PPA’s Mental Wellness Initiative for Everyone

This initiative is a collaborative effort between the Philippine Psychiatric Association and its accredited training institutions. It aims to provide accessible mental health education while showcasing the creativity and expertise of our psychiatry residents, who have transformed clinical knowledge into engaging visual guides.

Do you find yourself rushing through the day without pause? Mindfulness invites us to slow down, notice the present moment, and reconnect with ourselves and others.

As the fourth in this series, this infographic, produced in collaboration with the Medical City Department of Psychiatry, introduces the practice of Mindfulness, its benefits, and simple ways to begin.

Mindfulness is a helpful wellness practice, but is not a substitute for professional mental health care. If stress or emotional struggles persist, reach out to a trusted mental health professional or contact local services for support.

We are proud to highlight our residents’ dedication to making mental wellness accessible to every Filipino.
