Rest isn’t indulgent, it’s a core part of psychological and emotional wellbeing. For many of us, Sundays offer space to reset our nervous systems before the week ahead.
Take the opportunity to rest up today.

Living with #lateeffects of childhood/adolescent #cancer and cancer treatments can be challenging, with emotional, cognitive, and social impacts. Psychological interventions can improve quality of life, enhance coping, and support overall wellbeing. #clinicalpsychology

We presented a poster reporting on the survivorship needs of cancer patients in their 20s and 30s based on focus groups of patients and staff at #surv25 today

This work will help us shape what we provide for young patients in the Alfred Cancer Integrative Oncology and Wellness Centre.

On #worldcancerday we started our eight-week Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy Group at @alfredhealth.bsky.social Paula Fox Melanoma and Cancer Centre today. Providing evidence-based psychological interventions is integral to good quality cancer care to enhance quality of life and wellbeing.

I had to endure the heat with my cat, who insisted he wanted to sit outside despite the intense heatwave. He stayed there for 10 minutes. We’re now back in the AC 🥹

With Melbourne's #MidsummaFestival in full swing and this weekend's #Pride march coming up on Sunday, I've written a short blog about how Pride may help to boost our mental health along with some tips for managing wellbeing both now and throughout the year.

Whilst cancer treatment relies on medical intervention, the emotional and psychological impacts of cancer remains a major concern for patients and their families. At Alfred Health we support patients process and manage these concerns. #psychooncology

A nice illustration of the role that talking therapy can play. Making sense of the chaos that often exists in our minds. #clinicalpsychology #psychotherapy #talkinghelps

Being new to BlueSky, another social media platform, it’s good to be reminded that it’s ok that not everyone is going to like you / me. 🤗

But let’s all be kind.
