Healthy Me: Mental Well-being and Mindfulness

You can’t see mental well-being but you can feel it. Your mental well-being is all about how you think and feel. Some people call it ‘mental health’ or ’emotional well-being’. Having good mental health doesn’t mean being happy all the time. We all experience feelings of anger, sadness, fear and frustration. These feelings are perfectly normal. Mental well-being comes from finding positive ways to manage these feelings as you grow and develop.

This simply written title explores what mental health is, why it is important, and ways to deal with some mental health problems such as stress and anxiety. The book includes mindfulness techniques and advice to help with relaxation and coping strategies. The topics of mental well-being and mindfulness are complemented by charming, clear illustrations, and at the back of the book there are notes for parents and teachers that provide additional advice and support as well as further activity ideas and information.
