Mental Health and Wellness Videos

Our phones are one of the few things we are rarely without. When smartphones were first created, it was intended for people to have access to computer technology at their fingertips. While our phones are invaluable tools for vast information, we can also use the phone to optimize our functioning. While many people only use their phones for texting, navigation, social media, entertainment, and emails, Black Mental Wellness also invites you to use your phone (the computer in your pocket) as a health resource. Here is a list of our favorite videos that can be used for healthy entertainment. These resources are provided for informational purposes only.
