Constant demands and digital noise can easily cause us to lose our sense of grounding. When the mind disconnects from the present, focus and emotional balance quietly fade.

Noticing that this is happening is the first step; taking action is the next. That is why it is important to know how to reconnect, to restore clarity, calm, and presence in daily life.

At EQness, we use evidence-based anchoring techniques to help individuals and teams strengthen awareness and emotional balance.

Get in touch to learn more about our mindfulness programs and explore how anchoring can support you or your organisation.

Being attuned to kindness, whether noticing it, offering it, or receiving it, nurtures not only others but also our own wellbeing.

Neuroscience shows that even small acts of kindness activate the brain’s soothing system, releasing oxytocin and helping us feel more connected and balanced.
On World Kindness Day, let kindness guide you, whether you give it, receive it, or simply allow it in.

Every act of kindness matters, including the ones you offer to yourself.

Today is International Stress Awareness Day!
Stress is a natural part of being human, but awareness changes everything. How we respond makes all the difference.

Awareness begins with a pause. Take a moment to stop, breathe, and turn your attention inward. What sensations arise within you? What is your body asking for right now?

Maybe it needs a deep breath, a gentle stretch, or a moment of stillness.

When practiced regularly, these pauses break the cycle of automatic reactions that feed stress and help the brain build new pathways that support wellbeing.

A research published in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience shows that even one 10-minute mindfulness session can produce measurable improvements in attention.

This early response highlights the brain’s capacity to adapt, a reminder that mindfulness works from the very first step. But real transformation doesn’t come from isolated moments. It’s built through commitment and consistency, as each session strengthens the pathways that support focus, balance, and resilience over time.

Start your first 10-minute session with EQness today and experience how mindful change begins with one moment of awareness.

Mindful breathing is one of the most recognised practices for managing stress. Yet for many, sitting still and focusing solely on the breath can feel daunting, whether due to physical discomfort, restlessness, or a preference for more active forms of relaxation.

Integrating movement with breathing exercises can make mindfulness practice more accessible, sustainable and, ultimately, transformative, especially for those challenged by stillness.

This dynamic approach not only supports those who find traditional methods difficult, but also adds variety and depth to any wellbeing routine.

2.65 million Australians provide unpaid care for loved ones. Behind their compassion are real challenges: fewer work opportunities, higher financial strain, and postponed personal health needs. This National Carers Week is a call to ensure carers are supported, recognised, and cared for too.

Today is World Mental Health Day 💚
Mental health is just as important as physical health, and taking time to check in with ourselves and others can make all the difference.

Start with yourself
Take a pause and ask: How am I feeling? What do I need right now? A small action, like a stretch, a deep breath, or a moment of stillness, can restore balance.

Connect with others
A call, a message, or time with someone you care about strengthens connection and supports wellbeing for both of you.

Keep in mind: Mental health isn’t one day a year, it grows when we make daily space for care and connection.

Cardiovascular disease remains the world’s leading cause of death. Yet up to 80% of premature cases are preventable.

We often focus on risks like smoking, cholesterol, blood pressure, and diabetes. But one powerful factor is still underestimated: stress.

In our latest article, we explore this important topic — the hidden role of stress in heart health. Stress can trigger acute events and silently worsen long-term wellbeing, yet it continues to be overlooked.

This World Heart Day, let us change that together.

Stress is an under-recognised risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Discover why stress matters for heart health & what we can do about it.

R U OK? Day reminds us of the importance of one conversation sparked by a simple question. But in truth, there are two conversations that matter:

1. The one we start with others.

2. The one we have with ourselves.

Supporting others begins with supporting ourselves. In our latest blog, we share practical ways to prepare, start, and sustain supportive mental health conversations — and how to balance them with self-checks.

R U OK? Day reminds us of the importance of one conversation sparked by a simple question. But in truth, there are two conversations that matter:

1. The one we start with others.
2. The one we have with ourselves.

Supporting others begins with supporting ourselves. When we pause, notice, and care for our own wellbeing, we are able to show up with steadiness and compassion for those around us.
