Mental Health is Important 👊
When it comes to things you can do to take care of your mental health and wellbeing, mindfulness is a great technique that can help with stress, anxiety, sleep, and more.
But what exactly is ‘mindfulness’ and how do you even do it?

- Set screen time limits on certain apps.
Dive into the power of journaling.
It's more than penning thoughts—it's a journey to inner clarity and emotional wellness. Studies reveal its ability to cut stress, uplift mood, aid sleep, and boost confidence.
Writing about tough moments facilitates constructive processing, easing emotional challenges. Engaging with feelings fosters self-awareness, enriching mental health.
Pause life's chaos; grasp what's within. Unravel emotions, understand thoughts and regain control. Journaling is a mental game-changer. By capturing your inner world, gain clarity, feel better, and navigate life with a newfound perspective.

"Wishing you a Merry Christmas from Lifeline Fiji!
Remember, you're not alone. Reach out to friends, family, or us at Lifeline Fiji. Your feelings matter, and support is just a call away.
Warmest wishes for comfort and connection during this festive season."

Maintaining good mental health looks and feels different on each of us, so it’s not always obvious when someone you know is struggling and in need of help.
There are however some behaviours, thoughts and patterns that are common signs of mental health distress. They may not be immediately obvious, but they can be easy to spot when you know them.
How you can help someone isn’t always clear either. We all have different needs, and the best support often starts with the time to understand what they may be.

3 tips on supporting a young person through the holiday season
The holiday season may bring its own set of difficulties for children and young people. If you're worried about a young loved one, there are some extra steps you can take to foster connections and provide support.
1. Encourage a healthy perspective on the holiday season. Explain that it's okay not to feel cheerful all the time and that it's normal to experience ups and downs.
2. Validate their emotions, even if they don't align with the festive mood. Let them know it's okay to feel sad or stressed, and that you're there to help.
3. Create a safe space for open dialogues. Encourage children and young people to express their thoughts and feelings about the holidays, including any concerns or stress they may have.
