Little Acts of Care for Your Mental Health

Give Back with Purpose

Fashion-forward and community-minded, viral brand Grey Bandit is using its platform for more than style. Through its mental health initiative Ride the Wave, the brand’s founders—both of whom have shared their personal mental health journeys—are helping to foster connection and erase stigma. Ride the Wave was created to remind people they are not alone, and that their struggles are valid. Each piece in the collection is designed to spread awareness, encouragement, and kindness—and 30% of net proceeds go directly to mental health organizations. It’s a feel-good way to give back and wear your values proudly.

Self-Care Comfort

Sometimes, the most powerful self-care is as simple as a warm bath. But let’s face it: most tubs aren’t exactly designed for comfort. That’s where BADESOFA comes in. Their luxurious, ergonomic bath pillows transform your bath into a true sanctuary. Designed to support your neck and back, BADESOFA helps relieve tension, soothe sore muscles, and create space for stillness—promoting restful sleep and reducing anxiety. Because making time for relaxation isn’t indulgent—it’s essential.

A Soft Touch 

When life feels overwhelming, sometimes what we need most is a hug. Enter Percy, from the brand For The Cubs, the weighted stuffed animal that wraps you in comfort. Weighing in at 3 lbs. and covered in ultra-soft fur, Percy delivers the calming benefits of deep pressure therapy—helping to quiet racing thoughts, ease anxiety, and promote a sense of peace. It’s perfect for kids, teens, or adults.

This May, honor Mental Health Awareness Month by embracing the little things that support healing—whether that’s through giving, relaxing, or simply holding something soft. Because every step toward caring for yourself is a step toward changing the conversation around mental health.
