Penelope is great at reminding us that mental health is all about balance. She takes plenty of breaks for play, snuggles and sleep, we could all use a little more of that in our buy lives. Take time to paws, breathe and refresh.

Emotional intelligence means being aware of your feelings and understanding, managing and expressing them in healthy ways.

When we develop our emotional intelligence, we communicate more clearly, handle stress better and build more supportive relationships, both at work and in our personal lives.

Emotional intelligence isn’t just about emotions, it’s a life skill that transforms how we connect, cope and lead.

Stress doesn’t just live in your head. It creeps into your muscles, your sleep, your heartbeat. Stress can show up as tension, fatigue, headaches and restless nights. It speaks through a racing heart, a tight chest or an uneasy gut. Even when your mind is trying to manage quietly your body can speak loudly. Chronic stress can wear you down over time, that’s why it’s so important to stop, take a breath and listen to what your body is telling you. 🧠♥

The early days of parenting can be joyful, but also challenging, exhausting, and isolating. For many families, extra support is the key to building confidence and wellbeing.

During Infant Mental Health Awareness Week 2025, we want to highlight Melbourne Postpartum Services, a trusted local provider offering tailored care to new parents experiencing postpartum challenges.

Whether it’s help with baby settling, emotional support, or practical guidance, their team is here to walk alongside families through this important transition.

At Pakari, we know that strong, supported parents create strong, secure children. If you or someone you know needs help, don’t hesitate to reach out.

Its Men’s Health Week and we are focusing on mate-ship, connection and belonging.

Research shows that men with strong social connections live longer, healthier lives. Without those bonds, health outcomes can decline, mentally and physically.

At Pakari, we believe that connection is care and there is an important connection between generations. This week, men, we encourage you to reconnect with old mates or reach out to someone younger or isolated and be intentional about building those connections.

Together, this builds resilience in each other and our communities.

Remember, men often talk shoulder to shoulder or side by side during shared activity’s. A walk, a task or a chat over coffee. That’s when the real conversations happen.

So, invite someone in. Ask for help. Share a story. Be that mate.

Setting Boundaries at Work Protects Your Mental Wellbeing

Clear boundaries help you stay mentally well, protect your energy, and create space for rest and recovery.

Knowing when to say no and prioritising your time isn’t selfish, it’s essential.

✅ Avoid burnout
✅ Boost productivity
✅ Increase job satisfaction
✅ Make space for what matters most

Healthy boundaries aren’t walls, they’re the foundation of sustainable work and wellbeing.

This photo was taken during Jason’s second round of chemotherapy, smiling, courageous and full of the quiet determination that continues to inspire all of us.

At Easter, Jason was diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer, we are incredibly grateful for the wonderful medical team supporting Jason. He is responding well to the treatment and so positive throughout this journey.

To focus fully on his health, Jason has stepped back from his role at Pakari. Brianna has taken the lead in guiding the organisation forward with Jasons heart remaining at the centre of everything we do. We are so proud of the team who continue to support Jason and Bri while carrying Pakari's mission forward during this time.

We are deeply thankful for the love, encouragement, and support we have received. Your messages, prayers and kindness mean more than words can express and serve as a powerful reminder of the community we belong to and the values that ground all our work.

When you are struggling, asking for help can be the hardest step, but the most powerful. Whether it’s talking to a friend, seeking professional support, or connecting with a group, reaching out is an act of courage.

Today we celebrate nurses, not just for what they do, but for who they are: compassionate, resilient, and deeply human.

In mental health, nurses hold space for others every day. They listen, advocate, and walk alongside people in their most vulnerable moments. But who is holding space for them?

This year’s theme reminds us that caring for the carers is not optional — it’s essential.

When nurses feel supported in their own mental health and well-being, they are better equipped to provide safe, empathetic care.

At Pakari, we stand with our nursing community — especially those working in mental health — and advocate for systems that care for them as much as they care for others.
