Every year on October 10th, the world comes together to celebrate World Mental Health Day. First celebrated in 1992, this day was created to acknowledge the millions of people who live with mental health challenges and to reduce the stigma around seeking help. Since 1994, each year has been guided by a theme chosen by the World Federation for Mental Health.
This year’s theme is access to services. It’s an important reminder that good mental health support should be available to everyone, no matter what they’re going through. Because mental health is not a luxury, it’s something we all have, and we all deserve to care for.
Mental health touches every part of life
When we talk about mental health, we often think about struggles, but it’s much more than that. Mental health is present in every moment of our lives. It’s a hard day’s work and a catch-up with friends. It’s the day you welcome new life, and the day you lose someone you love. It’s when you find the strength to reach out for support, and the long months spent waiting for help.
Mental health matters in the big, life-changing moments but also in the quiet, ordinary days. When life feels busy and overwhelming, and when nothing much is happening at all. That’s why it’s so important to keep the conversation going, and make time everyday for moments of self-care and self-reflection.
Why this day matters
World Mental Health Day is more than just a date on the calendar. It’s a moment to pause, reflect, and raise awareness for those who are still fighting stigma, those who are still waiting for care, and those who feel alone in what they’re going through.
But it’s also a day to remind ourselves that small actions matter too. Asking someone how they’re doing. Sharing our own experiences. Listening without judgment. These are things we can all do, every day, to help create a world where people feel safe to talk about their mental health.
The role of self-care
Talking about mental health often means looking at the bigger picture, better services, more awareness, stronger support systems. All of this is essential. But alongside these big steps, there’s also value in the small rituals we create for ourselves.
Taking a walk, writing down your thoughts, meditating, or even just allowing yourself ten minutes of quiet, these can all be ways to reconnect with yourself. They don’t solve everything, but they remind us that we deserve care.
For us at haruharu wonder, self-care is a big part of how we think about well-being. It’s not just about skin, it’s about creating calming, grounding moments in your everyday life.
If you can’t go to the spa, bring the spa to you
Not everyone has the chance to step away and spend a day at the spa. But that feeling, the pause, the care, the renewal, doesn’t have to be out of reach. You can recreate it at home, in your own way, through the rituals you make for yourself.
Our Black Bamboo Collection was created with this in mind. It’s more than bodycare, it’s an invitation to slow down and enjoy a spa-like moment wherever you are.
The light, soothing textures and the relaxing natural fragrances turn simple routines into calming experiences.
Applying a few drops of hair oil after a shower or during the day is more than hydration, it’s a gentle ritual, a small massage for your hair, and a pause just for you.
Massaging body oil into your skin isn’t only about protection, it’s also about warmth, comfort, and the reminder that you deserve to feel cared for.
These little rituals help turn everyday care into something deeper. They don’t replace professional support, but they do offer a way to breathe, reset, and be kind to yourself.
Essential Oils & Floral Notes: A Ritual for the Senses
There’s a reason why scent and texture matter so much in self-care. A calming fragrance can instantly shift your mood, grounding you in the present. A silky, nourishing texture invites you to slow down, to focus on touch, and to connect with your body in a mindful way.
The Black Bamboo line was designed with these ideas in mind. It’s not just about results for your hair or skin, it’s also about how the process makes you feel. The fragrances in our hair oil and body oil carry gentle citrus, herbal, and floral notes from essential oils, adding a sensory layer that feels refreshing, soothing, and subtly uplifting. They turn a simple routine into a little spa-like ritual, bringing comfort to both body and mind.
Mental health, every day
World Mental Health Day reminds us of the bigger fight, for access, for equality, for recognition that mental health matters as much as physical health. But it also reminds us to look at the small, daily steps we can take to care for ourselves and each other.
Checking in on a friend. Speaking kindly to ourselves. Making time for rest. Or creating tiny moments of calm in our routines, like a soothing skincare ritual before bed.
Because mental health isn’t just about the hardest days. It’s about every day. The days when everything happens, and the days when nothing does.
Together for a kinder world
On this World Mental Health Day, let’s stand together for better access to care, for more open conversations, and for the reminder that mental health belongs to everyone.
And while we fight for the bigger changes, let’s not forget the smaller ones too. The rituals, the pauses, the little things that help us feel grounded.
Because even if you can’t go to the spa, you can bring the spa to you. In the comfort of your home, in the space of a few quiet minutes, and in the way you choose to take care of yourself every single day. 💚
