Enjoy a read from her latest blog about some key nutrients to focus on this season, along with simple foods that can help deliver them. We may be close to the end of winter, but it is still worth a read for the benefits while we move into Spring ...

Winter has a way of catching us off guard — one day you’re feeling fine, and the next you’re reaching for the tissues. While we can’t always avoid every bug, what we eat can play an important role in supporting how our body responds and recovers. Here are some key nutrients to focus on this ...

* Winter Listening - Revisiting: I'm Glad I'm Me - A Podcast with Author James Nicholson, Dr Lyn Worsley & Leigh Hatcher *

What if the secret to raising happy, resilient kids fit inside a picture book about a boy who wishes he were a cat? Or a bird? Or pretty much anything but himself?

That is at the heart of ‘I’m Glad I’m Me’, the new children’s book from author James Nicholson — and the subject of our latest conversation in The Resilience Centre Podcast.

Host Leigh Hatcher sits down with James and Clinical Psychologist and resilience expert Dr Lyn Worsley to unpack a story that sounds simple but lands hard: a little boy tries on one animal after another, chasing the feeling that someone else’s life must be better, until he finally discovers he’s glad to just be himself. It’s a message for kids, sure.

But in an age where social media is engineered to make everyone else look cooler, happier and more perfect than we feel, none of us are immune to the comparison trap.

This one is for the grown-ups too:

* New BLOG: From Feeling Burnout to Finding Balance *

When we think about burnout, the state of feeling overwhelmed comes to mind. So what exactly is it? “Burnout is a sign that something needs to change.” – Sarah Forgrove

Registered Psychologist - Ida Soghomoninan - The Resilience Centre - guides us through symptoms to identify burnout as well as a range of strategies to recover from it.

Burnout is a state of physical, emotional and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged and often unresolved stress. Essentially, it’s a sign that your mind and body have been under extended pressure for far too long.

Burnout can occur due to a range of reasons, but factors like work pressure and/or relationship issues are contributors that are common amongst burnout. Benefit from reading our blog today and learning about ideas to heal from burnout:

Are we naturally innately resilient? Or is it a process that we can learn, nurture and develop as an individual, group, team, family, community, school or workplace ... or even a community as a whole over time?

Belinda and Neil were thrilled to attend the annual School Leaders Breakfast Expo early this morning at Macquarie Hospital, with over 80 staff, in a range of positions, from a variety of schools, across the local Northern Sydney area.

We were lucky to connect with a lot of staff schools around the themes of resilience and research, with an opportunity to promote our services and continue to learn about the needs of staff in schools, when it comes to building the resilience of students, and schools as a whole.

Thank You to the School Link Team for having us again and we are already looking forward to being a part of the experience next year again, it is such a need to keep connected with schools for Health and Education to keep working together always.
