Bec had a chat with Maryka Groenewald who is the WA State Director for Australian Christians. Today they spoke about viral kindness and how we can be more helpful in our community during this uncertain time. 

Bec had a chat with Hayley Clarke who is the recycling expert & managing director of Onya. The likelihood that many Australians will end up working from home in the next coming weeks or possibly even within this week is quite daunting but it is not all bad. Hayley offered some practical advice on how teams can stay connected whilst working from home. 

Amanda Viviers from Kin Women had a chat with Bec this morning about how we can be together. During this time we can become quite alone. But we still need to have our conversations with the people around us, with people whom we normally won't have conversations with especially with elderly people. Talk to your family about the emotions you are experiencing and activate the practice of peace. 

Since we have to stay at home more we can do things together as a family like sitting around the dinner table and explore some creativity together. Amanda spoke about her book, "Together: Family Vision Book" and there are some good things to do as a family in her book.

Bec had a chat with Scott Phillips who is from Kids Safe WA and today they spoke home safety and kids. We are facing a time where we possibly need to keep our kids at home but how do we keep them safe? There is a checklist that Scott gave us that we can follow. 

Bec had a chat with Naturopath, Maria Aurora, who is from Perth Psoriasis Skin Clinic. They spoke about how we can keep our skin clean and moisturised when we have to wash our hands during this season we are in. 

Bec had a chat with Sue Joy who is the author of the Joyful Table and she just released her new book which contains all the healthy alternative bread options. Today she shared her paleo crumpets with us. They were delicious!

Bec had a chat with Iris Thomas who is from the Department of Consumer Protection. They spoke about extended warranties and whether they are worth the paper they are written on. In 2019, Consumer Protection received 117 complaints relating to extended warraties. This represented a 23% increase compared to 2018. 

Bec had a chat with Graham Irvine who is the Head of Christian Education at Kingsway Christian College. Today they spoke about stress in older kids. How can we help our kids when they are dealing with stress. When you cannot see a way out you experience stress and this is because we do not know what is going to happen. Signs for stress can be misleading for just being a teenager. But we can help them by, 

1. Looking out for things that are out of their normal behavior. 

2. Encouraging them to talk. How can I as a parent help you?

3. Seeing where the stress is coming from. Sometimes technology can cause more unnecessary stress. Have a good look at how technology is influencing their lives. If it is why not draw the line with technology in the household. Start developing good habits, don't let it become the master in your household.
