MRU Mens Soccer campaign for CMHA-Calgary

Mental illness directly and indirectly affects millions of Canadians across the Country. Help us spread awareness and raise money for an organization that helps Calgarians and Canadians with mental health issues every day.

Tips for Mental Health

1. Eat right, Keep fit -A balanced diet, exercise and rest can help you to reduce stress and enjoy life.

2.Make Time for Family and Friends -These relationships need to be nurtured; if taken for granted they will not be there to share life’s joys and sorrows.

3. Give and Accept Support -Friends and family relationships thrive when they are “put to the test”.

4. Volunteer - Being involved in community gives a sense of purpose and satisfaction that paid work cannot.

5. Manage Stress -We all have stressors in our lives but learning how to deal with them when they threaten to overwhelm us will maintain our mental health.

6.Find Strength in Numbers - Sharing a problem with others who have had similar experiences may help you find a solution and will make you feel less isolated.

7. Learn to Be at Peace with Yourself -Get to know who you are, what makes you really happy, and learn to balance what you can and cannot change about yourself.
