This week for our mental health activity we are challenging young people to start a feelings diary each day and try it for a full week.

You could print off the one we have made or you could try making your own.

Lets start learning about and understanding our feelings!

This week is mental health awareness week, with the theme for this year being kindness.

Tonight the girls group got involved by taking part in the following activity (why not try it out yourself):

1. What is kindness?

2. Make a list of kind acts

3. Cross out any of these acts you have done this week

4. Circle any you could do during the rest of the week

5. Lets start now! Give one person in the call a compliment

Mental Health Activity:

Ask an individual/group to draw two people, writing depression on the top of one and anxiety on the other
Ask them to label the symptoms of depression and anxiety to parts of the body
e.g. butterflies in the stomach, sweaty hands, heart racing

This exercise can help people more aware of how much depression and anxiety can effect a person. This activity has been used with children with small understanding of mental health and worked really well and there is an example of work they completed
