REdisCOVERY Peakers

It's Pride Month, Peakers! We've talked before about the difficulties that members of the LGBTQIA+ community face, and we're going to talk about them again! Remember be kind, LIVE WITH PRIDE and love is love. The rest is just details. ♥️🧡💛💚💙💜

Thinking of you all.

Final day of our #12daysofgratefulmas We all know that when you make a goal or future plans it gives you something to look forward to. Whether you count down the days or work a bit harder, there is a focus there that benefits our mental health. So on our last day, we ask...

Love it. Especially this: “Resting is part of the growth process.” ❤️😭 #WinterSolstice

#12daysofwellmas The art of giving gifts! Big or small, bought or made, practical or fun, receiving a present which has been chosen with us in mind, makes us feel loved and appreciated. So what's the most thoughtful present you ever got?

#12daysofgratefulmas One of the big words of the season is "Joy". We've asked about your music joys, cuddles, peaceful places and favourite things but what about what you bring to others. No one is an island. What do you do for or with others that brings you joy?

#12daysofgratefulmas Who has a Christmas/holiday tradition? Have you adopted something from your family or made up your own? Traditions can be good for mental health as it provides a sense of stability and help us connect with our roots.

#12daysofwellmas Our surroundings are so important for our wellbeing. Our neighbourhoods, towns, regions shape ourselves and contribute to who we are. Whether you have a sense of belonging, deep roots or just happy to be where you are - what do you like about where you live?

#12daysofgratefulmas Books can mean so much to us. They can make us laugh and cry, hate and love, lose or find ourselves. Some might have accompanied us through our lives, have become friends or counselors. So what is your favourite book and why?

#12daysofgratefulmas "If only..." "In another life..." "I wish I could..." We all know these words. Maybe it's a career, a skill, a dream, a place to move to and make a life - ANYTHING! We want to know: what would you do if you knew you couldn't fail?

#12daysofgratefulmas We all have that one special place that's kept in our memories and makes us smile. It could be a place you return to every weekend or that once in a lifetime holiday you'll know you'll never get again. Where's your favourite place in the world to visit?

#12daysofgratefulmas We all need a little help to lift us up and music is such a mood booster! Research shows that music releases dopamine, the feel-good brain chemical, and dopamine was up to 9% higher when people listened to music they enjoy. So what's your get-up-and-go song?

#12daysofgratefulmas We all need to feel the touch of another living being especially when it's cold and dark outside or inside of us. Who you snuggle up with for warmth and comfort, who gives you the best hugs? Human, animal, mineral or virtual who hugs the stuffing out of you?

#12daysofgratefulmas Yesterday we wanted to kick things off feeling grateful. Today we want everyone to feel peaceful! Where is your favourite place to feel and find peace?

#12daysofgratefulmas Who are you most grateful for? We can often get too busy in life to think about the things we are grateful for. So for today, have a think about who you're most grateful for - a person, past or present or something. No doubt we all agree on, MPC 💚

We wanted to do something for the Christmas period whether it's a time you love or dread, we are hoping it will lift each and every one of you. Sooo🥁🥁🥁 tomorrow starts 12 days of Grateful-mas! Each day, we'll ask thoughtful questions to remind us of something to smile about.

#WorldMentalHealthDay We always say 'it's ok not to be ok' and that's true! But what can we do to feel a little more ok when we're down? Well we asked some #Peakers! Did we miss your top feel better tip? Tell us what you do! #MyPeakChallenge #MPC #ItsOkayToNotBeOkay
