Push ups for better mental and physical health
I’ve decided to take on this challenge, to try and help raise awareness of the daily struggle of having good mental health.
I’ve been impacted by depression et al, and it can be a real struggle, daily. It can often feel like it’s never going to end, and that you have to do this on your own.
BUT, there is help, and there are people that care.
Just check in on your family and friends… you never know when that phone call or text message could change someone’s day, and mind state for the better.
De-stigmatise poor mental health.
Look out for your family and friends
Be kind to each other
Pay each other compliments
Tell your people that you love them
Exercise (even when it hurts to even think about it, because you never feel bad leaving a work out)
Eat well, drink water
&
TRY AND LOVE YOURSELF AND THOSE AROUND YOU.
*I'm completing 3,307 push-ups in 24 days to raise awareness and funds for mental health in Australia.
Every dollar helps #pushforbetter mental health outcomes in Australia by funding much-needed mental health services and initiatives.
