Though we’re all invariably affected by the chemicals in our brains and the experiences we’ve lived through, open conversations on mental health remain taboo. But it’s only in collectively lifting our voices, sharing our stories and asking for support that we begin to chip away at that stigma – building communities that uplift and inspire with compassion and without judgment. Whether you’re managing symptoms of mental illness, unpacking trauma or just trying to de-stress from your busy life, you owe it to yourself to speak up about what’s on your mind and find a self-care practice that works best for you. Here, you’ll find personal stories and resources that open up dialogues on mental well-being so we can all weather the storm, heal and thrive. Be well, tend to your mind and take heart: You’re never alone. —Alanna McAuliffe, Audible Editor
