EXPRESSIONS - The Peer-led Wellness Conversation & Expression Space

This 'course' maninly takes the form of a comfortable conversation about the themes and tools of mental wellbeing.

Together we will:

• Explore tools to manage our wellness and our mental health
• Gather ideas for expanding our own 'wellness toolbox'
• Get creative! in writing one anonymous short message of hope for others
• Express our positive tips in a drawing, or short paragraph or poem
• Experiment with adult colouring, wellness wordsearches or calming line drawing
• Take away a free booklet sharing other stories, artwork, and tips.

A safe, fun, and creative way to engage with others commited to improving their personal wellness, and for gathering or sharing tips about what works well.

For those who wish to contribute to the growing online anonymous archive of 'stories' additional information and support will be given by appointment after the course itself.

Let's share hope ... our words can help others!

This is part of an ongoing project partnership between The Mental Health Forum and the Southern Trust area Protect Life Implementation Group.
