Got a lot going on?
Things might feel uncertain right now – there’s a lot of changes happening in our lives and the way we can connect with people.
It can help to have a yarn with someone you trust, and do things that help you feel good – like get up and moving, connecting with culture and country, making sure you get a good sleep and are eating healthy food. Big or small, doing things that are good for your body, mind and spirit can all help you to feel strong and connected.
