Feelin' Good Week 9th - 13th February 2009
Celebrating good mental health and emotional well being of children and young people in Hertfordshire
Our mental health and emotional well being is a bit like a set of scales. When our ability to cope is equal to the challenges we face life feels okay but when things get too much and the challenges outweigh our ability to cope we can feel low, angry, confused, alone - perhaps all of these.
Just like with physical illnesses, many mental and emotional problems could be avoided if people looked after themselves and took a few simple steps to keep their minds healthy – talking about how they feel, taking some time to relax when times are stressful, getting involved in hobbies and activities – things we know we should do, but often forget.
Feelin’ Good Week aims to:
- Raise awareness amongst professionals
- Promote positive emotional/ mental health
- Strengthen multi agency working
- Increasing resilience
- Reducing Stigma
