World Mental Health Day

World Mental Health Day is October 10. This is an international day for global mental health education, awareness, and advocacy against social stigma.

It’s also a great reminder to have honest conversations about mental health in the workplace and use the mental health resources your company offers. Our October newsletter highlights resources to support your well-being, including a live event on October 13 with Calm mindfulness experts Jay Shetty and Tamara Levitt.

To celebrate World Mental Health Day, we encourage you to attend our special event with Calm’s Chief Purpose Officer, Jay Shetty, and Head of Mindfulness, Tamara Levitt. The event will occur on October 13 at 10am PT/1pm ET.

In this one-hour webinar, Jay and Tamara will share how their own personal mental health journeys brought them where they are today, and they’ll answer the most frequently asked questions on meditation, mindfulness, and mental health.

Focus can feel elusive, but with mindfulness techniques, you can feel good about getting the job done. Calm has a library full of resources to help you get in the zone and build the mental resilience to perform your best at work.

• Use the 7 Days of Focus meditation series to develop a practice that will help you overcome distractions
• Block out distractions with this Deep Focus playlist full of soothing ambient music, or try the Work Flow playlist with more upbeat, energetic tracks
• Need a quick reset? Take three minutes to calm racing thoughts and get into a more peaceful mindset with the beginner-friendly Body Scan meditations

In honor of World Mental Health Day, we've increased the total number of dependents from four to five. If you haven’t already, use this step-by-step guide to add up to five dependents (age 16 or older). We hope this expansion of coverage will make it easier for the people you love to be mentally and emotionally healthy.
