Hello all, how are you all today?
So today is youth mental health day. This is something that is very close to my heart. ❤️

Youth Mental Health Day seeks to raise awareness and promote discussions about the importance of mental health among young people. It highlights the significant challenges faced by young individuals in their mental well-being, encompassing a range of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, and eating disorders.

It was a great privilege to me when I was given the opportunity to write about my mental health struggles back in my teens for the book "Letters to my teenage self" way back in March. It let me see for myself how far I had come in life and that there is better days after the bad ones and given time you will get there.

It has been very heartwarming too to hear that the book has helped others and people are now opening up about their own struggles.
There is so much that can be done to help our youth, so seek that advice, talk about with it and don't suffer on your own.

Grab a notepad, write it down what is in your head and get it out there, don't suffer in silence.
It's okay to be not okay ❤️

I was delighted to open up this lovely message last week from a lovely lady who ordered a lavender filled relaxation eye pillow from me.

The brief I got from her when she ordered one was "Could I have it in pink please and feather design if possible?"

She was very pleased to receive to her wee parcel and has already put it to use on her weekend away and shared it on her social media platforms too.

I hope she has many more days when she can pop her pillow over her eyes and drift away into that sea of tranquility.

It's Roald Dahl day today!!
What's your favourite book or film of his?

It looks like Danny Champion of the World is a favourite in our house, the pages have been well turned throughout the years.

I do love the film Matilda too, such a beautiful ending.

Over to you......

Signs of Autumn on my walk earlier this morning!
I must admit I do love the crispness of the mornings and all the change in colours.
Are you ready for the season of colour and cooler days and evenings?
