So I imagine we are all painfully aware that mental health is a rising concern. The question is....what can we do about it in the context of so many limitations to accessing services.

I am thinking through ideas. Please share yours.

With the sudden emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic last year and the impact of the second wave as the new year gets under way, it was perhaps inevitable that cases, if not swathes, of psychological distress would emerge. And how you manage stress is crucial in finding some form of relief.

Too many misunderstand depression! And waayyy too much stigma

As the new school year approaches, my son shows signs of anxiety. He confesses how he feels about going to school; "scared". Now while it is very normal to be fearful at the start of a shool year, I know the challenges we both faced last year and shjoe, I get it! I am lucky that I have over the years taught him to regulate his emotions and fears with "breathing". It has helped him every time that I get him to just "breathe baby"... and once I overheard his self talk when he was horribly frustrated, "breathe d'Artian, breathe".

The reason for the profound differences lies deep inside the brain.
