SUMMARY:Unmasking Mental Health
DESCRIPTION:We all wear masks. Whether to fit in\, avoid judgment\, or prot
 ect ourselves from stigma\, masking is a common but often hidden part of o
 ur daily lives. This course\, offered as part of Mental Health Week\, expl
 ores the concept of masking and how it applies when we suppress our emotio
 ns\, personality traits\, behaviours\, or symptoms to meet societal expect
 ations. Through engaging discussions and interactive activities\, particip
 ants will uncover the reasons why we mask and its impact on our mental wel
 l-being. We will examine how stigma contributes to the need to mask and ho
 w unmasking - when safe to do so- can foster deeper connections\, boost se
 lf-esteem\, and support overall mental health.\n\nA key component of this 
 course is a creative exercise where participants will design a mask that r
 epresents what they show to the world\, then symbolically "remove" it to r
 eveal their authentic selves. This powerful activity encourages self-refle
 ction and dialogue on the importance of acceptance and vulnerability. Let'
 s unmask mental health together - because there is no "normal\," and every
 one deserves to be seen\, heard\, and supported.\n\n&nbsp\;\n\nDate: Thurs
