How to stay optimistic even in tough times

[Action for Happiness]

Introducing our Optimistic October campaign

Hello Antonella
This month is all about how to keep moving forward, even in tough times. Life is full of challenges, but by being a realistic optimist we can find ways to stay hopeful, take small positive steps and help others do so too.
Our Optimistic October (https://www.actionforhappiness.org/october)  calendar is full of ideas to help you set meaningful goals and find new perspectives on challenges you're facing.

You can also use our app (https://www.actionforhappiness.org/app)  to receive the daily calendar actions and join a supportive community putting these into practice.

October 10th is World Mental Health Day

This year's theme is Mental Health in an Unequal World (https://wfmh.global/2021-world-mental-health-global-awareness-campaign-world-mental-health-day-theme/) , highlighting the inequalities that so many people are facing, whether due to their financial situation, health, ethnicity, sexual orientation or gender identity.

Inequalities have a big impact on our mental health, so let's work together to put things right. Find out more and get involved (https://www.who.int/campaigns/world-mental-health-day) .
