It’s hard to remember some times but thoughts are not facts.

Not every thought deserves your attention. It’s okay to acknowledge and then let it go

A great time to discuss consent with our young people, regardless of your age you have the right to say no if you don’t feel like a hug. Even at Christmas 🎅🏻

'Tis the season of practicing consent. Here's a guide to help get it right.

I love this, a beautiful representation of something I say often.

Worry can rob us of the peace of the moment. Of course thinking about problems is important, but "thinking" beyond the limit of constructive problem solving is actually worrying - like spinning thought wheels, with no traction on the problem. One strategy to counter worry is to catch yourself worrying, visualise a stop sign 🛑, say "Stop! There I go again", and then go and change states (e.g., have a shower, call a friend, cook a meal) to help stop the worrying.

Today is world su***de prevention day. This years theme is creating hope through action. By taking action we can signal to people experiencing suicidal thoughts that there is hope and we care about them and support them. Take a moment to check in with those around you, and encourage them to seek help if they need it.
