National Mend a Broken Heart Month is observed every February and is dedicated to helping individuals heal from emotional pain, emphasizing the importance of mental and emotional well-being. Founded by the My Stuff Bags Foundation, this observance encourages self-love and support from friends and family during difficult times. Typical actions to celebrate include hosting heartfelt movie marathons, engaging in creative crafts, organizing game nights, treating oneself to spa days, volunteering, and maintaining a gratitude journal. These activities aim to foster community support and provide a counterbalance to the romantic focus often prevalent in February. The month also raises awareness about the effects of emotional stress, such as Broken Heart Syndrome, reminding participants that they are not alone in their struggles.
