Here’s the thing: we all have mental health. Your brain is as important to your happiness as your heart, lungs, or bones. So let’s talk about mental health, because we are all in this together.

GET INVOLVED

We have the power to make a positive difference in our community when it comes to mental health and it starts with TALKING. The change starts with all of us.

Be The Change
We are all connected.

Nature has a wisdom to it that can teach us so much- if we pay attention. 

The aspen tree is the perfect example. Aspens are unique in that a forest of trees can actually be one tree. 

Just like the aspen tree, we are all connected to one another at the source of our being. We are all a part of something so much greater than our individual selves. We are connected by our roots. Imagine a world where we all acted like aspen trees….

There is a peace in knowing we are not alone. Peace in knowing that even when the winds of life are cold and blowing hard, all we need to do is turn our leaves and allow the colony- our community- to shoulder the burden with us, for we are all connected.

We are stronger together.

Emotional well-being is essential for people and communities to thrive. Our mental health is a critical part of living the healthy lifestyle valued in this community and why so many choose the Gunnison Valley as home.  Living here can present many challenges and it’s ok to not be ok. I joined the efforts of CB State of Mind because I love this community and believe in our mission. I am committed to raising the community’s voice and strengthening collaborative partnerships that are required to create real change. 

Happy International women's day. You are enough, today and everyday.

We Are #BetterTogether💚

At CB State of Mind, we believe that sharing our stories breaks the stigma of mental health and helps us by normalizing the struggle. Through our Better Together campaign, local individuals are opening up about their mental health journeys—sharing their struggles, victories, and the resources that have helped along the way.

Today, we’re sharing Naiya Budler's story about how alone she felt when she moved to Gunnison to start at Western. She openly admits that asking for help saved her life. She reminds us that while many of us suffer in silence, we do not have to or need to suffer, that there is help available.

If you're feeling alone... you're not.
Asking for help can save your life💚
1-844-493-talk 📱 
Or text talk to 38255

Watch the video, listen to Naiya's words, and remember: just start somewhere. Ask for help.

📍 Stay tuned as we continue to share more personal stories in the coming weeks.

Tonight @thedivegunnison 6:30pm
Brothers Helping Brothers, in connection with CB State of Mind, is a new take on men’s mental health in the Gunnison Valley!  Join us in safe, substance-free spaces where men get together and talk in a peer-supported environment. The funds we raise remain 100% local and cover all the expenses of the Dude Talk Dinners. We intend for the men in our community to create deep connections throughout the valley and know they are not alone. There is always someone willing to listen, peers supporting them through challenges, and celebrating successes!

Dude Talk Dinners are FREE to everyone who attends. Discussions include the highs and lows of life and how to find support for what you’re going through, and no topic is off-limits!

For more information, please get in touch with us at info@gunnibhb.com

✨ Pause. Reset. Breathe. ✨

In the middle of the chaos, take a moment for yourself. Unclench your jaw, soften your brow, relax your shoulders… and just breathe. Your mental well-being matters, and small moments of mindfulness can make all the difference.
