Thanks for all support we are giving our comrades arrested on June 25th. However we should
1. Prioritize safety first.
2. Understand that silence is a traumatic response
3. Do not pressure them to talk, instead reassure them with calm statements.
4. Accept that the story may come later.

At Fadhili Wellness, our framing with activists and communities seeks to move from 'What is wrong with you' to 'What happened to you? How do you name what happened to you? What can make you well again or better?' #WellnessIsResistance #HealingSolidarity

[Fadhili Wellness @FWellnessKE]

We define wellness as connection, joy, spiritual grounding, dignity, rest - not just symptom reduction. #HealingSolidarity #WellnessIsResistance

Wellness Pods are vital spaces for activists to engage in self care practices such as meditation and yoga. As tranquil spaces, they offer respite from our daily struggles. #HealingSolidarity #WellnessIsResistance

How do we measure success? Is it by 'results, outcomes or KPIs' only? What about holistic well-being? We are called upon to center rest, community and sustainability as essential acts of resistance. #HealingSolidarity #WellnessIsResistance

"Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self preservation, and that is an act of political warfare" - Audre Lorde. Collective care is relational. We must build trust and support each other. We must cultivate safe and inclusive spaces. #HealingSolidarity

#EndFemicide #StopKillingChildren

[Fadhili Wellness @FWellnessKE]

We stand in solidarity with those who marched on #StopFemicide . The psychosocial toll of femicide affects not only the immediate family but the broader community and our overall perception of public safety and health.

Men's Mental Health Awareness Month in June strives to shatter the harmful stigma that keeps men from seeking help for emotional struggles. With men dying by suicide at significantly higher rates than women, it is crucial to foster a supportive culture and emotional well-being.
