Five steps to mental wellbeing
Below are five things, that according to research, can really help to boost our mental wellbeing:
 Connect - connect with the people around you: your family, friends, colleagues and neighbours. Spend time developing relationships with people who genuinely care about you and are good for your mental health.
 Be active - you don't have to go to the gym. Find an activity that you enjoy and make it a part of your life. If you are less mobile take up gardening or anything that encourages you to be more active that you like doing.
 Keep learning - learning new skills cam give you a sense of achievement and a new confidence. So why not sign up for that cooking course, start learning to play a musical instrument, or figure out how to fix your bike?
 Give to others - even the smallest act can count, whether it's a smile, a thank you or a kind word. Larger acts, such as volunteering at your local community centre, can improve your mental wellbeing. Volunteering gives you a sense of purpose, develops your skills, supports new learning, gets you active and you will meet other people in the same situations as you.
 Be mindful - be more aware of the present moment, including your thoughts and feelings, your body and the world around you. Some people call this awareness "mindfulness". It can positively change the way you feel about life and how you approach challenges.

Sending a little extra love to anyone who isn’t feeling festive this season.

To those of you the ones who are tired of being strong, carrying too much, navigating change, healing and recovering. For those spending the holidays alone and maybe missing someone. For those who feel alone or don’t quite fit the “merry” mood everyone expects.

You don’t have to force joy to be worthy of love.

You don’t have to be something you’re not to prove you’re okay.

You don’t have to “be” anything. It’s enough to show up as you are.

As I always say - try to be kind and compassionate with yourself. Try to savour the small moments - a warm smile with a stranger, your favourite music, a film you love, a warm drink. Treat yourself with compassion and kindness. Take it one breath, one hour, one kind choice at a time.

With love

Happy Winter Solstice - the longest of nights, and shortest of days. The pause in the wheel as the sun stands still before the light begins to return.

It is a magical night. A symbolic reminder that even in the depth of Winter the light of our souls still shines. Hope never fades.

So pause and reflect.
Light a candle, take a breath, and ask yourself:
What am I ready to leave behind?
What do I want to grow in the months ahead?

Feel the light within you burning steadily.

May your home be warm, your heart steady and your next season gently begin.

Blessed Yule Greetings from my house to yours.
With love

About Us

Cannock Chase District is a very positive proactive community supporting all of our community. This group is a networking group to help improve communication between statutory, private and voluntary service providers to ensure that we know what is going on, when and where, in our district. This information can then be passed on to service users. We aim to be more effective in applying for funds in future, supporting new groups as well as existing members and ultimately providing a better provision for our service users.
