25.01.2022 Hi - it’s Vikki Friedman here. Hope you all had a lovely weekend. I know that I can’t enter my own Facebook challenge but setting the challenge up definitely gave me some inspiration on how to be a better friend this week. I definitely put more effort into contacting friends that I hadn’t been in touch with recently and had lots of long overdue catch ups which definitely filled my cup and I hope it filled theirs too.... I offered to help my friends in any way I could - it’s a bit tough during a Stage 4 lockdown when you can’t be spontaneous and pop over and have a cuppa and a hug. But I do hope that my friends felt supported and loved. I thought about how I could be a better friend and this is what I came up with: 1) Be more present when you are talking with your friends 2) Try and remember more about your conversations (I sometimes forget the detail) 3) Try and respond to messages more quickly and consistently And I love this quote because my friends, for me ARE my extended family. I do encourage you to enter our challenge because it makes you really think about what kind of friend you are and would like to be in the future. And don’t forget, there’s a great prize from Feel Better Box up for grabs too!

23.01.2022 Thanks Susan Middleditch for your entry and telling us about your special friendship with Nicki and what you have been up to friendwise this week. Do you have a favourite friendship quote that you can share with us?

22.01.2022 Self worth and self esteem. Do you believe you deserve the best in life ? What do you do to enhance your Self Esteem.? What makes you happy ?

20.01.2022 Who is ready for a fun night, to reconnect to other like minded Women ? We have a sensational night planned and it FREE. Love to see you xx

20.01.2022 What an incredibly fun night we had last night at our free MeTreat Connect online event. We had 30 women join us for an evening of connection, wellness, friendship and fun. As most of these ladies are currently in Stage 4 lockdown in Melbourne they were looking for some relief from the seriousness and monotony of their current lives. Tanya Levy covered the WELLNESS component - giving a presentation on ‘How to Deal with your Emotional Rollercoaster During Troubled Times’.... We then split into smaller breakout rooms for the FRIENDSHIP component - giving our guests the opportunity to get to know each other on a deeper level. For FUN we all came together to take part in a hilarious scavenger dress up activity which gave everyone a good laugh. We hope that the ladies left the evening feeling uplifted and happy to have shared a fun night with others who are going through some of the same struggles that they are going through. We hope to run similar online events on a regular basis. Getting together virtually is much better than not getting together at all #metreat #connection #wellness #friendship #fun #retreats #selfcare #womenshealth #womensupportingwomen

20.01.2022 PUT THE SPRING BACK INTO YOUR STEP To say that’s it’s been a tough Winter is an understatement! But today is the first day of SPRING!! ... Spring represents AWAKENING, REBIRTH, RENEWAL and GROWTH. It’s also a great time for NEW BEGINNINGS. So today why don’t you spend some time outside in NATURE? It’s a playground of colour, sounds, animals and flowers. Bulbs are sprouting and flowering and the fruit trees are blossoming. Why don’t you reflect for a moment on how you feel now things are starting to get a little bit warmer and lighter. Do you feel a little bit more alive? Do you feel more motivated to get things done? Do you want to spend more time outside, being active? What is awakening in you this Springtime?

19.01.2022 We may not be able to take you away and pamper you at one of our in-person retreats right now but we do hope that you'll take advantage of the incredible health & wellness sessions that we are making available to your at the upcoming VITAlity Festival. You can sign up FREE at: https://vitavibeevents.com/

15.01.2022 What do you love most about Spring time?

15.01.2022 Sometimes all we need is to know that we aren't facing our problems alone....

15.01.2022 DO YOU BELIEVE YOU DESERVE THE BEST IN LIFE? How is your Self Worth/Self Esteem doing of late? Do you constantly question whether you are good enough or whether you are worthy of receiving the best that life has to offer?... Here’s a couple of ways that you can improve your opinion of yourself and believe in your abilities and general AWESOMENESS! 1.BEING NICE TO YOURSELF!! Appreciate yourself encourage yourself in the way that you would encourage others. Engage in positive self-talk and turn negatives into positive. SUGGESTED ACTIONS: Write down 3 things you like about yourself. Ask 3 important people in your life to tell your 3 things they like about you. 2. CELEBRATE EVERYTHING YOU CAN! Celebrate EVERYTHING especially the small stuff which can be easily missed. SUGGESTED ACTIONS: Work out how you want to celebrate things in these difficult times (eg small rewards, virtual high fives etc!) At the end of the day write down 3 things that you can celebrate (one of mine the other day was washing my hair woohoo!!) You’ll be surprised at how much better your feel about yourself when you change the way you view yourself, talk to yourself and celebrate yourself and your achievements. Go ongive it a go!!

15.01.2022 Thanks Claire Bednall for your entry in our ‘Friend of the Week’ challenge. Sounds that you and Marilou have a very special bond. Thank you for being an awesome friend.

14.01.2022 IDENTIFYING YOUR INNER CIRCLE In these difficult times, it’s a good idea to identify who you can TURN TO FOR HELP when you most need it. It’s sensible to be clear about who you would reach out to for HELP & SUPPORT in advance as you may not be feeling clear headed when the time comes for needing that help.... We suggest that you have a think about who is in your INNER CIRCLE. These are the people who are very close to you, who understand you, people who you can trust to always be there for you when you need them. The number of friends in your inner circle is usually small typically less than 5 people. Once you have identified these friends, write their names down somewhere that is easily accessible. Having this list should help you feel assured that should you are not alone, are loved and that help is always at hand.

13.01.2022 #mentalhealthweek Depression. Crippling anxiety. Uncertainty.... Fear. These are just four of the issues that we’re facing in our communities on a daily basis. Mental health is a stigma that is slowly being addressed and we want to help shine a light on this, because I’ve personally experienced this journey myself. If you agree, share this please. Vikki

08.01.2022 Big congratulations to the divine Claire Bednall who is the winner of last week's MeTreat 'Friend of the Week' Challenge! Claire's entry showed what an amazing and caring friend she is. Apart from her special bond with her BFF Marilou, she has put time and effort into checking in with many of her other friends both here and overseas. She has found ways to offer help and support to others and has considered how she could become an even better friend in the future. We also ...love the friendship quote she chose.... "Good friends are like stars you don't always see them but you know they are there. We'll be in touch soon to arrange to send you your prize - the beautiful 'I'm Thinking of You' hamper from our good friends at Feel Better Box. Wouldn't it be beautiful for you to invite Marilou over to share your goodies when you are finally able to do so?

06.01.2022 Tanya Levy and I (Vikki Friedman) can’t wait to welcome the 30+ women who have booked onto our free online MeTreat Connect event tonight!! We know it’s not the same as gathering in person but desperate times call for not-so-desperate measures!! It’s better that we come together virtually than not come together at all. Tonight is all about reconnection, education, friendship and most importantly - FUN! ... There is too much going on in the world that is serious, monotonous or simply depressing at the moment. Our mission is to shake things up and provide some light relief for the lovely ladies who’ll be joining us tonight.

06.01.2022 End of week catch up!!

05.01.2022 #mentalhealthweek When you’re drowning in the dark hole of depression and anxiety nothing people say to you seems to reach you. At least this is what it felt t...o me. People who meant well said platitudes and nice things to me And I was deeply appreciative. But after a while I stopped listening because my pain was still there. My heart was bleeding. My soul was crushed. I stopped living. I wanted to just stay in bed and sleep and pretend that the world didn't exist. That pain and fear. You can’t describe it to anyone who has never dealt with depression and anxiety. But it is being experienced by more and more people in our community. And unless we talk about it in the open those who are affected by it will continue to feel isolated and lonely. If that’s you please know this: you are not alone. Even if you’re hiding we can SEE you and we understand how you feel. Much love. Vikki

03.01.2022 Did you know that our self-esteem can fluctuate from day to day and hour to hour? Much like a bad hair day, we might wake up feeling great about ourselves one day and totally insecure the next. We tend to think of our self-esteem as being either generally good or bad but it is much more fluid than that, continually shifting up and down based on the internal feedback we give ourselves and the external feedback we get from our environment. ... This is also great news, because it means that if you are feeling a bit low or lacking in confidence at any point in time, there are some simple things that you can do to change how you feel. Check out our blog below for some ideas on how to help get your mojo back and celebrate being the wonderful YOU that you most certainly are.

02.01.2022 friends are so important

02.01.2022 #mentalhealthweek2020 We had a great chat with Monika Mundell about the mental health challenges that many of us are facing at this uncertain time. We talk about Vikki's personal mental health journey and how we are always encourage those who are struggling not to feel guilty about taking time out for themselves. We also chatted about the importance of both asking for and accepting help from others. We'd love you to sign up FREE for the upcoming VITAlity Festival - it's for ...everyone who is looking to be educated, uplifted and inspired about their health and wellbeing. The Festival starts 31 October... https://vitavibeevents.com/

02.01.2022 Check out this great presentation by Libbi Gorr as part of Women's Health Week 2020. The discussion is particularly pertinent given that so many Australian women are under enormous pressure and strain as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The overarching message is that 'we should be encouraging kindness and care in the face of the pandemic - to yourselves as much as others'.... Would love to hear your thoughts on the coping strategies that they discuss in the show.
