On Monday 18 Nov meeting the Rotary Club of Cooroy had the pleasure of hearing from Kellie from Kanyini Collective.
Founder and CEO of the Hoofbeats Sanctuary in Doonan Barb Blashki felt that after Covid more needed to be done for the community regarding their mental health and well- being. Barb put to the board the idea of a social enterprise to provide programs that could help and support them. It was accepted and the Kanyini Collective was born.

Feeling stressed? 😵‍💫

There are steps you can take to relieve the pressure and take back control. 💪

The 'four A's' can help when stressful situations come up. 👇

1️⃣ Avoid - if some stressors are avoidable, remember you can put yourself first and say no, or plan ahead. For example, you could leave earlier to avoid traffic.
2️⃣ Alter - try to improve your situation. This can involve communicating your feelings openly, asking others to change their behaviour or setting boundaries.
3️⃣ Adapt - shift your standards and expectations. Question yourself when you feel stressed and try to reframe your thoughts. Will this matter in a year?
4️⃣ Accept - sometimes things are out of our control, and we must accept things as they are. Try to talk with someone, forgive, and learn from mistakes.

Remember, the goal of managing your stress is a balanced life: with time for work, relationships, relaxation, and fun. It may take time to find what works for you, but it's worth it. 💛

You should practice meditation while walking, standing, lying down, sitting and working, washing your hands, doing the dishes, sweeping and drinking tea, talking to friends and in everything you do.

When you're washing up, you might be thinking about the tea afterwards and trying to get it over with as quickly as possible so you can sit down and have tea.
That means, however, that you do not live during the time when you are washing dishes.

When you wash dishes, washing dishes must be the most important thing in your life. And if you drink tea, then drinking tea must be the most important thing in the world.
