As parents and carers, we know you want to show up for your kids, support their mental health, and encourage them to be the best they can be. An important part of showing up for our children, however, is first showing up for ourselves.
Practising gratitude helps us feel happier, more determined, optimistic and focussed - it can even help us sleep better!
When we are kind, our brain releases oxytocin. This leads to an increase in our self-esteem, energy levels and overall positivity.
Mindfulness encourages us to pay attention to the present moment, and reduces stress and anxiety
When we improve our emotional literacy we can work towards recognising our feelings and being able to manage them.
As we know, if we want to get better at something, we need to practise. Our wellbeing is no different.
Here are some simple ideas to help you practise Gratitude, Empathy, Mindfulness and Emotional Literacy every day. Because the more you practise, the better you will feel.
Having a quiet house might not always be possible but having a quiet mind for five minutes every day is. Whether it’s when the kids are napping, at school or just distracted by the latest episode of Bluey, take that opportunity to sit quietly, tap into your senses and focus on five things you can see, hear, feel and smell.

Paying attention to the things we have right now, and not worrying about what we on’t have. We practise this by noticing the positives around us.
Practising gratitude helps us to be thankful and appreciate what we have in our lives, rather than focussing on what we don’t have or what we want. When we practice being grateful, we start to scan the world to look for positives – this only takes 21 days! Practising gratitude every day increases our levels of energy, helps us to feel happier and more focussed, determined and optimistic. It even helps us have a better sleep, lowers levels of anxiety and depression and we are less likely to get sick.
