Hey There 👋 

Happy Better Yourself Friday! 🎉 We’re officially ending the second week of December and it’s that time of year where everything is starting to slowing down just a little. And honestly? It’s the perfect moment to pause and celebrate everything you’ve achieved in 2025, big or small. Because, here’s the thing, celebration is not just about the big moments, it’s about recognising the quiet wins too 🌟

Maybe you passed a module you struggled with. Maybe you secured an internship or took a brave step in your career. Or just maybe, you showed up on the days when motivation was nowhere to be found. Whatever your milestone was, it matters. It shaped you. And it deserves to be acknowledged. In the spirit of reflection, you can start off by going through these few questions.

What’s one thing you’re proud of from this year? What did you achieve that the “old you” would be excited about? What’s a small win that made a big difference in your confidence? After thinking about these answers for yourself, use any method you prefer to document them. You could write it down, say it out loud or share it with someone you trust. Let yourself feel proud, you earned it.

Lastly, as we move deeper into the festive season, make space to rest, recharge, and truly appreciate the journey you’ve taken this year. You’ve grown, you’ve learned, and you’ve come so far that’s worth celebrating all month. 😊

So without further ado, here’s another installment of Better Yourself Friday

Let's Gerrit!

Gratitude - A Mental Health Game Changer

Practising gratitude trains your brain to notice and appreciate positive moments. This can boost happiness, wellbeing, and life satisfaction while reducing anxiety, depression, and anger.

It helps break cycles of negative thinking by bringing your focus back to the present too. Gratitude doesn’t necessarily erase pain, but it offers a healthier way to cope with tough thoughts by grounding you in appreciation and perspective.
