Feel the need to fill every available moment with activity? Rest is as much an activity as anything else. In a world that demands productivity hacks in everything, rest is a radical act. Don't 'hack' so much of your life that there's little time to breathe, or to grow. You can have free time and not make plans. You can say no. When's the last time you made a date with doing nothing? #CommunityManagement #PrioritiseRest -- Good Community helps community professionals to build ethical and effective online communities, and to protect and improve their wellbeing.

🌟 R U OK? Day 🌟 Today is a powerful reminder to check in on the people we care about. It's easy to get caught up in our daily routines and overlook the simple act of asking, "Are you OK?" 💬 Take a moment to reach out to friends, family, or colleagues. A genuine conversation can make a world of difference. Whether it's a quick text, a phone call, or a face-to-face chat - your kindness and support can brighten someone's day. Remember, sometimes it's not about having all the answers but being there to listen. Let's create a community where everyone feels heard and supported. 💛 #RUOKDay #MentalHealthMatters #CheckIn #SupportEachOther #OBrienElectricalNorthGeelong

Peer support networks offer a powerful lifeline. These networks connect first responders with colleagues who understand their experiences. It's a space to share burdens, learn coping mechanisms, and find camaraderie. Here's why peer support is crucial: - Shared understanding: Peers "get it," reducing isolation and fostering a sense of belonging. - Empathy and validation: They can offer emotional support and encouragement from someone who's walked a similar path. - Strength through unity: Knowing they're not alone helps first responders build resilience and cope with stress. Peer support networks are NOT a replacement for professional help, but a vital first line of defense.
