Columbia's council on health recently organized a wellness fair aimed at providing essential resources for individuals facing mood changes during the winter season. As the days grow shorter and temperatures drop, many people experience a decline in mental health, often characterized by feelings of sadness or lethargy. The fair served as a supportive environment where community members could learn about various strategies to enhance their well-being.
Attendees had the opportunity to engage with mental health professionals who offered insights into coping mechanisms and self-care practices. Workshops focused on mindfulness, stress management, and the importance of physical activity during the colder months. Additionally, local organizations provided information on available mental health services, including counseling and support groups.
The event emphasized the significance of community connection and the need for open conversations about mental health. By fostering awareness and providing resources, the council aims to empower individuals to take proactive steps in managing their mental well-being during the challenging winter months.
