My Favorite Bit Of Information From The Week:
Kate Middleton has been a huge advocate for educating and empowering children to have better mental health. She puts mental and physical health on the same level of importance. I love this way of viewing things because when we all begin to see our mental well being as just another “check up” we help to remove the stigma on it in our culture. However you may feel about the royals, this is interesting stuff and how the UK is planning on handling mental health education in the school systems is fascinating.
Here is a bit on her plan to activate better mental health in the school system:https://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/princess-kate-launches-mental-health-program-schools-commitment/story?id=52544635
And here is a link to when she took over the Huffington Post for a day: https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/her-royal-highness-the-duchess-of-cambridge/lets-make-a-real-difference-for-young-children_b_9246336.html?ec_carp=1494915090270197043&guccounter=2
Lastly, but probably most importantly, If you are in the mood to watch adorable British children talk about mental health, you are in for a treat- this is also a fantastic video to share with the children in your lives:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFCLGIX6hBs
