 Coven - a fully #vegan grocery, deli, and bakery!

Not in my town, but I like to pay a visit to when I'm in Hamilton or Kitchener 🌱

Owned by the coolest punk #vegans in the land.

 Love the memory recall that happens with music.

I was totally teleported back to a time years ago driving around Algonquin Park this time of the year with a good friend. 

She turned to me in awe with how perfectly this song matched together with the beauty that surrounded us in that moment.

Absolutely gorgeous.

 "Oregon launches legal psilocybin access amid high demand and hopes for improved mental health care."

I wholeheartedly agree that psychedelic-assisted therapy requires accessible and equitable access.

This should not be a "boutique style" therapy for the privileged. Exploring consciousness is a birthright. 

Mental health care IS health care.

 I could have definitely received a diagnosis of Generalized Anxiety Disorder as far back as early childhood.
 
As someone who now provides support to people who live with
anxiety (& other MH conditions) I often think about my younger self & how hard it was to interact with the world. 

I'm not sure how no one noticed me struggling. Instead, I got labeled 'quiet.' That label haunted me then & still does.

Did you invisibly struggle like this in childhood in the 80s and 90s? 

I SO get it.
