All Right? Digest: September 2022
Kia ora Mental Health Awareness Week 2022 starts on Sunday and it couldn't come at a better time! There's been a lot going on, and we definitely need a week to be reminded to rest, reflect and reconnect... together!
Find out more about Mental Health Awareness Week.
It's an opportune time to take a moment to think about where we're at, what's going well and what we're finding tough. As well as reflecting on the things that make us feel good, it's a time to share a bit of aroha with others. The simple act of checking in with someone - even if it's just sharing a cuppa - can mean the world.
In this issue, we share a creative wellbeing booster and some awesome content from the Mental Health Foundation on ways you can reconnect to places and people that lift you up.
Koia kei a koe Aotearoa (you got this!).

It’s all right to reach out if you need to - we all need a bit of support from time-to-time.
