Podcast discussing grief, active listening and suicide prevention.

Podcast and video released today. This was hard to record and even harder to share, but I received a message today that made it worthwhile: a close friend of Beck's sent me this: "Hiya Fran, just driven home listening to your podcast. It was amazing, you are amazing! Think you need your own podcast, I learned so much, was really insightful and inspiring xx" Made the struggle with my emotions worthwhile! Hope Beck's smile continues to help others...

Most days I try to take an early morning walk/commute before starting work. This is my staying active with a desk-based role, connecting with my neighbours, hopefully giving by having a chat with them and checking how they are, learning from them and their life experiences and taking notice of the changing wonder of nature around me.

Taken from the concept of forest bathing, this is a more accessible way of connecting with nature and benefiting from its therapeutic benefits. Walks in nature can slowed down so that it is not about distance but is more of a mindful activity where individuals with or without disabilities, are able to utilise all of their senses, by seeing, touching, feeling, and hearing the wonders of nature.

Think about those things that you have always wanted to do but never had the time. You could join an evening or online class to learn a new language or finally pass that maths exam.

Don't just think about learning new things, also think about reigniting old interests and hobbies, maybe you used to plan a musical instrument in a band, or you used to enjoy pottery class at school.

I have ridden and owned horses all my life and they definitely support my wellbeing. I can spend time outdoors where I can 'Take Notice' I also need to stop and notice any changes in their behaviour for their health. They help me keep fit through mucking out and 'Be Active' through riding. They give me the opportunity to connect through building a relationship with them, but also make friends and 'Connect' with other people. I have the opportunity to 'Keep Learning' to improve my knowledge of horse care and my riding skills, and I can 'Give' to my friends by letting their children come for rides or doing sponsored rides for charity.

Support people to access their local library where they can connect with local people and possibly volunteer to help run the library which may include running activity groups where people can learn new skills

Supporting people to walk to their local shop for milk or bread each week promotes physical activity, connects then with passers-by and shop staff and they can take notice of the world around you

Taking the dog for a walk and getting some fresh air helps to maintain my mental health

Where possible if I get some time between meetings - I try to get up and go a walk around the block. It helps to get some fresh air - clear my mind & get the blood pumping!

Learn to play the ukulele with a friend!

It's a bit niche, but I'm going to add a personal one - about 10 years ago - four friends and I decided it might be fun to get together on a regular basis to learn to play the ukulele together. We're still going, we're still more enthusiastic than skillful, but we connect, we learn, I think it fits the mindful category - it especially helped us connect together (even if only by Zoom) during lockdown, we have discussed how we are aware it helps our mental wellbeing, and we've just taken on a new member who's having a bit of a tough time at the moment and there's no doubt part of his desire (and his wife's desire) to join us is to improve his mental wellbeing.
