1. Random acts of kindness make a real difference: this video provides a reminder to us all, that one simple way to make ourselves feel better, is by being kind. It’s good for our own mental health as well as those who we’re kind to.
See our blog post here to watch the video.
2. Self care and your well being during difficult times: looking after ourselves is often the last thing we do. We’re good at advising and supporting everyone else, but rubbish when it comes to us. So this little video is a reminder of some simple things you can do to look after your own well being and mental health.
See our blog post here to watch the video.
3. Feeling anxious? Ideas to cope with anxiety: for some people, anxiety is something they only experience before a game, or going back to school after the holidays, or before a job interview. For others, it is crippling and effects every part of their life. Whatever your relationship with anxiety, this video suggests a few things you can try to help respond to it more positively.
