Happy New Year!
January
January is Mental Wellness Month
January 18 we are celebrating Mental Health Resources Day in Houston, TX!
Mental Health Resources Day
With Mental Health Resources Day, we aim to educate the community of local, state, and national resources available for mental health support, from local psychiatrists to NAMI. With speakers from SAMHSA, the Houston Recovery Center, and so many other local services, this event is sure to be both fun and informative!
Volunteer Spotlight
This month we are spotlighting Jimi! Jimi has become an Emerging Scholar through the Emerging Scholars Fellowship Program with Active Minds, and we are lucky enough to have him as a volunteer! He is a valued team member and we are so thankful that he helps with our Youtube channel. Thank you, Jimi!
DAISY’s Book Club
Reading has been shown to improve empathy, and it can help us use our phones less, so reading is a great hobby to pick up! This month, DAISY recommends The Anxious Generation by Johnathon Haidt. This book is really informative on the mental health issues that kids, teens and young adults are now facing with the onslaught of technology, social media and ever-changing social pressures.
Thank you for joining us on this mental health journey! Follow us on Instagram, Facebook or LinkedIn to stay up to date.

DAISY’s Deep Reads Book Club November 19th
🌼 DAISY’s Deep Reads Book Club 🌼
Read. Reflect. Heal. One Page at a Time.
Presented by Creative Mental Wellness
📖 What is DAISY’s Deep Reads?
DAISY’s Deep Reads is an in-person book club launching in the Houston area—where mental health meets the magic of books. Each month, we’ll explore a new book that dives into topics like mental wellness, behavioral health, trauma, resilience, or substance use.
This isn’t just about reading—it’s about reflecting, connecting, and healing in community. Whether it’s a memoir, insightful guide, or narrative nonfiction, each selection is chosen to spark thoughtful conversation and inspire personal growth.
💬 Why Join a Mental Health-Focused Book Club?
📚 Mental Health Benefits of Reading:
-
- Get out of your own head: Books offer an escape from intrusive thoughts and chronic stress.
- Diminish rumination: Stories help redirect negative thought patterns and create space for new perspectives.
- Take a digital detox: Reading is a healthy break from social media, doomscrolling, and screen fatigue.
🤝 Mental Health Benefits of In-Person Connection:
- Combat loneliness: Group discussion nurtures a sense of belonging and shared experience.
- Promote empathy: Hearing others’ insights fosters understanding and emotional intelligence.
- Reduce stigma: Talking about mental health through literature creates a safe, open space for real conversation.
