"I’m moving. I stand my ground. I don’t appreciate anyone – whether I know them or not – making judgment on me and my ability to do the things that I do.”

"But there may be a downside to body-positive images, too: they’re still focusing on bodies."

When you think about your positive qualities, how often do you focus on physical attributes rather than things to do with your personality?

"I don't want to cover up anymore. Not my face, not my mind, not my soul, not my thoughts, not my dreams, not my struggles, not my emotional growth. Nothing."

👎 Almost half of 18-25 year olds said social media had caused them to worry about their body image. What can we do to reduce these pressures? Our latest research here: https://t.co/ZwBTabddJv #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek #BeBodyKind

How connected do you feel with your body? It can be easy to feel disconnected and unbalanced during times of distress - if you can relate, try some of these grounding techniques.

13th-19th May is Mental Health Awareness Week with the 2019 theme focusing on body image.

This week we'll be reminding our followers to remember all the amazing things our bodies do for us - not just how they look - and sharing a range of interesting articles and stories.

[BHT Wellbeing @bht_wellbeing]

We're looking for peer support volunteers with lived experience of mental health recovery to lead group activities for anyone wanting to improve their wellbeing. See our website for more info: https://t.co/dPGUo4QszJ

[BHT Wellbeing @bht_wellbeing]

We can’t control what life throws at us, but we can all practice reframing difficult events as challenges instead of threats. This shift in mindset has substantial benefits for our psychological and physical health.

April is Stress Awareness Month. How much do you know about the effects of stress on the body?

Many people say that helping others through acts of charity or volunteer work makes them feel better and happier. New research goes further and finds that simply wishing someone well may have a similarly positive effect on our moods.
