Mental Health + Well-Being - September 1st to 30th đ§ đ¸
1 in 4 New Zealand adults will suffer from a mental disorder or distress at some point in their lives. When they do, letâs make sure they donât have to go it alone. To create safer, more caring communities we need to not only look after ourselves but those around us as well.
For the month of September, we want to use our voice to raise awareness for mental health and well-being. Perhaps consider sharing a cuppa with someone you know who could use the support or challenge your family and friends to unplug from social media for the entire month to improve their well-being. If you or someone you know is going through a rough patch, donât forget you can call or text 1737 anytime for FREE support from a trained counsellor.
This month also coincides with World Suicide Prevention Day (September 10th) followed by Mental Health Awareness Week (21 - 27 September).
However you choose to take part, make sure to tag us in your posts + use the following hashtag so we can see how youâre cultivating better mental health for yourself or in your community this month:

Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctorâs appointment online?
Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctorâs appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.
For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.
Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.

Discipleship and Leadership within our Community of Today's Society
TÄnÄ koe (Hi) Neighbours,
I trust that this finds you well.
I would like to share a collection of articles, which I have written that engage with Christian discipleship and our calling to live faithfully before the true Triune God. Â These are offered simply as invitations to prayerful consideration, with the hope that they may encourage deeper attentiveness to Christâs righteousness and a renewed commitment to showing compassion, sympathy, and empathy toward others, particularly those who have experienced seasons of hardship.
I would like to encourage you to explore the articles at the links below:

For any of you that is unfamiliar with Substack, it is a free platform that allows Christians to read and share faith-based writing, encourage one another in spiritual formation, and bear faithful witness through words shaped by grace and humility.
On a final note, here is a link to my sisterâs medical research regarding people with neurodivergence: www.liebertpub.com....
Let us, as part of the Body of Christ and as a local community, seek to grow as an inter-generational and generationally diverse community, to repent of past actions that have caused hurt to others, and to let go of what divides us, so that we may live together in harmony and unity.
Thank - you.
Atua (God) Bless.
