Rest isn't a reward, it's part of being healthy.

Taking time to pause helps your mind recover, your body recharge, and your best work emerge.

💬 What does rest mean to you?

📱 Social media connects us—but it can also affect our mental wellbeing.

Ask yourself:

• Do you compare yourself to media personalities?

• Do you feel anxious after scrolling?

• Does scrolling affect your sleep or focus?

[+Circle Community Health Advancement Organization @pluscirclechao]

😴 Sleep isn't a luxury it's essential for your mental health.

Getting 7–9 hours of quality sleep can improve memory, reduce stress, boost focus, and help you manage your emotions better.

Tonight, choose rest. Your mind will thank you. 💙

💬 How many hours do you sleep daily?

[+Circle Community Health Advancement Organization @pluscirclechao]

Burnout doesn't always look like exhaustion.
It can show up as: 😴 Constant tiredness 🧠 Poor concentration 😤 Irritability ❤️ Loss of motivation 🤕 Frequent headaches
Recognizing the signs early can help protect your mental and physical health.

[+Circle Community Health Advancement Organization @pluscirclechao]

Mental health can no longer be a side conversation on our campuses.

On July 19, PCHAO held a health and educational awareness talk at the Mountain of Fire and Miracle Campus Fellowship at Federal Polytechnic, Ado Ekiti. 48 students attended and took part actively.

😌 Stress affects more than your mood it affects your whole body.

💧 The water you drink could protect your health or put it at risk. Not all water that looks clean is safe to drink.
Contaminated water can carry harmful germs that cause diseases such as cholera, typhoid, dysentery, gastroenteritis, and polio, many of which are preventable.

[+Circle Community Health Advancement Organization @pluscirclechao]

The water you drink may be clean... but is the way you store it safe? 💧

Many households store water for daily use, especially where the water supply is irregular. However, clean water can quickly become unsafe if it's stored improperly.

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

Every baby deserves the healthiest possible start.

Newborn screening - a quick, simple check in your baby’s first days of life –
can pick up a range of conditions early, including:
⭕ Congenital heart conditions
⭕ Sickle cell disease
⭕ Congenital hypothyroidism
⭕ Hearing loss
⭕ Clubfoot
⭕ Cleft lip and palate

Catching them early helps families get the right care and support sooner –
and gives every child the best chance to grow and thrive.

💧 Are you drinking enough water, or just waiting until you're thirsty?

In Nigeria's hot weather and busy daily routine, it's easy to forget to stay hydrated. But dehydration doesn't always announce itself with extreme thirst.

[+Circle Community Health Advancement Organization @pluscirclechao]

This means the body typically requires more fluids to stay properly hydrated and maintain optimal performance.

[+Circle Community Health Advancement Organization @pluscirclechao]

💧 You can survive weeks without food… but only days without water.
Many people go through their day severely dehydrated without even realizing it. Fatigue, headaches, poor concentration, dry skin, and low energy are often signs your body is simply asking for one thing: WATER

[+Circle Community Health Advancement Organization @pluscirclechao]

A simple hydration check?
If you constantly feel tired, dizzy, have dry lips, or dark urine, your body may be asking for more water. 💧

[+Circle Community Health Advancement Organization @pluscirclechao]

⚠️ Remember:

These are general recommendations, your actual water needs depend on:

✔️ Weather/climate

✔️ Physical activity

✔️ Health condition

✔️ Diet

✔️ Age and lifestyle

[+Circle Community Health Advancement Organization @pluscirclechao]

👨 Men (3–4 Litres Daily)

Men generally have:

• Higher muscle mass

• Larger body size

• Higher metabolic rate

• Greater water loss through sweat and physical activity
