Our amazing friends at the BePure Clinic are holding an evening panel discussion ‘What’s On Your Mind?’ this upcoming Mental Health Awareness Week. It’s being led by an incredible bunch of women to authentically share their experiences with mental health, chatting about exactly how we can nurture our mind-body connection to support mental wellbeing. .
If you’re in Auckland and would like to head along, tickets are available at Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.co.nz/e/whats-on-your-mind-tickets-72015816245

There will be goodie bags and treats on the night too 😍

As we kick off plastic-free July, it’s a great time to check in and think about how we relate to environment, because at the end of the day, we are not separate from it, we’re part of it. What we do to our environment, also affects us. -
We’re surrounded by incredible nature in New Zealand - what can it teach us if we only tune-in? 🌱

If we don’t have the necessary nutrients, our bodies and minds can’t function the way that they’re meant to. Nutrition needs to be part of the approach to addressing mental health issues. We’re so glad the conversation is gaining momentum, thanks in part to the hard work of brilliant experts like @drewramseymd. Check out his article on nutritional psychiatry at @mindbodygreen

What you do matters, no matter how small 🌱⠀

P.S. This obviously applies not just to old men 😂

Let's raise each other up 🤜 🤛

There's not one single cause of depression, rather, a number of contributing factors that can look very different for different people. Depression could be a perfectly normal response to a traumatic event, or it could be the result of excessive stress, nutrient deficiencies, food allergies, lack of movement, being out of alignment with our purpose, loneliness, the list goes on. If we can instead see depression as an invitation to explore the underlying reasons, it can be the foundation of profound healing.⠀
