It’s the perfect time to get outside and into the sunshine ☀

Getting outside for just 5 to15 minutes a day can:
😊 boost your mood
💤 improve quality of sleep
🧠 improve mental health and wellbeing, and
😰 lower stress levels.

But remember, it’s also important to be sun safe and to avoid overexposure to UV rays.

Christmas and the holiday season is supposed to be a joyous time.

The reality is that it can be a difficult time for those who struggle to navigate the celebrations and festivities going on around them.

They might be dealing with the strain of financial pressure, work demands, recent events, grief, or a challenging family situation.

If there's someone you know who's finding this time of year tough you can make a difference by checking in and having a meaningful conversation.

'Tis the season to be asking R U OK?
