@JuliefergusonOT One of our nurses shared this calendar with me too! I've been trying to keep doing it accordingly (and forcing Simon to follow suit where appropriate 😄)

@Joanne_Lake @matthaig1 I'll always remember the patient who told me that people get too hung up on 'bad weather' when they should be thankful for seeing the world through four different seasons, with four types of leaves, four flowers etc. RIP.

@matthaig1 Pick a favourite local tree and observe it through the seasons. Take comfort and solace from the cycle of nature: the buds, the leaves, the fruit, the fall. Here's my lovely hornbeam tree, earlier this week

An alternative source of advice and information for people needing bereavement support during this difficult time. I can imagine that traditional bereavement support services & charities will be extremely stretched at present.

If you can be one thing in the tough weeks ahead, just be KIND.

People are facing lots of #occupational #deprivation #imbalance #alienation in this current pandemic. Mental health has never been so important. More people will be suffering from #Anxiety which #OTs can also support with #anxietymanagement 💚#Youmatter #EveryMindMatters
