It’s #Movember! An important time to unite for men’s health. We’re working towards a world where men take action for their health, including their mental wellbeing, and are supported by those around them. The rate of male suicide is alarmingly high: 3 out of 4 suicides in Australia are by men. The issue of suicide is incredibly complex, but we know that breaking down stigma, speaking up and taking action early when times are tough can reduce the risk.  #mentalheath #wellbeing #eap #makehappycontagious 

Hope is often seen as a vague or ‘wishy-washy’ concept. A 2020 study ran by the University of Michigan and Harvard University found that people with a greater sense of hope had better physical health and health behaviour outcomes, including fewer chronic conditions, lower risk of cancer and fewer sleep problems.  Read Tarnya Davis' article, featured in this weekend's Newcastle Herald, on how creating hope is an active process that propels us to make positive changes. #mentalhealth #wellbeing #eap #livewellbeyondgood

Many of us are conditioned to equate success with achieving specific goals, but research shows that true fulfilment stems from a deeper sense of personal purpose and meaning.

Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay, highlighting the vital connections between mental health and work. Safe, healthy working environments can be protective factors for mental health. Unhealthy environments including stigma, discrimination, harassment and other poor working conditions – can pose significant risks. This can affect mental health, overall quality of life and participation or productivity at work.      It’s essential for employers and practices like NewPsych to work together to improve mental health at work. By investing efforts and resources in evidence-based approaches and interventions at work, we can ensure that everyone has the opportunity to thrive at work and in life.      For more than 25 years, we’re proud to be the trusted EAP partner for more than 100 organisations of all sizes in a wide range of industries such as mining, manufacturing and heavy industry, education, not-for-profit, disability, health and aged care, government, real estate and professional services.     Let's take action today for a healthier future for all! #mentalheath  #wellbeing  #eap  #psychosocialrisk  #makehappycontagious  #livewellbeyondgood #wmh24
