Mental Wellness by Monalisa

This #WorldHealthDay, we’re following the 2026 theme: "Together for health. Stand with science." True well-being means using evidence-based habits to care for our minds just as much as our bodies. Let’s swap stigma for science & prioritize mental fitness today. #WorldHealthDay

Today, I share this Heartfelt post of the recent horrific events at the Ggaba Daycare. As we remember the innocent lives taken, its important we understand the impact that trauma has on those that are left behind.🕯 Read more here: mindspaceuganda.blogspot.com/2026/04/tales-… #trauma

Instead of comparing, we can choose to emulate . Comparison has to do with measuring ourselves against others and often feeling either superior or inferior. Emulation has to do with learning from others we admire and using their example to grow.

The 2026 theme "Give to Gain" reminds us that investing in a woman’s peace of mind isn't a luxury, it’s a foundation. When we "give" women the justice and support they deserve, society "gains" leaders who move beyond just survival to truly prosper. #WomensDay2026

For too long, "strength" has been defined by how much a Black woman can endure. True justice is moving beyond endurance and toward flourishing.  where strength includes the right to rest, the right to be heard, and the right to mental peace. #womenempoweringwomen #womensday❤️

We were honoured to join @kyambogou for their 5th Counselling Open Day! 🎓💙 We spent the day talking with students about the importance of mental health. It is important that students feel supported & equiped to handle challenges. #university #MentalHealthMatters

This is how our Thursday 4th of March 2026, is looking! Will you join us @kyambogou ?

A study found that 96% of 16-year-old boys have used internet porn, with 10% checking it daily. It’s time to stop looking the other way. We need to know what our kids are seeing online and start having the tough conversations before the internet does it for us. #pornaddiction

The education system lied: You don’t need to be "hired" to be useful.  You ARE the skill. ⚒️ When you wait for a phone call from a "connection" to start using your talents, your confidence begins to rust. Full thoughts here: mindspaceuganda.blogspot.com/2026/02/the-me… #makereregraduation

When love is "sweet" (healthy, respectful, consistent), it’s one of the greatest boosters for your mental health. When it’s toxic, it’s a drain on your very soul. Stop mistaking intensity for intimacy. If it costs you your peace of mind, it’s too expensive. Happy Valentine's Day

Valentine’s Day is a celebration of LOVE. For many, today can feel a bit heavy. If you’re feeling sad, know that your feelings are valid. Let’s redefine today as a day for connection in all its forms. Reach out to a friend. Check in on a loved one. Check in with you. #valentines
