📅 Every second Tuesday at 12 PM, we’ve come together online - this year and last - to learn, share, and reflect on the psychology behind various health conditions. This month, our focus on loneliness led to an incredibly enriching session for our community. ❤️ It reminded us of the vital importance of connection - not just with others, but also with ourselves. Through heartfelt discussions, we explored the many layers of connection, from fleeting moments with others to the deeper practice of reconnecting with our inner selves, the natural world, and our personal passions. 🌱✨ A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Rosemary Higgins for her expert guidance in facilitating these meaningful conversations and helping us create such a profound sense of shared humanity and belonging. 🙏 Psychology

💬 Let’s Talk About Loneliness – Online Gathering Tomorrow 💬
Tomorrow at 12 noon, we’ll come together for our monthly online workshop to reflect on a topic close to the heart – loneliness.

We’ll use insights from a new Australian study showing how ongoing feelings of loneliness can affect our health and even shorten our lives. It’s a reminder that connection isn’t just nice to have – it’s vital.

This will be a friendly, open peer discussion where we can share stories, ideas, and ways to support ourselves and others. 🌿

Mindfulness CPD Vietnam – Day 4 Update

As we begin Day 4 of our Mindfulness CPD journey in Vietnam, we find ourselves pausing in deep gratitude — for the setting, for each other, and for the unfolding of wisdom through shared experience.

This retreat has become more than just a professional development opportunity. It’s been a meaningful immersion into cultural competency, the nuances of deliberate practice, and this morning, a heartfelt exploration of how we can support relational health following a health or life crisis.

Whether we’re early-career psychologists, seasoned clinicians, or lifelong learners in this field, each one of us is being shaped — slowly and gently — by this experience. Through reflection, dialogue, and connection, we are not only refining our skills, but also growing in presence, insight, and compassion.

Thank you to everyone for bringing your openness and depth to this shared journey. Here’s to the days ahead — may they continue to nourish both our practice and our personhood
