October is a big month for mental health!

We’ve had Mental Health Awareness Week and World Mental Health Day. Whilst these moments in the calendar serve as great reminders to care for our mental health, we all know that looking after our wellbeing goes beyond one day or week of the year.

We talk about the Five Ways to Wellbeing all the time here at the Mental Health Foundation, and that’s because they're proven to work. Why not give them a go and see how you feel?

We'd love to hear about the unique ways you bring them to life – let us know in the comments below!

🎧 The second episode of Moments that Matter is now live!

Episode 2 of Moments that Matter features champion boxer Mea Motu — a powerful story of resilience, courage and identity.

Mea has overcome a lot – including years of domestic violence that almost cost her everything.

At 13 years old, she found an unlikely outlet: boxing. Through sport, she rebuilt her sense of self and reclaimed her freedom.

In conversation with Jehan Casinader, Mea shares what it means to be an “overcomer” and how her children and coach helped her find her purpose.

🎉 THANK YOU, AOTEAROA! 🎉 Last week was Mental Health Awareness Week. We’ve been running it since 1993 (when there wasn’t much open kōrero about mental health), and 32 years later, it’s bigger than ever.

This year we focused on the benefits of topping up our mental health together. We came together to put the Five Ways to Wellbeing into practice, and shared some of the simple actions people can do with others to boost their wellbeing. It was incredibly heartwarming to see so many of you engaging with the kaupapa, and showing us how you Top Up Together.

Our wellbeing grows through connection and kindness - when we look out for ourselves and each other. With aroha and support from friends and whānau, even the hardest days become a little easier to face. We’ve got this, whānau. 💚
