SoS 12 Days of Christmas. Day 1 ”Just Press Pause”

Each day across the 12 Days of Christmas Counsellor Shona Macpherson is joining Pennie Stuart, in collaboration with Mikeysline, to share some mental health skills, practical tips you can try which might just help when you’re finding life a struggle.  Shona’s kicking off the series by suggesting we give ourselves permission to press the pause button more often, taking stock before we respond to the world around us, and explains some of the science behind why pressing the pause button can be really helpful. Hopefully you’ll find some of these ideas helpful but they’re not a substitute for professional help so if you’re struggling, please seek support. Always remember it's ok not to be ok and Mikeysline is available if you or someone you know needs help or advice you can text 07786 20 77 55, or contact them via messenger, webchat or twitter. Sun-Thurs 6pm - 10pm, Fri-Sat 7pm-7am.
