NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, February 22, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- As we close out Black History Month and enter Women’s History Month, Black Woman Be Whole, LLC (BWBW) wants to help women focus on their well-being with the release of Hey Sis, are you Okay? A Playbook for Prioritizing your Mental Health on February 24, 2022. The highly anticipated book, published by SheEo Publishing, will be available at www.blackwomanbewhole.com.

Hey Sis, are you Okay? was created by psychotherapist Ednesha C. Saulsbury, LCSW, and Kimberly M. Moore (friends of 25+ years and Co-Creators of BWBW) as a resource for women to examine both their mental and emotional health. Saulsbury, a therapist of 10+ years (who is in private practice) believes Black women deal with unique mental health challenges because of societal pressures, gender role expectations, and discrimination. Saulsbury says “my goal is to create safe spaces where women are free to prioritize their mental health the same way they do with their physical health.” Saulsbury and Moore want to

change the cultural stigma that therapy, mental health, and self-care isn't for Black women, and encourage women to seek out resources to address their mental and emotional well-being.

Hey Sis, are you Okay? provides a safe space for self-expression and reflection by focusing on foundational topics including self-care, boundary setting, healthy relationships and communication. This playbook includes 100+ pages of exercises, activities, and tools to help women examine their mental and emotional health.
