🌟 Men's Health Week: A Personal Journey and Important Lessons 🌟 As we mark Men's Mental Health Week, I want to share some personal reflections and insights from my journey of growing a counselling organisation. While the purpose was driven with hope for change, the path has been fraught with challenges, including imposter syndrome, burnout, and anxiety, which sometimes manifested physically, leading to multiple A&E visits for chest pains and heart attack scares. The pressure to build something meaningful while maintaining a facade of strength was overwhelming. I felt that I shouldn't burden others and that I had to handle everything alone because this was "my doing. (this is also all the while being a reflective psychotherapist). This mindset led to significant stress and isolation. From my experiences, here are some hopefully useful tips: 1. Don't Go It Alone: No one can do everything themselves. We are tribal animals, built to survive and thrive together. Reach out for support; it's a sign of strength, not weakness. 🤝 2. Embrace Imperfection: Aiming for perfection sets you up for failure. Accept that sometimes "good enough" is truly good enough. Perfectionism can be a relentless and unachievable goal. 🎯 3. Don't Sweat the Small Stuff: Focus on what truly matters. Letting go of minor issues can significantly reduce stress. 💡 4. Leverage Your Team: Surround yourself with people smarter than you and focus on your strengths. You can't do everything, so don't kid yourself into trying. 🧠 5. Work to Live, Don't Live to Work: Remember, everything ends. It's okay to work hard, but balance is crucial. The only ones who will remember the nights and weekends you worked are your kids. So, attend their plays, join their sports clubs, or finish that piece of LEGO. These moments matter more than you can imagine. 🏡❤️ 6. Be Kind to Yourself: You don't tell yourself enough, but you are amazing and deserve to look after yourself. Self-care isn't selfish; it's essential. 🌿 Despite men making up less than 20% of the counselling profession in the UK, our presence is vital. The journey may be tough, but by supporting each other and fostering open discussions about mental health, we can create a more inclusive and understanding environment for everyone. Let's continue this conversation and support each other in our mental health journeys. 💙 If you need to speak to someone, don't wait or hold off. Speak to a therapist confidentially at BetterU.

To mark the conclusion of International Men's Health Week and the occasion of Father's Day, we launched the ‘No Silence Please’ campaign to raise awareness about some of the major health issues faced by men, and to break the silence and stigma surrounding men’s mental and physical health. As more and more men grapple with health issues, it is becoming increasingly important to encourage men to speak out and seek the right guidance and support. This International Men's Health Week, we pledge to break the silence and talk about Men's Health. No Silence Please! #FathersDay #InternationalMensHealthWeek #awareness #health #menshealth #globalhealth #healthawareness #healthcampaign #digitalcampaign #imdcal

June is National Men's Health Awareness Month, a time to focus on the health and well-being of men everywhere. It's important for men to prioritize their health and take proactive steps to prevent and manage any potential health issues. This month, let's encourage the men in our lives to schedule regular check-ups with their healthcare providers, eat a balanced diet, exercise regularly, and manage stress effectively. It's also important for men to be aware of their family history and any potential risk factors for certain health conditions. By taking care of their physical and mental health, men can lead longer, healthier lives and be there for their loved ones for years to come. Let's all work together to raise awareness and support men's health this month and beyond. #MensHealthAwarenessMonth #MensHealthMatters

Men's Health Awareness Month is a reminder that men's emotional well-being is just as important as their physical health. It's okay to ask for help and talk about what you're going through. That's what we're here for! https://lnkd.in/ggs7VQYS #MensHealthAwarenessMonth

It’s International Men’s Day today, so let’s talk about men’s health It’s no secret—men are statistically less likely to visit the doctor regularly.

At Salu, we believe preventive care can change that. With regular health check-ups, full body analyses, mental health support, and personalized screenings, it’s easier than ever to take charge of your well-being. 💡 The best care is proactive care!

Loneliness Awareness Week 🤝✨ This week we acknowledge Loneliness Awareness Week. A reminder that loneliness is an issue that affects a lot of people in the world. Loneliness has recently been declared a global health crisis by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as it has been found to have grave impact on health and wellbeing. The theme for this year’s event is ‘Random Acts of Connection’. I wanted to use this opportunity to remind you that connection is important in this busy world. I often need to remind myself of this when immersed in my world and endeavours. Connection leads to better health and relationships, and it doesn’t need to be grandiose, the micro acts have just as much impact. #connection #lonelinessawarenessweek #mentalhealth
