Have been very quiet on this page for some time, so what a way to get back in the groove by sharing Children’s mental health week details 🙌

This years theme is “Let’s connect” so why not talk to our young people and each other about ways to make meaningful connections to support our mental health and well-being.

You can find details of how to get involved and resources online via the link below…

⭐️ Well-being Session ⭐️

On Thursday we had the pleasure of hosting Mindspace to give our members an insight into their service and offering.

Alice and Rachel shared details on the range of services offered, how to contact and answered all our questions.

This session was fantastic for our members to break down barriers when considering using these services such as counselling or being empowered with the knowledge to help family and friends in the future.

I myself feel better placed to support our members having a better insight into the service provided by Mindspace.

We look forward to joining forces again in the future.

Take today as the chance to talk about mental health. Your own or check in on somebody else and make sure they are doing ok?

It’s ok to ask for help when struggling 💚

What a day for running 🏃‍♀️ 🏃

Watching the London Marathon this morning never fails to amaze 🤩

The sheer amount of runners, the resilience, the athleticism, the reasons for which they run, the drive and determination just incredible.

The Great Scottish run also today, lovely route and some great memories of running it.

Huge well done to all those who ran in these events today and who inspire others to take part in future 🙌

This is so true…

💚 Take the time to sit with your feelings

💛 Feel your emotions without judgement

🧡 Accept them as they are

🤍 Express your emotions and let the healing commence

The more you feel your feelings, the easier it gets to understand them

Sometimes worth the reminder to put yourself first, this does not have to mean giving up what matters to you most 🧡

🤍 Body Positivity 🤍

So I did a thing today and ran in shorts, and also went to the shops after my run, very sweaty, red faced and in said shorts.

To some that may not be a big deal, but to me it was.

I, like others am very self conscious when it comes to my body, I have really struggled to give it the love and respect it deserves over the years, more so after having two children. Instead I have just picked out every flaw, every mark, every scar and chipped away at any confidence that was there.

I would say having tried to articulate my lack of body confidence over the years, it has been met with responses like “well your slim what do you have to worry about” as if this makes my feeling less valid.

If we are all truly looking to empower each other and promote body positivity this should include everyone. All shapes all sizes, everyone, period.

So today I felt good, not to start with but I wore the shorts, and as I ran (with a photo pit stop included) I wanted to celebrate today, as I looked at my body with more respect for what it can do, more kindness and love. At least for today ❤️
