Wellbeing

At Everybody, we prioritise mental health awareness and recognise the positive impact of self-help practices, art, and physical activity on well-being. Here are the benefits of incorporating these practices into your life:

Self-Help Practice's

Empowerment: Engaging in self-help practices such as mindfulness, journaling, or breathing exercises empowers individuals to take control of their mental well-being.

Stress Reduction: Learning coping mechanisms and stress management techniques can significantly reduce anxiety and enhance emotional resilience.

Personal Growth: Self-help practices encourage personal growth and self-awareness, fostering deeper understanding and emotional balance.

Benefits of Art

Expression: Art serves as a powerful outlet for self-expression and emotional release, allowing individuals to channel their feelings into creative endeavors.

Therapeutic Effects: Engaging in art can be therapeutic, promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and boosting mood.

Sense of Achievement: Creating art provides a sense of accomplishment and boosts self-esteem, especially when individuals see tangible results of their creative efforts.

Role of Physical Activity

Mood Enhancement: Regular physical activity, such as exercise or sports, releases endorphins that elevate mood and alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Stress Reduction: Physical activity helps in reducing stress and tension, promoting relaxation and overall well-being.

Improved Cognitive Function: Exercise is linked to improved cognitive function, including better focus, memory, and mental clarity.

At Everybody, we advocate for a holistic approach to mental health, encouraging self-care practices that include art and physical activity. By embracing these practices, individuals can nurture their mental well-being and lead fulfilling lives. Join us in promoting mental health awareness and integrating these beneficial practices into your daily routine.

Helplines and Hotlines: Accessible helplines and hotlines offer immediate support and crisis intervention for those in distress.

Community Support Groups: Joining support groups or community networks can provide a sense of belonging and solidarity, offering peer support and shared experiences.
