@pact_creative @marcella_golan @bexxyd @voxerbrant @Grace_KIS @beyondsocialbuz @KirstenPlaying Thanks @pact_creative ! Our 3 things helping with #lockdown #mentalhealth:
1. Having time to play the piano
2. Watching a pair of blackbirds in the garden
3. Enjoying simple things- a cup of tea in the sunshine (until today's rain!)
So many positives from enforced downtime!

Here is Dylan Thomas' 'Fern Hill' - perfect for switching off and taking a few moments away from everything else.
'And once below a time I lordly had the trees and leaves / Trail with daisies and barley / Down the rivers of the windfall light.' https://t.co/b2Z5016XUd

Self-isolating, or find yourself with more time on your hands than usual? Use the opportunity to take up something new - sketching, learning poetry off by heart, or start learning a language. Keep your mind busy & the hours will disappear #selfisolating #wellbeing #creativity

Confined residents of Siena, Italy singing together through windows.

A profound and beautiful example of how the arts can foster hope, solidarity, connection, resolve and resilience in the face of the #CoronavirusPandemic #covid19UK

Our lunchtime workshops seek to reveal how the past has affected our present. You'll return to work feeling as if you've had a thoroughly refreshing break from the office! #lunchandlearn

Dogs really do boost the mood! #wellbeing

'Most adults had rarely or never listened to birdsong or smelled wild flowers in the past year'. The benefits to our mental health from spending time in nature are so significant - more needs to be done to raise awareness #nature #mentalhealth #wellbeing https://t.co/OwC2OcNccI
