Feeling overwhelmed? You're not alone.

🌎🧠 The world is going through a tough time right now, but there are ways we can help protect the mental health of ourselves and others.

- Mental Health Foundation.

Turning off instant alerts for social media or news apps can give you a break from anxiety provoking information.

Mindfulness, reading, spending time with others, and exercising are all great self-care activities that can benefit your wellbeing.

Give yourself permission to rest - remember, taking time to look after yourself doesn’t mean you’ve stopped caring about other things.

Limit the negative content you are exposed to by blocking or hiding certain social media profiles/accounts.
