Today is World Kindness Day — a beautiful reminder that compassion isn’t just an act, it’s a way of being.
At Mind-Life, we believe kindness grows from understanding — listening without judgement, being curious instead of critical, and meeting people where they’re at.
Our free resources and online learning modules help make that kind of connection possible — every day, in every conversation.

Meet Gillian Webb-Enslin, one of our dedicated Mental Health Recovery Workers at Bridges Health & Community Care.
💬 “I’ve found the Mind-Life resources developed through the Bridges project to be incredibly useful. They offer accessible, down-to-earth tools that support meaningful engagement and recovery-focused conversations in everyday practice. Their practicality really helps bridge the gap between clinical and lived experience approaches, which has been valuable for both myself and the people I work alongside.”
Thank you, Gillian, for sharing how Mind-Life is helping create more human, recovery-oriented care every day.
Did you know that the Mind-Life Mayhem podcast series features experienced practitioners and people with lived experiences? Their conversations open up a way of thinking that shares fresh insights on what the Mind-Life way of thinking and communicating is and the resources that are available for both help seekers and help providers.

Mind-Life challenges us to “Live” Different, “Think” Different and “Be” Different,outside the perceived limitations caused by the symptoms of mental illness.
This is a wicked problem that has attracted many to want to solve. It requires brave and fearless thinking that can create new ways of living and being.
Mind-Life’s main assumption is that an inability to live and lead a full life is not necessarily or simply because of the symptoms of mental illness, but much more from the reduced opportunities to exercise our human rights and live extraordinary lives.
Whilst our health and community models of service assist people to manage their symptoms better; these models can inadvertently disable a person’s identity, autonomy, and ability to live outside of the illness experience.
Mind-Life boldly disrupts the construct of “psychiatric disability” as we have known it- not by trying to change the person, but by challenging the narrative ,creating resources and hosting events that build opportunities to LIVE different, THINK different and ultimately BE different...
