Focusing on the positives of checking in with your mental health, the festival will enable you to identify how to nurture your mental health and wellbeing, thrive in your work, and all aspects of your life.
What is the Good Mental Health festival?
Good Mental Health festival is a one-day digital event focused on sharing a positive way to approach mental health, from the standpoint of nurture and openness about our experiences, all from a place of balance.
There is still a strong need to release the stigma attached to mental health, placing more emphasis on the positive side as well as what it means for our mental health to fluctuate.
Good Mental Health has been designed to explore a broad range of perspectives, identifying how to nurture your mental wellbeing as professionals so you can thrive in your work, and all aspects of your life.
