Wellbeing Assistance

Wellbeing Assistance Movement - Mindfulness - Mindset
Personalised, adaptive, and trauma-informed wellbeing practices for all.

My name is Maya and I started Wellbeing Assistance as a way to help people establish their personalised approach to wellbeing. Drawing on my education (Diploma in Art-therapy, BA and MA in Philosophy with Majors in Education, MA in Sociology and currently studying Grad Cert in Mental Health), training (500 RYT yoga teacher) and work experience (in Not For Profit and Disability) I help my clients establish lifestyle changes that support their wellbeing and life satisfaction.

Decided to share this one, because it's both funny and accurate.

For the lucky ones, who never struggled with depression it might be a helpful insight to better understand others.

And for those who did experience depression or burnout, it's a reminder to be gentle and understanding with yourself.

Having a good life requires both inner work and good connections with our community and environment.

At some point , each of us will face challenges greater than the resources we already have (that's why we experience it as a challenge).

These challenges force us to change and adapt. Sometimes, it might be better to develop our inner resources: our skills, talents, clarity, drive, and so on. Sometimes, it may make more sense to expand our social circle or request assistance we never thought would be needed.

I've witnessed it many times that even a small change can bridge the gap and allow a person to get from a place of confusion and stress to a place of confident action.

At Wellbeing Assistance, we support your growth in each and every aspect.

Are you a who has goals about improving mobility, self-regulation, and generally improving their wellbeing?

I might be a great match! With training in Support Coordination and Psychosocial Recovery Coaching I know what possibilities are offered by NDIS and can assist you with confidence on your journey.

I have a strong background in mental health and life experience, and I like watching people grow and get better!

Too often, services are provided in one-size-fits-all manner, leaving out those who require a more personal approach.

The last of six uplifting activities is exercising.
Our bodies are designed to move. Simple walk, dance, playing with children, or a dog can be sufficient to burn off the stress hormones and release the happiness ones.

Of course, a proper session of exercising can be even more beneficial, but little something is better than nothing.

Religion and spirituality aren't the same thing. Religion in a fundamentalist, extremist edition can be extremely harmful. However, a broadly understood spirituality is linked with many benefits.

Finding time to connect with something greater than yourself improves your wellbeing. It's unrealistic to make a decision to become a spiritual person (we still don't know why some people are and others aren't) but it's possible to remember that finding time for prayer, meditation, or other spiritual practice is important.

When you're sad and you know it, go and learn something new πŸ™ƒ

The funny facts. The in-depth analysis. The new experience to broaden your horizons.

The world is so complicated that it has an endless supply of learning opportunities. It might be a scary thing (I will never know enough) or a fascinating realisation (the adventure of learning is always waiting).

Do you like learning?
What is your favourite way of learning?

Having fun could be a prescription medicine.

Perhaps not only an apple but also a joke a day can keep the doctor away πŸ™ƒ

Our world has commercialised many playful activities and made them less accessible. But dancing in the kitchen, especially with your partner/child/pet, can be what keeps your heart healthy, your mind sharp, and your life a beautiful experience!

Singing in the shower or having that family karaoke night can be what keeps you engaged in your life.

I climb stuff πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ Why? I truly don't know, but it's fun! Following a cats motto, 'If I fits I sits' somehow feels funny. And yes, I'm almost 40 and not planning on quitting this habit!

What are your favourite ways to play?

For contrast: putting someone in solitary isolation is one of the worst forms of punishment and torture. We need other people for our psychological stability!

Yes, some relationships are overburdened and are a source of tension and stress, but positive interactions and relationships make us feel safe, connected, and feel good about life.

Having these good relationships in life requires skills. The art of conversation, genuine interest in other people, the will to be vulnerable at times.

Feeling lonely can diminish our life satisfaction, even if we consider ourselves successful in other areas of life, and it has effect both on our mental and physical health.

How can you improve relationships in your life?

We rise by lifting others! It's more than just a saying. We are wired for connection and cooperation. We might create ideologies that go against that, but the truth of our bodies is clear: when you are kind, you feel better!

Always? That depends on how much it takes for you to be kind. Committing to sharing resources that are already scarce in your life brings stress.

However, there are only few people who have absolutely no resources to share. And if anything, we can always offer a smile and a good word.

It's not a magic wand, but it works!

There are six proven ways of uplifting your mood:

1. Helping
2. Positive social interaction
3. Play
4. Learning something new
5. Spiritual practice
6. Exercising

Over the next two weeks, we are going to look closer at each of them.

Do you have your favourite?

For me, an introvert, it's definitely exercising and learning. But it might be because I work with people, so some daily positive interactions are part of the furniture.

Teaching mind-body practice that changes lives.

Bringing harmony and balance at a physical, mental and spiritual level is the main goal of yoga for me and that is the way I practice and teach yoga.

Having agile mind and body, inner focus and peace is something that can be learnt and yoga is an adventurous path leading there. The beginning is just right there, where you currently are. Whether you are experiencing health problems or are at the peak of your physical fitness - yoga provides you with tools to improve your wellbeing. Having experienced all of the yoga benefits, sharing these skills and techniques became the passion that I share with my students of all age groups, all levels of fitness and all walks of life.
