Kindness can be so rewarding.
Not only do we get a dopamine hit when we display kindness, but it has other wider benefits.
Which do you think is most beneficial from this diagram?

If your child is having problems, don’t be too hard on yourself or blame yourself. Although it can be upsetting and worrying if your child is having a bad time, and it makes your relationship with them feel more stressful, you are not a bad parent. Children often take it out on those closest to them, so you might be feeling the effect of their very powerful emotions.

Your mental health matters, regardless of the week. And you don’t have to face it alone.

When we have space to make a heartfelt connection then we can expand from there. So much of what we (need to) do in our lives rests on how we feel, in ourselves & in relationship with each other. We can't rush or measure it & why would we want to? We can feel how much it matters.

Always good when stats go in the right direction.
We'll need to update our analysis following the announcement that all London primary school kids will be getting free school meals.
The Mayor’s laudable intervention today highlights the UK govt’s failure to act for kids.
ALT Map showing percentage of children growing up in poverty who are not eligible for free school meals: Scotland: 16% (when free school meal programme fully rolled out) Wales: 19% (when free school meal programme fully rolled out) Northern Ireland: 22% England: 31%

1 in 4 of us will experience a mental health problem in any given year.
But by talking about mental health, we can bust myths and barriers.
#TimeToTalk Day is 2 February 2023 - make space in your day for a conversation about mental health.

"One of the criticisms I've faced over the years is that I'm not aggressive enough or assertive enough, or maybe somehow, because I'm empathetic, it means I'm weak. I totally rebel against that. I refuse to believe that you cannot be both compassionate & strong." Jacinda Ardern
