Hello everyone 👋🏽, Please share the RELAX Study with any pregnant women (aimed at those 16-28 weeks pregnant) you know, particularly those experiencing worry and anxiety. Email address: RELAXstudy@kcl.ac.uk Website: relax.healthmachine.io Thank you for your support. Michelle

As #mentalhealthawarenessweek reaches to a close, we'd like to encourage you to reflect on your mental health, progress you've made & any tools you use to improve your wellbeing. We welcome any thoughts or ideas. Yesterday, the RELAX team wore green to bring awareness to this!

This week is @fivexmore 5th annual Black Maternal Health Awareness week: fivexmore.org/black-maternal… We want to contribute to this important cause by encouraging black, brown or mixed-race mothers-to-be to participate in our research. Sign up here: relax.healthmachine.io #BMHAW24

Did you know that most apps we use to manage our #mentalhealth don’t have much scientific evidence behind them? We are looking for people to test our online training and help us understand how effective it can be in supporting pregnant women. Sign up: relax.healthmachine.io
