Shift your Mindset Workshop
In recognition of October being mental health awareness month, Squash BC is providing a forum to discuss mental fitness to help you and those around you to deal with the impact of COVID and hopefully a safe return to squash.
Dr. Bonnie Henry says "Sport is an important part of mental and physical health for children, youth, families, and our communities." Mental fitness is about feeling ready to play again. Learn how you can find balance with work, family, and exercise and do it safely.
