Weekdays

It is Mental Health week and we want to spread awareness about the Community role in mental health. Ashleigh Campbell is from Richmond Wellbeing and is a peer support worker and client. Ashleigh participated in one of Richmond Wellbeing’s residential programs, Recovery House and found the experience to be very different from the mental health support services she had received previously, mainly because of its focus on community and personalised recovery.

If you or anyone you know is struggling with mental health, know that help is available 24 hours on 13 11 14.

Graham Irvine from Kingsway Christian College joined Bec in the studio and they spoke about resilience in kids. Resilience and change goes hand in hand. Resilience is the idea that we can bounce back from something that has happened unexpectedly. Different personalites will deal with change differently. Ease your kids into change. What have we done as parents that have helped build resilience in our kids? 

Melanie Jaye joins Bec in the studio and today they spoke about glandular fever. Glandular fever is a very common illness that comes around this time of the year. We usually see grandular fever more in schools due to stress that kids may face during year 12 and once contracted it is very contagious. Some symotoms might be extreme fatigue, sore throat, could be a bit of sinus and a high fever. Dose up on your vitamins to help maintain that healthy immune system.

It is "Apologies" month at Kin women and today they are looking at "When is it a good time to apologise". It is very powerful to say sorry and at times it shows more strength than weakness. We should apologise if we know we could have done it better. It's never too late to say sorry to someone you might have wronged. It is also best to say sorry if you accidentatlly have affended someone else even when you don't think you have. Be quick to say you're sorry and mean it! Sometimes we don't want someone to see our vulnerability and thus apologise for who we are. Don't be ashamed or apologise for who you are espeically when it comes to your strengths or for who you are. Don't apologise when you want to shut things down. 

Bec had a chat with Graham Irvine who is from Kingsway Christian College and today they spoke about independence in our children. The goal of parenting is to produce an outcome of a fully functioning independent adult. 

Bec had a chat with Melanie Jaye who is from Eden Naturopathy and today they spoke probiotics and antibiotics and if we can take them together at the same time or do they need to be taken separately for optimum obsorption. 

Bec had her regular chat with Danille who is one of the senior pastors at Hillsongs church in Perth and today they spoke about friendships in marriage. Part of having a great friendship comes down to knowing each other intimately. Couples who have deep friendships are usually well versed in each others dislikes, personality quirks, hopes and dreams. Expressing fondness not just in big ways but through small gestures each day.

Bec had her regular chat with Craig Hunter who is the deputy principle at Rehoboth Christian College and today they spoke about why data is important for teachers teaching effectively, what the benefits are to the school and how it works and what the benefits are to students.

Sue Joy joined Bec in the studio for her regular chat and today they spoke about one of Sue's many healthy delicious recipes, Paleo Corn Chips. These corn chips don't have any corn or grains in them so it will make your tummy feel much better. You can easily have them with dips, chilli beef, use them on nachos or even crumble them over a taco salad.
