowering blood pressure, relieving depression, and it can increase creative thinking and productivity!
