What do you do when you don't feel OK?

Hi y'all!

It was World Mental Health Day last week and our local Safe Haven ran a workshop to share information about how we combat anxiety and depression...

Lovely staff scribbled these ideas on the flip chart as we brainstormed...

What do you do when you're not feeling OK?

  • There is an article on the BBC web site which suggests that being near, on, in, or under water has a far more powerful impact on our mental, and physical health:

    "'The water literally washes the anxiety away':

    Many of us associate the sea with feeling happy, relaxed and switching off from life's stress.

    But there's growing belief that being near, on, in, or under water has a far more powerful impact on our mental, and physical health than we might realise. ...   "

    Thank you so much for this link...

    I moved out of London almost 10 years ago and although I now live in a beautiful, green and peaceful area, I REALLY miss the Thames towpath, that constant flow of water (west of the city it's still clean and pretty)...

    I've just joined an outdoor pool again (brrrrrrr!) and I can't describe how well I feel when I'm weightless, in the water, in the open air...it's better than any therapy I can think of :o)

    Enjoy your day ATFOM!
