White Ribbon Day marks the start of 16 Days of Action against domestic and sexual violence. 💪
This campaign, led by men, aims to end male violence against women. Men worldwide show their support by wearing a white ribbon. 🎗️

Did you know 1 in 4 women will experience sexual assault or attempted assault in their lifetimes? (National Audit Office, 2025)

This year’s theme, , reminds us that letting sexism slide—like jokes, catcalling, staring or comments—puts women and girls at risk. Every time we ignore harmful behaviour, we miss the chance to create a safer, more equal world. 🌍

Let’s speak up and take action. Together, we can make a difference.

💜 White Ribbon Day – 25 November 💜

Today marks the start of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, a global call to end violence against marginalised genders.

White Ribbon Day invites men and boys to take a clear stand:🤍 Never commit, excuse, or stay silent about violence against women.

Led by White Ribbon UK, the campaign challenges harmful attitudes, promotes healthy masculinity, and champions a culture of respect, equality, and accountability.

Ending gender-based violence is everyone’s responsibility, and together, we can create safer communities for all survivors.

✨ Why Christmas Can Be Hard for Our Mental Health ✨

We don’t talk about it enough, but the truth is: Christmas can feel heavy.
The pressure to be cheerful, social, grateful, present, organised , festive — all at once — can be overwhelming.

Maybe you’re missing someone.
Maybe the financial stress is real.
Maybe family dynamics are tough.
Maybe you just don’t feel merry this year… and that’s okay. 💛

Here’s your reminder:
Christmas is only one day.
Just one day in your whole year. If it’s hard, it doesn’t define you. If you need quiet instead of celebration, that’s valid. If you feel relief when it’s over, that’s normal too.

Be gentle with yourself.
Take breaks.
Protect your peace.
Do what you can — not what you “should.”
Your mental health matters, today and every day. 🤍

Reflecting vs. Reacting 🧠✨

One of the most powerful skills you can build for your emotional wellbeing is learning to pause.
The space between what happens and how you respond.

💥 Reacting
Comes from urgency.
From old wounds, stress, overwhelm.
It’s fast, protective, impulsive.
It often leaves us feeling regretful or misunderstood.

🌿 Reflecting
Comes from awareness.
From grounding, curiosity, and self-regulation.
It allows you to choose a response that aligns with your values, not your momentary emotion.

🛑 The Pause = Your Power
Before responding, try asking yourself:
• “What am I actually feeling?”
• “What is this moment really asking of me?”
• “What outcome do I want?”
• “Will this matter tomorrow, next week, next year?”

🧘‍♀️ Your nervous system needs time to catch up.
A few deep breaths, a step away from the situation, or naming your emotion can shift you from reactivity to reflection.

✨ You’re not responsible for your first thought but you are responsible for what you do next.
Healing happens in that space.

From a therapist who believes in your capacity to pause, reflect, and choose differently. 🤍
