It's and the message is: Ask R U OK? Any Day.

Whether it's your friend, family member, colleague, partner, or teammate, the people you care about go through life's ups and downs every day.

That's why we're encouraging people across Australia to check in and ask someone, 'are you OK?'.

Not just today, but ANY day. Because a conversation could change a life.

Make sure there's enough breathing spaces in the fire that is your life ✨️

"FIRE" a poem by Judy Brown

What makes a fire burn

is space between the logs,

a breathing space.

Too much of a good thing,

too many logs

packed in too tight

can douse the flames

almost as surely

as a pail of water would.

So, building fires

requires attention

to the spaces in between,

as much as to the wood.

When we are able to build

open spaces

in the same way

we have learned

to pile on the logs,

then we can come to see how

it is fuel, and absence of the fuel

together, that make fire possible

We only need to lay a log

lightly from time to time.

A fire

grows

simply because the space is there,

with openings

in which the flame

that knows just how it wants to burn

can find its way.

Today is World Mental Health Day.

Each year on October 10, we all have the chance to put mental health in the spotlight to raise awareness and break down stigma.

This year, we have focussed on the meaningful connections in our lives and why they are so important for good mental health.

Mental health is an issue that touches each and every one of us in different ways, and World Mental Health Day reminds us that we should be connecting with loved ones, connecting with our community and colleagues, connecting with services and supports if needed - and most importantly - connecting back with ourselves for good mental health.

🤔💭.. you’re welcome.

WHEN SOMEONE HAS GONE

When someone has gone,
you can bring them back, for just a little while, by talking them into life.

By painting a picture with your memories and your words, breathing their essence back into existence, for just a few moments.

When someone has gone,
you can see them again, for a minute or two, by being all the things they once were.

By allowing their best traits to filter through you, shaping your words, your thoughts, and your deeds back out into this world.

When someone has gone
you can feel them again, for just a moment, by playing their music and singing their favourite songs.

By giving yourself up to the notes that brought them alive once upon a time, it will again.

When someone has gone,
you can keep a part of them alive by giving the love you had for them a forever place in your life, a forever seat at your table, and a glorious chapter in your book.

Stories never die, and boy, did they make stories.

Tell them.
