Taking care of your health is something that’s easy to overlook in our busy lives these days, along with the added uncertainty we can feel during these times of COVID-19, politics, and just life in general.

Along with our physical health, we should also strive to make mental health a priority. That’s why we’d like to take a moment to bring attention to today, October 10, 2020, observed as World Mental Health Day by the World Health Organization.
