Guelph twins help others learn about mental health and wellness
Global News
Through their blog Twin Life, sisters Ashley and Breanna Bolliger of Guelph, Ont., have shared how they use hobbies and activities as a way to maintain their mental health.
Two sisters from Guelph are helping others manage and learn more about mental health through multiple creative outlets.
Through their blog Twin Life, which they began in university, the Bolliger sisters have shared their journey through hobbies and activities as a way to maintain their mental health.
Breanna Bolliger said it also gives them a chance to connect with other students going through similar experiences.
“A lot of the people that we speak with are students our age,” she said.
When the students find out that they’re connecting, talking and asking questions to the sisters, both of whom are similar in age and have gone through similar experiences, Breanna said it’s like a full circle moment for them.
She said the blog is so much more than just sharing their mental health experiences. She felt the pandemic would be the perfect moment to realize that taking time to pursue mental health endeavors can ease the mind and put you in a place that can be beneficial for your mental and physical health.
She also said the blog has changed their lives in the sense that they’re having an impact on others’ lives and learning from other people.
Since launching the blog, Breanna and Ashley Bolliger have also released a children’s book. Ashley said Carrie Can Fly Too is based on several personal experiences.
