Take a minute is a new and preventative way for Tasmanians to improve their mental health and wellbeing. This is initially being brought to life with the 7 minute challenge, which asks us all to Take a minute each day for seven days to reflect on some of the things that make us feel good, help us relax and unwind, and give our lives purpose and meaning. Are you ready for the challenge? It will just Take a minute! Click on the button below to join in 🙂
The goal is to help Tasmanians make a conscious link between some of the people, places, activities and other things we have in our lives, and the positive impact those things have on their mental wellbeing. This helps us tap into our own inner strength, leveraging the good things we already have in our lives, to maintain and boost our wellbeing while also helping us overcome some of the challenges and uncertainty that life throws at us.
This initiative is a perfect compliment to our mindfulness teachings and we encourage all Tasmanians to join in and Take a minute!
