☀️ SUMMER HEAT SAFETY TIPS 🌡️

As the weather heats up, remember these simple tips to stay safe in the heat:

💧 Drink water often (even if you don’t always feel thirsty)
🧢 Keep cool by seeking shade and wearing light clothing
🏠 Keep indoor spaces cooler by closing curtains during the day (open windows and doors for airflow if you don’t have air conditioning)
☀️ Slip, slop, slap, and wrap when heading outdoors
👥 Check in on whānau, neighbours, and friends (especially older people and young children)
🐾 Make sure pets have fresh water, shade, and a cool place to rest (avoid exercise during the hottest parts of the day)

Take care, look after each other, and stay safe in the heat ☀️

Gosh, this is something so many people need to hear, as school is just one part of your journey 👇

If you are getting your exam results back today, remember that it is normal to feel upset or disappointed if you didn't get the results you hoped for.

No matter what happens, your results don't define you or your potential.

🎯 SETTING HEALTH GOALS FOR 2026? START SMART 💪

If improving your health is on your list for 2026, setting SMART goals can make all the difference. SMART goals help turn good intentions into habits you can actually stick with.

Here’s a simple way to shape your health goals this year 👇

✔️ SPECIFIC
Instead of “get fitter”, try “walk for 30 minutes, five days a week”.

✔️ MEASURABLE
Choose something you can track, like drinking eight glasses of water a day.

✔️ ACHIEVABLE
Start where you are. Small, realistic goals build confidence and momentum.

✔️ RELEVANT
Focus on what matters most to you, whether that’s more energy, better sleep, or less stress.

✔️ TIME-BOUND
Give yourself a timeframe, for example “book a health check by February”.

Progress doesn’t have to be perfect. Small steps add up over time. Here’s to a healthier, happier 2026 💙

📣 REMINDER: MEN’S HEALTH MATTERS ALL YEAR ROUND 💙

Movember might be done, and the moustaches might be gone, but the need to look after yourself remains the same.

No matter what you’re into, every fella needs a few basics: eat well, move a bit, go easy on the booze, and ditch the smokes and vapes. Simple as.

And as you clock up a few more birthdays, there are a couple of extra checks worth keeping an eye on too. Think of it like giving yourself a WOF, just without the hassle of finding a park.

🎄 FEELING THE YEAR-END RUSH? 😴

The lead-up to Christmas can feel full on, and it’s easy to get swept up in the busy days and long to-do lists.

If things are starting to feel a bit heavy, take a moment to rest or ask for support. Sometimes, a short pause is all you need, and things feel easier when you don’t carry them alone.

Be kind to yourself as we head into the holiday season. ✨
