As May is Mental Health Awareness Month, I had an idea to write a letter each day to a person, or group of people that have had an impact on my own personal health. The first portion of the month has been delayed, however I hope that I will catch up and there will be a daily post. Thank You for taking the time to read these and I appreciate any comments or support you can provide on each post.
Please remember that if you are struggling with your health, both physical or mental, there may be some triggers in these letters-please seek support if you find these letters trigger any distress. Look after yourself!!
Letter 16 – To The Mighty
Embracing your Needs – With Help from The Mighty.
This post is helping to share an important post I saw on The Mighty; click here to read it.
It is all about #embracinyourneeds and published the “I Need Cards” – asking to download and share the cards. I thought this was an amazing idea so you can download the cards below or visit the link above to download them directly from The Mighty.
This letter is all about helping others, I hope by sharing these files/images with you that you can either use them for yourself or share them with others that you feel could benefit from them.
