Cultivating wellbeing on farm

According to Mental Health Australia, 1 in 5 Australians are affected by mental illness, yet many don’t seek help because of stigma. And that’s what this episode is all about. We’ll hear from a farmer who’s grappled with the dark side of mental health and we’ll talk to experts and professionals about how to keep it in check. Because mental health and well-being is not just a state of mind it’s a skill. Something we can all practice. In this episode we hear from Dr. Rachel Clements, Centre for Corporate Health - https://cfch.com.au/ Michael Gooden, farmer - https://www.oldmancreek.com.au/ Katherine Newton, CEO RUOK - https://www.ruok.org.au/ Pip Job, DPI Business and Social Resilience Program coordinator - http://tiny.cc/PipJob Other links to things covered in this episode Rural resilience program - https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/about-us/rural-support/rural-resilience-program Michael Gooden’s story online - https://mphn.org.au/story/michael Credits This podcast has been produced by the Grow Love Project with support from Greater Sydney Local Land Services, through funding from the Australian Government's National Landcare Program.
