May is Mental Health Month |
|
Wellness—it’s essential to living a full and productive life. We may have different ideas about what wellness means, but it involves a set of skills and strategies that prevent the onset or shorten the duration of illness and promote recovery and well-being. It’s about keeping healthy as well as getting healthy.
Pathways to Wellness— this year’s theme of May is Mental Health Month—calls attention to strategies and approaches that help all Americans achieve wellness and good mental and overall health.
Wellness is more than an absence of disease. It involves complete general, mental and social well-being. And mental health is an essential component of overall health and well-being. The fact is our overall well-being is tied to the balance that exists between our emotional, physical, spiritual and mental health.

Annual quarantine of sport-harvested mussels began early this year
The quarantine is in place to protect the public from shellfish poisoning
The annual quarantine of all sport-harvested mussel species along the California coast began April 22, 2013.
The annual mussel quarantine is for the prevention of paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) and domoic acid poisoning and is in effect as of April 22 because testing by the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) has detected elevated levels of domoic acid and high numbers of the algae that produce this toxin. Normally the quarantine runs from May 1 through October 31. This quarantine applies to all species of mussels harvested by the public anywhere on the California coast, including all bays and estuaries.
