H is for Help (Secondary)
Help me, help you…
During these changing times, there have been SO many examples of folk helping each other out. Of communities pulling together to look out for each other. Yet asking for help can sometimes make us feel vulnerable and receiving help can make us feel selfish!?!? And sometimes we’re just not aware of how strong we actually are and of how we can help ourselves.
Super Helpful
During these unprecedented times we need each other more than ever. Here’s some simple ways to allow help into our lives:
1. Develop a habit of checking in with yourself regularly throughout the day. Pause. Stop. Take a few deeper breaths. What do I need just now? Ask yourself how can I help myself in this moment?
2. Asking for help can feel difficult. Yet, asking to help is actually really brave and it means that we recognise we can’t do everything ourselves. Asking for help is also a great reminder that we’re all connected and we’re not in this alone. Who do you trust that you can you ask for help when you need it?
3. Help others! Get into the habit of regularly helping out - perhaps at home, perhaps with your family, perhaps with your fiends.
Final take
Helping others actually makes you feel good! Not sure? Just try it :)
