As a family Doctor, I teach a lot of my patients about incidental exercise and incidental mindfulness. Incidental exercise is where we incorporate what we do everyday including chores as a form of exercise. When we park our cars, we can park the car further away so that we can increase our walking as exercise. When we perform house chores or working in the garden, we frame it as a form of exercise. It is practical and pragmatic. It reduces barriers to take action. As I love to share ideas around emotional literacy and emotional processing to improve people's mental health and wellbeing, I have decided to trial incidental YouTubing and incorporate it into my work life. It will make it more practical and achievable. Let's see how that goes........
The aim of this site is to provide psychoeducation through a growing network of Doctors, Psychologists, Allied Health Professionals, and Inspiring Individuals who share a passion in raising more awareness and knowledge about Mental Health, Biopsychosocial model of health and wellbeing, and through a collaborative approach, a better outcome can hopefully be achieved. It is site for "everyone" and purely for the purpose of education and NOT as a replacement for therapy.
