Faamea Wellness Initiative

11/05/2026

What started as an idea for Mental Health Awareness Month turned into such a meaningful and memorable day at publiciswestafrica

As part of our May Day activities, I had the opportunity to help organize a Workplace Mental Health & Wellbeing Session led by Dr. Josephine Stiles Darko, Specialist Psychiatrist at Korle Bu Teaching Hospital.

From honest conversations and engaging Q&As to games, appreciation moments, laughter, and team bonding, the day reminded us how important it is to create spaces where people feel heard, supported, and connected.

One of the most beautiful parts? Sessions planned for 30 minutes ran far longer because people genuinely wanted to stay, share, learn, and connect.

Special appreciation to our leadership team and everyone who contributed to making this initiative a success ❤️

Sometimes the strongest workplaces are built not just through work, but through care, community, and conversation.

What drains you and what refills you?

Take a moment to notice what leaves you feeling exhausted, and what helps you feel calm, recharged, or at ease.

Be intentional about protecting your energy

MONDAY TIP

You’re not failing. You’re overwhelmed.

Sometimes anxiety can make even simple things feel heavy and hard to manage. It can feel like you’re falling behind or not doing enough but that doesn’t mean you’re failing.

It means your mind and body need support, rest, and space to reset.

Be gentle with yourself. Take things one step at a time.

CHECK-IN

How are you really feeling today?

Not the quick “I’m fine” but the honest answer.

Be where your feet are.

In a world that constantly pulls us in different directions, it’s easy to feel distracted, overwhelmed, or mentally elsewhere.

Mindfulness is about gently bringing yourself back to the present moment not worrying about what’s next or what has already passed, but focusing on where you are right now.

Pause. Breathe. Notice your surroundings.

Sometimes, being present is the reset you need.

Sometimes we move too quickly past what we feel.

But pausing to name your emotion whether it’s stress, frustration, sadness, or overwhelm is a powerful first step.

When you acknowledge it, you give yourself space to process it.

When you breathe through it, you remind your body that it’s safe to slow down.
