The COVID-19 pandemic has been a challenging time for managing our mental health.
Lockdowns, social distancing requirements, travel restrictions, and the constantly changing position we find ourselves in is stressful. This makes prioritising our mental health and wellbeing more important than ever.
Good mental health is when we can cope with the stressors of our daily lives, participate in loving relationships, contribute to our community, and work towards our goals. Everyone has mental health. And we can all benefit from looking after our own mental health and the mental health of our communities.
This World Mental Health Day – October 10 – the message is simple: “Look after your mental health, Australia.”
The lovely team over at “Look after your mental health Australia” has created some amazing calendars, filled with ideas for ways to reflect, have fun, and find connections through October.
