“Just as women’s safety is a key priority for National Cabinet, we need children’s safety and wellbeing to be made a national priority. Despite decades of evidence, there is currently a lack of accountability and urgency for change.”  Brilliant to see this call to action from the National Children’s Commissioner @AnneHollonds humanrights.gov.au/about/new…

When negative emotions cause students to miss class, these strategies for supporting their emotional regulation skills can help them feel better *and* do better at school. 🧡 edut.to/3IsxcMa

7/ Managing mental wellbeing w @ckraine & @janemartino 🌈 “A lot of people ask, ‘What’s your morning routine?’ If you’re not a morning person, don’t have a morning routine; have an afternoon or evening routine." @janemartino, Co-Founder @Smiling_Mind 🔗: airtree.vc/airtree-blog/foun…

"The volume is astronomical, and I don't know that people fully understand how many people are struggling," says one doctor. In her hospital's ER, the number of kids seeking emergency psychiatric care has surged from 30 a month to 30 a day. nbcnews.com/health/health-ne…

It’s okay to feel how you do. You are not ‘too sensitive’ or asking too much. What you feel is valid, and what you’re going through is real. Offer yourself a little compassion and give space to your emotions 💙

Don't make my mistake and doubt @AddieWootten, CEO of @Smiling_Mind 😅 Hear Addie's thought process before moving from academia to industry, and notice how transferable research skills are! Building Smiling Mind from 3 staff to 30+ under Addie's leadership... I was wrong!

6/ Mindfulness To help students be less reactionary & use more deep-focused logic, use tools such as @Smiling_Mind designed specifically for students AND teachers. Research shows mindfulness practices can help students improve their focus and decision-making abilities. 👏

#DailyMeditation w @Smiling_Mind led us to talk about #gratefulness. I worry that being so privileged that they don’t think about it enough. How have you/do you do that w your Ss? @maggiefay_ @Kbahri5 @ASMILEwithAnna @IleneWinokur @ChrisQuinn64 @DynamicDuda338 @MrsHayesfam

#DailyMeditation w my students w @Smiling_Mind is so easy & after 2 years of it, it’s the only way I’m sure to meditate myself. Today’s topic: #growthmindset. Understanding that learning means accepting failure & that’s a positive thing, always throws them for a loop. #wellbeing

So great to see @Smiling_Mind & @kpmgaustralia highlighting the role #sleep plays in #MentalWellbeing. The data shown in their Mental Wellbeing Index motivates us to continue to educate & advocate for healthy sleep to improve people’s lives. Report: ow.ly/45lC50KfsWp

A decline in social connections, as the pandemic enters its third year, is contributing to a waning in mental health as people become more isolated and less connected with their social networks. Read what the @Smiling_Mind Index tells us. newsroom.kpmg.com.au/emotion…
