Judgement Free

Promote a culture of acceptance and empathy, where individuals feel safe to express themselves authentically without fear of criticism or judgement. Refrain from making assumptions or passing judgement on others based on their beliefs, choices, or experiences.

Open Mindedness

Emphasise the importance of being receptive to new ideas, perspectives, and experiences, without prejudice or bias. Approach situations with curiosity and a willingness to consider alternative viewpoints.

Don’t Assume, Always Ask.

Value clear communication and avoid making assumptions about others. Encourage individuals to seek clarification and understanding through asking the question rather than relying on assumptions, which can lead to misunderstandings or conflicts.

Embrace Diversity & Inclusion

Prioritise self-care and wellbeing as essential components of mental fitness, encouraging individuals to prioritise their well-being through practices such as mindfulness, self-compassion, and healthy lifestyle choices.

Foster Appropriate & Safe Connections
