Wrapping up the #CalmHeartQuietMind challenge at Kendra Scott Gives Back - Recap

June 05, 2023 The Big Silence

On Sunday May 28th, The Big Silence got together to move bodies, have fun, and talk about mental health! The event was sponsored by the Kendra Scott Foundation, and hosted by Tone It Up and was the culmination of our month long #CalmHeartQuietMind Challenge, celebrating May as mental health awareness month.

Karena Dawn and Angela Gargano led an energizing workout, and it was followed by a heart and soul centering sound bath with Amber Valdez. Iskra Lawrence led a conversation about body image, self-confidence and feeling empowered to accept yourself.

We're so grateful to the Kendra Scott Foundation, the staff of the flagship store on South Congress, and to every person who came to celebrate Mental Health with us at this special day!

WE ARE HERE TO BREAK THE SILENCE, TO BE A RESOURCE AND TO SUPPORT CULTURAL CHANGE IN MENTAL HEALTH.

The mental health foundation was founded in 2021 by Karena Dawn, a wellness entrepreneur and leading mental health advocate, based on her experiences growing up in a family impacted by mental illness (shared in her memoir, The Big Silence). It’s our goal to support people’s mental health journey from childhood to adult and to create a more joyful and loving place.
