HEALTHY MIND HEALTH YOU
**REPORT FROM MONEYGLASS
What a fantastic turn out of people of all ages for our Healthy Mind Healthy You Event tonight. Thank you to everyone in attendance and a massive thanks to the 3 speakers for their inspirational words.
Billy Dixon taught us about our behaviour influencing our attitude, you have to have a positive attitude and portray yourself in such a way. Good posture, the way you walk and talk and a smile are ways to show you have confidence in yourself.
Roisin Armstrong spoke about the need to fuel our body just like a car; you wouldn't expect a car to run on lawnmower fuel so why do we expect our bodies to run on rubbish food. Roisins book "Porridge is an Aphrodisiac" has recipes which are quick and easy to make for anyone with a busy lifestyle. Roisins book can be purchased in Bannside and Diamond Pharmacies.
Oisin McConville stunned the room with his story, what this man has come through is unbelievable, gambling was part of his life for 16 years but for Oisin the loneliness and isolation his addiction left him with are problems no young boy should have to deal with. He encouraged anyone to reach out for help with any problems they might be facing; your parents, a friend, a work colleague. Have the courage to reach out for help!
Thank you to the local groups for coming along and having their stalls, you can become involved in any of these groups through their members. Thanks also to our own Health and Wellbeing Team for organising this event, remember if you wish to become involved in any small way in this group you can ask Sharon 07761840045 or any of the committee members for information on what we do
