Mental Health

What is mental health?
Mental health means striking a balance in all aspects of your life: social, physical, spiritual, economic and mental. Reaching a balance is a learning process. Mental health influences how we think and feel about ourselves and others. It also affects our ability to cope with change and adapt to major life events.Prince Edward Island Resources
