Keeping mentally healthy is just as important as staying physically healthy. Through the Act Belong Commit campaign, you can find out about activities in Cockburn that promote mental health wellbeing. Being active, having a sense of belonging, and having a purpose in life all contribute to good mental health. We not only feel happier, but we can cope better with problems and stress. There are many things you can do in your day-to-day life to improve and maintain your mental health:
ACT to improve your mental health by taking a walk, reading a book, dancing, playing cards or stopping for a chat.
BELONG to improve your mental health by joining a book club, taking a cooking class or going along to community events and festivals.
COMMIT to improve your mental health by taking up a cause, volunteering, helping a neighbour, learning something new or taking on a challenge.
