Peer Group Chat // Self Care // Thursday 8th September 2022, 7-8:30PM AEST

[Former-Member]

Hi everyone!

Our Peer Group Chat tonight Thursday 8th September 2022 will be on the topic of Self Care.

Self-care allows us to cope with the day-to-day, and is an important part of recovery and wellbeing. Different things will be helpful for different people – in this group we’ll come together to reflect on how we can best look after ourselves. 

Within this group tonight we’ll be talking about: 

• Moving through any roadblocks and finding self-care that works for us 
• How self-care can involve things that are difficult but important 
• How we can consider community care, without all the responsibility being on individuals
   

For those unfamiliar to Peer Group Chats, each focuses on a specific topic and is guided by Peer Workers with lived experience of mental health issues and recovery. A counsellor is also present to assist in ensuring a safe environment for individuals and the group. It is a space for us as peers to share our stories and experiences, and connect with those who are going through something similar. 

The event start times across Australia are below:

WA: 5pm 
NT & SA: 6:30pm 

QLD, NSW, ACT, VIC & TAS: 7pm
