Mental Health Month - FREE Tips, FREE Resources, Free Providers! - Children's Mental Health Week (May 5th-11th) First things first. Give your child/ren a hug today and every day! Children's Mental Health Week is an essential reminder of the unique challenges our young ones face in navigating their emotional landscapes. It's a time to not only raise awareness but also to foster understanding and empathy towards the struggles many children encounter silently. As we embrace this week, let's underscore the importance of creating safe spaces where kids feel empowered to express their emotions without fear or judgment. Whether it's anxiety, depression, or any other mental health issue, let's make it clear to our children that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. By prioritizing their mental well-being, we equip them with invaluable tools to flourish in an often tumultuous world. This week prompts us to reflect on how we, as a society, can better support the mental health journey of our children. It's about recognizing that every child's experience is unique and that there's no one-size-fits-all solution. Let's amplify the voices advocating for increased access to mental health resources in schools and communities, ensuring that no child falls through the cracks. Let's champion initiatives that promote resilience, self-care, and emotional intelligence from an early age. By investing in the mental health of our children today, we sow the seeds for a healthier and more compassionate tomorrow. Together, let's pledge to be allies, advocates, and champions for the well-being of our youngest generation.

On this #WorldMentalHealthDay we want to spotlight the importance of young people's access to mental health services. Children and young people are vulnerable to mental health problems - but can be less equipped to understand what they're going through. We have recently worked with NHS Kent & Medway to formulate a strategy to expand children and young people's access to mental health support. From the outset, children and young people shared their thoughts and insights with us on how they wanted to receive and engage with information about mental health services. Over the next year, we are supporting Kent and Medway in implementing the strategy, with each small step a step closer to improving mental health outcomes for the children and young people in the local area.  Click through below for more detail on how we approach designing an engagement strategy. https://lnkd.in/e6Ji23yj

Children’s Mental Health Week - This year’s theme is ‘My Voice Matters’. When children are given agency, encouraged to express themselves and make choices, it not only fosters a sense of autonomy but also strengthens their trust and attachment with the adults in their lives. Feeling heard and valued helps children develop their self-esteem, confidence, and self-worth, and empowers them to have a voice 🫶 Value their Play: Encouraging self-directed play allows children to explore and express themselves, fostering a sense of empowerment and acceptance. Play is key to their wellbeing! It is also important for children to know they are many ways in which they can express themselves. Drawing, reading, writing, meditating, dancing or music can be powerful outlets for emotions and thoughts. 🫶 Listen: Listening actively and supporting without judgment ensures children feel valued and secure, vital for building strong attachments and trust. Ensure they know they have a safe space at home or with you. If you listen even to the little things they’ll know they can come to you for the bigger issues too! 🫶 Choices: Allow children to make decisions appropriate for their age. This builds trust in their abilities and encourages responsibility Giving children choices, like what to wear or what to eat, nurtures their self-esteem and decision-making skills. 🫶 Emotions: Help younger children name their feelings and identify where they feel it. For instance, some children might feel hot if embarrassed and some children might feel “butterflies” in their tummy if anxious. Understanding emotions is the first step in managing them effectively and being able to express them. #childrenmentalhealth #childrenmentalhealthweek #playmatters #expressyourself #childrenwellbeing #wellbeing #positiveparenting #parenting #myvoicematters Place2Be #mentalwellbeing

On this #WorldMentalHealthDay, let's embrace a fundamental truth: Your mental health is an intrinsic human right. In the midst of life's relentless pace, juggling work, childcare, and daily responsibilities, I've realised that showing kindness to oneself is a skill we all need to cultivate. Amidst the clamor of the daily grind, I often find myself dwelling on what could have been, where I might have excelled, and how I could have been better. But today, I invite you to join me in recognising that self-compassion is not just crucial for our mental well-being, but it is our right as human beings. Let's pledge to be more empathetic to ourselves, celebrating the small victories and acknowledging that we are doing our best in this demanding world. 🌱 #MentalHealthMatters #SelfCompassion #EmbraceYourRight
