Did you know that even when someone didn’t have the best start in life, they can still develop positive well-being? We can all gradually raise our level of well-being by making good choices, looking after ourselves, connecting with others, and having a positive/optimistic outlook.

It’s Mental Health Awareness week – an important topic for all of us, as there is NO HEALTH, without MENTAL HEALTH! The New Zealand Mental Health Foundation’s research has found that building five key actions into our lives is important for us all - including our families. They are:
• connect, me whakawhanaunga
• give, tukua
• take notice, me aro tonu
• keep learning, me ako tonu
• be active, me kori tonu.
