Recently, the GitLab team member modern health benefit was updated to include therapy sessions. These sessions were added in addition to existing coaching sessions.
You can learn more about what Modern Health is all about in this short interview with their CEO and founder, or sign up directly in the Modern Health web platform or mobile app.

During the month of March, the Learning and Development team encouraged team members to check out the Time Off pathway in GitLab Learn. This pathway is featured on the Mental Wellness channel and includes resources like:
Take some time this month to learn strategies about how you can build your own rest ethic. Remember that team members can use the Growth and Development benefit to expense courses like the Time Off: Design your Rest Ethic course linked above.
And, keep an eye out for upcoming opportunities to connect with John Fitch and continute the discussion about building a rest ethic for yourself and your team.
If you can, take a break to do nothing with Lebron James for 30 seconds
