There is no single way to move through a mental health journey.
This World Mental Health Day, the Psychological Society of South Africa (PsySSA), in partnership with the PsySSA Student Division and Inspire SA x Strength:Lab Run Club, invites you to join us for a morning of movement, connection and community.
As psychologists, students, academics, practitioners, volunteers and leaders, much of our work centres on the wellbeing of others. This morning offers an opportunity to invest some of that same energy back into ourselves and into the communities around us.
Whether you are an experienced runner, an enthusiastic walker, or someone who would simply enjoy some good coffee and good company, there is a place for you.
More than kilometres.
World Mental Health Day creates an opportunity not only to talk about mental health, but to create spaces where people can move, connect and belong.
Choose the distance that works for you.
Different bodies. Different fitness levels. Different journeys. Walk, run or move at the pace that feels right for you.
Not planning to walk or run? You are equally welcome to come along, support others and enjoy the morning with us.
Everything you need for the morning.
Come as you are.
Move at your pace.
There is no cost to participate. Voluntary donations are warmly welcomed from those who would like to contribute.
Registration is essential so that we can plan appropriately for everyone joining us on the morning.
Register for Move for Mental HealthCoffee. Conversations. Community.
The morning does not end when the walk or run does. Stay afterwards, slow down and spend some time connecting with colleagues, friends and members of the PsySSA community.
Supporting mental health also means creating spaces where people can simply be together. After all, some of the best conversations happen after the finish line.
