Deeply saddened to hear the passing of last Saturday.

Despite being the source of so much laughter for tens of millions of viewers, Perry’s private life was no laughing matter.
Behind the scenes, he was harbouring a dark secret. “From an outsider’s perspective, it would seem like I had it all,” he said. “It was actually a very lonely time for me because I was suffering from alcoholism.”

We often hear about the term "mindfulness"

But what actually is mindfulness you may ask ? And how do we practice mindfulness?

We all know the iconic Verne Troyer aka Mini Me who sadly past away in 2018 after a long battle with depression.

Anger isn't the enemy; it's a natural emotion, a signal from within, telling us something isn't right. It's OKAY to feel angry sometimes. In fact, it's healthy to acknowledge it. 💥

But here's the catch - what we do with that anger is what truly matters. Use it as a catalyst for positive change, fuel for your ambition, and a reminder to stand up for what you believe in. 🚀

Don't bottle it up; channel it into something productive, whether it's hitting the gym, creating art, or speaking your truth. 🔊

Let's break the stereotype that men should always be stoic and unfeeling. Embrace your emotions, understand them, and become a stronger, more authentic version of yourself in the process. 🙌

Remember, it's okay to be angry; it's a sign you're alive and passionate. Just make sure that passion is harnessed for good. 💪✨

🌬️ Finding Calm in the Storm 🌪️

Life's twists and turns can stir up anger in even the calmest of us. Here's five strategies to help you find your centre when anger comes knocking:

1️⃣ Deep Breathing: Inhale serenity, exhale frustration. Take a moment to breathe deeply and let go of anger's grip.

2️⃣ Physical Activity: Sweat out the stress. Whether it's a jog, hitting the gym, or a brisk walk in the British countryside, physical activity can soothe the soul.

3️⃣ Mindfulness and Meditation: Ground yourself in the present. Practicing mindfulness or meditation can be like hitting the reset button for your emotions.

4️⃣ Time-Out: It's okay to step away. When anger flares, take a break, find your space, and regain your composure.

5️⃣ Communication: Share your feelings. Talk to someone you trust, be it a friend, family member, or professional. Sometimes, just talking it out can bring clarity.

Remember, anger is a natural emotion, but how you handle it makes all the difference. Share your tips for keeping cool in the comments below, and let's support each other on this journey to emotional well-being. 💪❤️
