The theme for National Reconciliation Week is All In and it’s a call for all Australians to commit wholeheartedly to reconciliation every single day.

We come together to learn about our shared cultures and histories, acknowledging what still needs to be done to achieve a reconciled and united Australia, and exploring the ways that each of us can contribute to Australia’s ongoing reconciliation journey.

“All In makes clear that reconciliation is not a spectator sport, and that all of us must step away from the sidelines and take action to make change. All In is not about guilt or shame, but about the reciprocal responsibility of being Australian.”

Today is National Sorry Day.

A day to acknowledge and honour the strength, resilience and ongoing journeys of Stolen Generation survivors, their families and communities.

We also recognise the lasting impacts of forced child removal and the ways these continue to affect First Nations children, young people, families and communities today.

At headspace, we believe every First Nations young person has the right to access culturally safe, inclusive and healing-centred support.

If today brings up difficult feelings, support is available. Head to our website! 🖤💛❤️

If trauma is part of your story, you might feel like you’ve had to be strong in ways other people don’t always see. 💛

What is trauma?
A lasting response to a distressing experience that can impact how you feel, think and cope. It’s shaped by what happened, how you experienced it, and the impact it’s had on your life. There’s no “right” way to respond and everyone's experience is different.

How can it show up? 👀
💥 panic, anger or nightmares
🧊 numbness, disconnection or distrust
😔 shame, guilt or avoidance
😴 changes to sleep or physical health

What can healing look like? 🌱
🤝 connecting with people, culture, community or faith
🧘 grounding routines and self-care
🎨 movement or creative expression
🗣️ therapy

Setbacks are normal. Healing isn’t linear. But over time, it’s possible to feel stronger, calmer and more like yourself again. You are more than what happened to you. 💛

If you want to work through these feelings, headspace can help!

That fear of being “cringe” can quietly shape the choices we make. It can stop us from wearing what we like, joining in, or letting ourselves be excited about the things that matter to us.

Often, it comes from a fear of being judged, so we judge ourselves first. Noticing that feeling, separating your worth from other people’s opinions, and taking small steps to be yourself can help.

You don’t need to be fearless to show up. Being yourself might feel uncomfortable at times but it’s also how confidence and connection grow.💚
