25.01.2022 Standing Strong Tweens What a way to spend a raining day! My heart is bursting with the vibe in here today while the girls are finding their voice

25.01.2022 SELF LOVE Body image is a huge topic, especially for our teens. Last week the teens spoke about body imagine, sharing stories, supporting one another and beginning to look at themselves in a beautiful and loving way.... The quote below is a great reminder to anyone one out there struggling with their appearance. We see you, the true you, and you are BEAUTIFUL. Today look in the mirror and tell yourself one thing you love about your body. Leave a comment below and let us know what kind words you told yourself today. Thanks to @katewas_ on insta for allowing us to share her photos and story!

24.01.2022 Strong Tweens Friendship changes....this is something that happens from a very young age and it can be pretty hard to avoid! Last week the girls shared their stories and experiences on this topic. They spoke about how it can make you feel confused, sad and lonely.......but in turn can also allow you to listen to your boundaries, surround yourself with people who have the same values as you, meet new friends and discover a lot about yourself. ... In the strong heart section the girls wrote friendship release letters, letting go of any friendship that they have been holding on to that may have caused them hurt. THEN..... We ripped these letters up, allowing the girls to let go, move forward, honour themselves and the friendships they deserve.

23.01.2022 Today at Standing Strong Hillarys, the girls were guided through a session on making new friends! When most girls arrive on the first day for Standing Strong they often say they are nervous and a bit worried. So this topic is the perfect start to the term as it helps break the ice and relieve some of the worry about doing something new and meeting new people. By providing a nurturing and supportive space they can learn how to make new friends with confidence. ...During the session they ask questions and find things in common with other girls in the group. They learn to discover how to listen to others, respect each others ideas and how to trust and support one another. They also get to sing and dance and connect through play! It is so amazing to hear the excitement and energy build in the room as they settle into the session! Its never to late to introduce your daughter to this experience, contact us to find out how!

21.01.2022 STRONG TEENS With so much happening in the world at the moment it is very easy to start to focus on things out of our control, rather then focus on the things we can.... for instance we can manage to a greater extent, our thoughts, our words, our actions. Last week the girls made there own personal affirmations to remind themselves of their worth, their love and to put a smile on their face. ... What affirmation are you telling yourself this week? Its the repetition of affirmations that leads to beliefs, and once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen. Please note: the above photo was taken prior to the new social distancing recommendations took affect!

21.01.2022 At Standing Strong Hillarys, we rise by lifting others And theres still time to get your girls involved! Book now for our online programs starting Monday!

20.01.2022 Are you feeling lonely at this unusual time? Loneliness.... is a very predominant topic with everything happening right now, and you are not alone in feeling this way. This was a topic we spoke about this week in all our age groups, and a very real topic for all the girls right now as they are struggling being away from family members, friends and other social experiences. Further to this the uncertainty of not knowing when this will be over has made it even harder for them.... We allowed the girls a safe space to discuss how they are feeling, we allowed them the space to feel sad and upset about being away from some family and friends and then they shared what makes them feel better at this time. We discussed other ways communication and connection can be had and the importance of alone time. The older girls created an Alone Time Love Folder. This folder consisted of affirmations, ideas and activities that make them feel good, which they can remind themselves to do when they feel alone. What are some things you would put in your Alone Time Love Folder? Here is whats on mine, feel free to borrow it as your own! Jodie Standing Strong Co-ordinator @Brave Heart Wellbeing

20.01.2022 Only a few days until we kick off these online programs and spaces for our Monday session are limited! Enrol ASAP to secure a spot

18.01.2022 Thats a wrap We are finishing up our 4 week holiday program this week, and despite being online we are still giving the girls the party they deserve with dress ups, food, laughs and celebrations. For the last 4 weeks we have been able to connect with all the girls twice a week, creating a safe space for connection at this unusual time in our lives. The girls adapted to the change of being online with open arms and an open heart. They have been brave, courageous, honest, supportive and caring. Its beautiful to see such a connection has still been formed despite physical distancing being in place.

18.01.2022 Services Update - Telehealth Are you concerned how you can access support if you are in isolation or we go into lock-down? As of March 13th the Federal Gove...rnment have allocated new item numbers for Psychologists so that telehealth facilities can be made available and you can seek mental health support via zoom, skype, phone or facetime. In order to access this scheme you have to meet specific (Federal Government) criteria including: People isolating themselves at home on the advice of a medical practitioner or in accordance with home isolation guidance issued by the Australian Health Protection Principal Committee (AHPPC); People who meet the testing guidelines for COVID-19; People aged over 70; Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged over 50; People with chronic health conditions or who are immunocompromised; and Parents with new babies and people who are pregnant. If you meet this criteria, the services are fully bulk-billed. Therefore, there will be no out of pocket expense to you! If you are self-isolating without meeting the above criteria, we can still provide the support, however you will not receive the rebate and you will pay your normal fee. If you are worried about this, please contact us to discuss options. We are here to support you and will do whatever we can, in line with health and government regulations to bring you these services.

17.01.2022 We understand and empathise that with so much constantly changing at the moment, a little break, breather and space is needed. As term 2 begins, we know it is going to look very different from family to family. We want to give you the space to figure out how term 2 will look for you and give you time to settle into these changes. With this being said we are not currently opening up a full term 2 program. We will be reassessing in a few weeks where we, as a community, are and ...make a decision from there as to whether we reopen for a shorter term online (or face to face). Expressions of interest have already been opened online, if you are interested in signing your daughter up please head over to our website to put your name down and be the first to know about our next program dates. For now, we are here to support you however we can and would love any suggestions about topics your daughter is really needing right now so we can plan the programs accordingly. Stay safe, and we will see you very soon

17.01.2022 STRONG Body The Strong Body section in our Standing Strong program is all about movement. Whether the movement be big or small, fast or slow, this is a time where we get the blood flowing, energy shaking, and start to connect as a group. We know that movement can vary for everyone, with some people loving it and others not so much. So we use this to not only move our bodies, but acknowledge the importance of movement and recognising what we love about our bodies....in a ...safe and judgement free space! Our bodies allow us the ability to walk with our friends, run with our pets, swim in the sea, hug our family, smell, taste and store delicious food, see beautiful sunsets, feel love and compassion in our hearts, and so many more amazing things everyday day. Whats one body positive comment you can say to yourself today...?

15.01.2022 Seeking support during crisis In relation to the current outbreak of COVID-19 young people and families can experience increased stress and feel overwhelmed... with worry. This experience may be different for each individual and we may react and communicate our concerns in different ways. You will notice more media headlines in relation to COVID-19, there may be more exposure through conversation with our families and via community forums, your usual places to hang out may have restricted access or notices warning of the virus. Unfortunately, some of this information may give conflicting stories and it can be hard to know what to believe. Some tips to manage your worry at this time: Reach out to support networks (see numbers below); Talk to a trusted person about your worries; Stay active whenever possible; While it is important to keep up to date with current advice it is also ok to have a break from communication sources, such as social media or the news Introduce some mindfulness activities that can assist in lowering your stress and give you space to think logically about your specific risk; Make time for social connection (with good hygiene practices in place); Eat well; Make time for rest. You can reach out for support on the following numbers: Coronavirus Health Information Line 1800 020 080 Healthdirect Hotline 1800 022 222 Lifeline 13 11 14 Kids Helpline 1800 551 800 Headspace 1800 650 890 At Brave Heart Wellbeing we will be doing out best to provide a safe space for you to continue accessing support, including providing hand sanitiser and maintaining good hygiene practices.

14.01.2022 One week into our 4 week online program and we are loving it just as much as the girls Seeing the girls twice a week has been absolutely incredible. Last week we spoke about worries and anxiety, a topic all the girls had a lot to talk about. We loved that we could provide them a safe space to voice their current worries, provide them support and tools to practice in these times and have some high vibe connections and smiles.... Although we are one week down we still have six sessions left and we are excited to let you know that we are keeping our programs open so your daughter can still join in!

12.01.2022 so much for our new group of Tweens Today they are exploring group values and discovering what is important to them as a group and what they hope to get out of the program! The conversations are so encouraging and supportive!

11.01.2022 You are worth every bit of love We can fall in love with other people, with all living beings, but we so often forget to show love to the most important being, ourselves. We have been made to feel that we must earn our worth, we need to do something or be a certain way to be worthy of this love, but from the moment you took your first breath all your worth is there, it never leaves you, it is always there. This week we are talking about self love with the girls, what makes them uniquely them, what makes their heart sing, as we remind them of their incredibly beautiful selves and everything they are worth!

11.01.2022 Strong Juniors Today we are learning all about over coming challenges we are learning that sometimes we experience situations and events that can lead to worry and feeling scared and we talked about some strategies to work through this! We love watching the girls grow bonds of friendship in a safe space!

08.01.2022 C A N D L E G A Z I N G This week in our STRONG heart session we practiced candle gazing. This time allowed the girls to slow down, feel a sense of calm and focus on the flickering light. After a moment to themselves the girls bought to mind someone they loved, as they looked into the light they thought of this person filling them up with love, gratitude and a sense of grounding. It was so beautiful to hear that the girls have shared this practice of gratitude, love an...d grounding with their family What are some practices you do to feel grounded?

04.01.2022 Nutrition and mindful eating Nutrition, balance and awareness of food plays an important role in how we feel, not just physically, but emotionally. It is important we see food in a healthy manner, rather than something we have to eat or something we over indulge on. For a lot of young people it can be quite hard to develop a healthy relationship with food. This week in our workshops we speak to the older girls about nutrition, and have a play with mindful eating. Mindful ...eating is such a powerful tool to use to allow for slowing down, becoming aware of what you are eating, enjoying the taste and feel of food and being present. We have 4 sessions left of this program and its not too late to enrol your daughter, we welcome her with open arms at any time!

If you have any questions or just want to have a chat to find out more please feel free to contact me at [email protected] or (08) 6118 6108 I so look forward to meeting you all as our community continues to grow and we watch these young people take on the world!
