Organiser's description

May is Mental Health awareness month - a month to actively participate in an ongoing effort to reduce the stigma around mental health illnesses by sharing our experiences. Join this virtual event (you can take part in this from anywhere in the world) to complete a 5k and help spread the word. Dogs play such an important role in our mental health and wellbeing so it is encouraged to complete this 5k with your best friend by your side (We'd love to see photos). You can do this race from anywhere in the world so definitely leave a comment letting us know what city/country you are taking part from! Join Boomer The Landcloud and myself. Charishma Cohen as we get in those mindful miles.

SeekHer is a foundation that is doing incredible work to empower women through advocacy, research and support towards better mental health so they can thrive. As a woman, who has dealt with her share of mental health struggles, this organization and the work that they are doing is so close to my heart. It is aiming to make women feel more seen, supported and celebrated! This virtual event will also act as a fundraiser for SeekHer and I would urge to have your support to help this cause - either from a direct donation (on donations page) or by sharing the link to the fundraiser!

Let's carve out some time this week to take those mindful miles towards more happiness!
