🌿 This May, Mental Health Awareness is all about connection 🧠✨
Because, when we feel connected to others, our nervous system shifts into a state of calm and safety. Exactly what we need to nurture a healthy, resilient and balanced mental health state.
🫂Connection is not just emotional support, it’s essential regulation.
Spending time with the right kind of people, those who uplift us, understand us, and support us, can ease feelings of loneliness, reduce stress, and boost our sense of wellbeing and belonging.
It’s not about being extroverted, constantly social, or a social butterfly. It’s about finding meaningful connection in a way that suits who you are, surrounded by people whose presence makes you feel good.
💬 A chat with a friend, a brew with a family member, a shared walk in nature, a creative moment with someone who just gets you, a smile of acknowledgement to the familiar stranger you see on a regular basis as you go about your separate business, these simple acts of connection can have a powerful, positive impact on your mental health and wellbeing.
🌿This May, for Mental Health Awareness Month, let this post be your gentle reminder.🌿
"You don't have to do it all alone"
