Happy New Year from the team at headspace Port Mac!

As we step into a new year, let's look at making it our best year yet—not by pushing harder and trying to achieve unrealistic expectations, but by being more compassionate towards yourself.
Your mental health and wellbeing come first. Be kind to yourself. 💖

Sometimes Xmas isn't all sunshine and rainbows, so for our 9th Day of Wellnes, we'd like to give you some tips on how to reduce conflict and set boundaries💚
Choose your moments – Bring up tricky topics after meals or activities, not when everyone’s rushed or stressed.
Help out without being asked – Small things like setting the table or tidying up can prevent arguments before they start.
Take space when you need it – Go for a walk, put on headphones, or spend time with a pet to cool down.
Keep replies calm and short – If someone is edgy, a simple “Okay” or “Let’s talk later” can stop things escalating.
Avoid known trigger topics – If politics or school results always cause drama, steer clear during the holidays.
Use humour to defuse tension – Light, kind jokes or changing the subject can shift the mood without confrontation.
Set gentle boundaries – If a question feels too personal, try: “I’d rather not talk about that right now.”
Get allies – A sibling, cousin, or friend can help redirect conversations or give you an exit when things get tense.
Focus on small positives – Noticing what is going well—good food, music, a game—helps keep the mood steady.
