Did you know that, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, one in five Americans will be affected by a mental health condition in their lifetime?  This means that virtually everyone in America has a friend or family member impacted by mental illness.  The goal of Mental Health Month is to help educate the public, combat the stigma that is often associated with mental illness, and find new ways to support ourselves and the ones we love.  

Because anxiety is something that is so common in our society, Pittsburgh Center for Complementary Health and Healing created a short meditation that you can do when you wake up in the morning, before bed, or anytime you are feeling tension.
