In this blog we discuss what stress is and how to try and manage our stress.
National Random Acts of Kindness Day
Random Acts of Kindness Day and it’s easy to get involved. Simply look for opportunities to share kindness, care and compassion for others- and yourself. No act of kindness is too small and can be informal and simple, sharing a smile even with a mask, open a door for someone, greet a person in public or share an act of kindness in your own home.
