Did you know that October 10th is World Mental Health Day? What does that mean? Mental Health Australia is funded to run a national awareness campaign for World Mental Health Day on October 10. This year’s campaign has been developed with the aim of challenging negative perceptions around mental illness and encouraging people to take a more positive view mental illness.

Mental health, talking about it and a general understanding of it has for far too long been seen as taboo, something we don't talk about for fear of being looked at differently or negative reactions but this needs to stop. When 1 in 5 Australia's are affected by some type of mental health issue, it should be something spoken about more freely.

Whos excited for the warmer weather ☀️ here in Australia? Spring and summer are by far my favorite seasons. Summer time means so many delicious types of 🍉 fruit are in season and when you have 5 fruit bats for kids that is a huge plus. What is your favorite summer snack to cool down in the heat? Where definitely a smoothie 🥤 household here.

Do you do anything daily to help your mental health?⁠ Anything is better then nothing. If your really struggling right now, just pick one thing and try your best to do it. It doesn't matter if its having a nap to catch up on sleep, cooking yourself a nice meal or even something like having a shower or brushing your hair. When were in a bad mental state, even these simple tasks can be a huge challenge so don't try to do everything at once. A half done something is better then a perfect nothing.

Throwback to when we could travel freely. 4 of my kids having a quick lunch at Byron Bay on our way to visit there Nana. Please ignore Little J's cranky face and PJs, it's a 10-hour drive and he was well and truly over it by this stage ☺️
