Podcasts about mental health awareness week

Unless you've been living under a rock you'll know that we've just had Mental Health Awareness Week. It's a great initiative by the Mental Health Foundation to normalise talking and thinking about mental health! Pop quiz – how many Kiwi adults do you think will, in their lifetime, experience a major mental health problem? According to Ministry of Health, it's 47% of us. But data from the Dunedin Longitudinal Study suggests this figure might be closer to 80%. So that means most of us will experience some mental health problems in our lifetime – that shows it's pretty normal! This year, Mental Health Awareness Week's theme is Top Up Together – focusing on how to “top up” your mental health with others, which can help protect us against developing mental health problems. To top up our mental health we can use the 5 ways to wellbeing: Connect, Be Active, Take Notice, Keep Learning, and Give. I wanted to share some of my tips to top-up in each of the 5 areas: Connect – very 3rd Thursday of the month me and a bunch of friends get together for “Thirsty Thursday” at our local. Some of us have a beer, some have a soft drink – it doesn't matter. Sometimes there are 6 of us sometimes 16 – whoever can make it, makes it. We talk about everything from how to cook brisket to the state of cricket in NZ to what makes a “good” or “bad” person. Be Active – try and make this an everyday habit. I go for a 45min walk every morning at 6am. It's now so much of a habit that I need to do it otherwise I really notice it Take Notice – I've just sparked up my mindfulness practice again Keep Learning – I'll use my lovely wife as an example here – she's halfway through an online Te Reo course – she's doing this together with others Give – give time, or social support, or resources to help others – can be volunteering at your local soup kitchen or coaching your kid's sports team or helping replant native bush. In a few weeks time I'll be helping out at the St Michael's church fair in Kelburn – giving some stuff and helping run the white elephant stall. Lots of research shows that the act of giving is just as helpful to the “giver” as to those receiving the help The challenge for listeners – how can you top up your mental health together with others.

Drawing from powerful stories, Scripture, and decades of mental health insight, Naomi and Matt share about how God calls us into relationships that restore, uplift, and make a lasting difference.Together, let's lean into the theme of “Topping Up Together”, be inspired by stories of transformation, and reflect on how loving deeply can change lives—starting with our own.

It's mental health awareness week from tomorrow, and you might ask what the hell has it to do with nutrition, but food has more to do with your mood than people realise. The types of foods you consume can have a not only an impact on your physical health, but your mental health too. What kind of foods make you feel better, inside and out? And what are those comfort foods you just can't let go of? Nutritionist Claire Turnbull joined Tim Beveridge for The Health Hub. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The post September 23, 2025: Sandpoint Mental Health Awareness Week appeared first on KRFY Radio.

In this stylish and soulful episode of BLAM Black History Bites, we explore the rich legacy of Black Dandyism, from the bold elegance of the Congolese Sapeurs to Harlem's legendary Dapper Dan, and how fashion has long been a form of protest, pride, and protection for Black men.Tied to this months Father's Day and Men's Mental Health Awareness Week, this episode unpacks how Black men have used clothing not just to look good, but to feel seen, respected, and whole in a world that too often misreads them. We dive into the threads between style and survival, and why a sharp suit or a clean fade can be an act of self-love.

Couch to coached - AWARD WINNING running podcast.Season 3 Ep 82 – Lost Parkruns, Mini Athletics & Men's Mental HealthThis week, it's just Rob and Ben — and trust us, that's more than enough chaos to fill an hour.From getting hilariously lost en route to a parkrun to dodging technical issues at the start of the show, the lads dive into a packed weekend of events, training updates, and parenting wins. Ben recounts a wild mini athletics competition (yes, toddlers can sprint!), while Rob reflects on the joy and madness of Maccasfield Parkrun.But it's not all laughs — it's also Men's Mental Health Awareness Week, and Rob and Ben take time to open up about the importance of checking in, talking, and running as a tool for wellbeing. With shout outs to inspiring local runners and a look ahead to exciting future guests, this one's a feel-good mix of honesty, humour, and community love.

Being part of a community can make life feel more meaningful & enjoyable and is vital for our mental health and wellbeing.

Mental Health Awareness Week is being recognised worldwide, as well as the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia.

Foundations of Amateur Radio Around the world are thousands of associations, groups of people, clubs if you like, that represent radio amateurs. Some of those associations are anointed with a special status, that of "member society" or "peak body", which allows them to represent their country with their own governments and on the international stage to the ITU, the International Telecommunications Union, through a global organisation, the IARU, the International Amateur Radio Union. Some of these are known across our whole community, the ARRL in the USA, the RSGB in the UK, and the WIA in Australia. Some much less so, the CRAC, the Chinese Radio Amateurs Club, or the ARSI, the Amateur Radio Society of India, for example. In an attempt to get a deeper understanding of what distinguishes these organisations, I visited a dozen member society websites. Cultural sensibilities and aesthetics aside, the variety and sense of priority is both pleasing and astounding. Starting close to home, the WIA, the Wireless Institute of Australia, shows news as the most important and the top story is a radio contact between the International Space Station and a school, held about two weeks ago. The ERAU, the Estonian Radio Amateurs Association, features an article about the 2025 General Meeting outlining who was there, what was discussed and thanking the participants for their contributions. When I visited, the ARRL, the American Radio Relay League, top news item, was the renewed defence of the 902-928 MHz Amateur Radio Band, from a few days ago. The most important issue for the ARRL is that you read the latest edition of QST magazine, but only if you're a member. The RSGB, the Radio Society of Great Britain, has an odd landing page that links to the main site, which features much of the same content. The latest news is "Mental Health Awareness Week" and encourages us to celebrate kindness in our community. The DARC, the German Amateur Radio Club, has a page full of announcements and the top one was an article about current solar activity including a coronal hole and various solar flares. The ERASD, the Egyptian Radio Amateurs Society for Development, uses qsl.net as its main website. It features many images with text, presumably in Arabic, that unfortunately I was not able to translate. Curiously the landing page features some English text that welcomes all interested to join. I confess that I love the juxtaposition between a Yaesu FT-2000 transceiver and the images of Tutankhamun and the pyramids. The RAC, the Radio Amateurs of Canada, use their homepage to promote its purpose, and features many pictures of their bi-monthly magazine, which you can only read if you're a member, which is where many of the homepage links seem to go. The RCA, the Radio Club of Argentina, is promoting the 2024-2025 Railway Marathon, including links to descriptions of what constitutes a Railway Activation, how to reserve your station, and upcoming and past activations. There's also a reminder to renew your license. The ARSI, the Amateur Radio Society of India, has a very sparse landing page showing their mission and not much else. Clicking around gives you lots of information about the history, activities, awards and the like. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find out how to become licensed in India. There's hardly any images. In contrast, the URA, the Union of Radio Amateurs of Andorra, lands you on a page with contact details and not much else. Clicking through the site gives you lots of pictures of happy people and maps, lots of maps. The KARL, the Korean Amateur Radio League, features an announcement with a link to the 24th Amateur Radio Direction Finding, from a week ago, but it requires a login to actually read it. The JARL, the Japan Amateur Radio League, features an announcement to a form you can complete to join the "List of stations from which you do not wish to receive QSL cards." The NZART, the New Zealand Association of Radio Transmitters, features a big button to latest news and clicking on it shows the "Jock White Field Day", which was held several months ago. I wasn't able to see the CRAC, the Chinese Radio Amateurs Club, since the page didn't load for me. The "Wayback machine", also known as archive.org, from a capture a few days ago, showed a news item announcing the intent to organise the 1st Class C Amateur Radio Technical "something", I say "something" because I cannot actually load the article and see what it has to say. The event was scheduled for a month ago, the announcement was from several months ago. Content aside, finding sites was interesting too, mind you, there's plenty of member associations that don't have any web presence at all. Is that by choice, or necessity? The IARU list of member societies conflicts with the list of national organisations shown on Wikipedia. The IARU has about 160 entries, I say about, since the list isn't really formatted as much as it's congealed. Let's just say, perhaps a table for tabular data might be a novel approach. Wikipedia is slightly better formatted, it lists 93 national organisations. As it happens, both include a link to the national organisation for China, which is either the Chinese Radio Sports Association, with apparently two different acronyms, either CRSAOA, or CRSA, or if you believe the IARU as a source, it's the one I mentioned earlier, the CRAC. I don't know which one is right, but at least we can assume that the IARU page was updated formally, rather than edited by someone on the internet. Regardless of which one is the "real" Chinese national amateur radio organisation, none of the websites loaded for me. Let's move on. It's interesting that several non-English sites like Korea, Japan and Germany feature a button that allows their site to be translated into English. What's even more interesting is that the English version of the site is not in any way the same content. In many cases it appears to be information relevant to English visitors rather than a translation. One notable exception is Estonia, which allows a visitor to read their site in Estonian or English right out of the box. Unsurprisingly, the ARRL website has no buttons for Spanish, even though that represents about 13 percent of the USA population, let alone any other language. I'd encourage you to visit a few and see what you can learn about the other members of our community around the world. My visits leave me with questions. What do these organisations stand for? What do they do? Are they there for amateurs, for aspirant members, the general public, for regulators, for their members, for fund raising and advertising, or international visitors and tourism? It seems to me that looking at just a few of these organisations reveals a great many things about how they understand their own role and how they deliver service and just how much money they have to play with to make that happen. I'll leave you to ponder how effective they might be and what your role is in that endeavour. I'm Onno VK6FLAB

Relationships are not without drama - but when the drama in the present is actually triggering things from the past…we might be in danger of losing that relationship.  Learn about our very human responses to survive & how they sometimes happen so often, they become habit. Whether it's your relational trauma or the trauma of someone you know and love - we can all use tools to recognize trauma responses in relationships (and hopefully support a more intentional shift). And if you can't play with this today? That's okay too. Stay curious. We'll see you later, or in the next episode friend. 

Recognize trauma immediately - without getting sucked in to the emotional vortex. Come away with a creative intervention to help you recognize and process the trauma in your life, as well as resources for dealing with trauma and PTSD professionally. Whether it's your trauma or the trauma of someone you know and love - we can all use tools to recognize the hardest things in life. It starts with you, so have a journal on hand or a good friend to dialogue with what comes up for you in this episode. And if you can't play with this today? That's okay too. Stay curious. We'll see you later, or in the next episode friend.

What if there was a way to control our emotions more when it mattered? Get ready to hold your own as you 1) Notice 2) Channel, and 3) Express your emotions as energy BEFORE they hijack your world. Whether you're the person that implodes or explodes - we all need tools for balancing our emotions. It starts with you, so have a journal on hand or a good friend to dialogue with what comes up for you in this episode. And if you can't play with this today? That's okay too. Stay curious. We'll see you later, or in the next episode friend.

I've always been confused by some of the things we're conditioned to believe. Ya know, the girls can't do this and only boys can do that kind of things. It's Men's Mental Health (Awareness) Month. And Men's Mental Health (Awareness) Week. Necessary? Absolutely! On today's episode of The Be Ruthless Show, I discuss why all mental health awareness days matter. I discuss why having the conversations matter - and more importantly, why not having them matters more.

In our latest Scotland Outdoors podcast Helen Needham meets regenerative farmer Nikki Yoxall in the hills of Aberdeenshire. Nikki's cattle are outside all year round, moving from field to field as part of a system called mob grazing. She tells Helen about the benefits it has for the cattle and the land.In the last few years, there's been an explosion in the number of community run gardens across the country. These bring huge positives to those who look after and visit them. However, new research from Aberdeen University suggests that sometimes the pressures of running such a project can mount up. Rachel went to speak to Professor David Burslem to hear more.The theme of this year's Mental Health Awareness Week has been movement, and on Out of Doors, we love nothing better to help clear our heads than heading out for a walk. Mark went along to join a group doing just that with Moray based charity Nature 4 Health. They aim to connect people with nature, each other and themselves, and Mark hears from some of those taking part about the benefits they feel of being part of the group.A new project linking up poets with farmers to shine a light on growing food has been launched by the Gaia Foundation. It involves 10 poets around the UK who each spent time on farms in order to produce a new poem. For the Scotland Outdoors podcast, Helen Needham went to meet Edinburgh-based poet Iona Lee who was paired with Lauriston Agroecology Farm in the city. They went for a wander on a very wet day to chat about Iona's relationship with the natural world.Mark visits the National Trust for Scotland's St Abb's Head National Nature Reserve to see how the seabird colony there is faring.As Mental Health Awareness Week comes to an end, on Saturday we celebrate World Therapeutic Horticultural Day. One of the organisations involved is Trellis, who are based in Perth. We chat live to Fiona Thackeray, their chief executive officer, about what therapeutic gardening is and the different people they work with.If you're interested in climbing, you might want to check out a new BBC podcast. It's part of a series called Amazing Sports Stories and it's called Chasing Mountains. Rachel spoke to the presenters Joanna Jolly and Kathy Karlo who told her more about making the series and let her hear some clips.Have you ever heard of the term Everesting? The idea is simple, but the activity is incredibly tough. Cyclists pick a hill and ride repeats of it in a single activity until they climb the height of Mount Everest - 8,848m. It's something that musician Mark Bruce has become passionate about after struggling with his mental health. He told our Travelling Folk colleagues about his challenges, and we hear an excerpt where he talks about how extreme exercise saved him.And to round off Mental Health Awareness week, we take a moment to be mindful with a soundscape.

As part of Mental Health Awareness Week, Fearne looks back at some of the conversations she's had on Happy Place that shine a light on particular mental health conditions.

Plus, neuroscientist TJ Power chats about how to increase serotonin levels, and sleep physiologist Stephanie Romiszewski talks through how to combat insomnia.
