About Me and BMNM

About Me

     Hello, my name is Emma; I am the one that writes for this blog. The views or comments made in this blog are my own and do not represent any institutions, groups, or societies that I belong to.

     Currently, I am studying for BSc (Hons) degree in Psychology with Counselling, after which I aim to pursue a career in counselling or work within mental health services. 


About BMNM (Be Mindful, Not Mindless)

     When I first started Be Mindful, Not Mindless I gave a brief description of what it is about. However, I think recreating the bio here is better, and more accessible.

Be Mindful, Not Mindless is a blog that will concern all things involved with mental health - from filling in the facts, to commenting on related news stories etc. etc.   
  
     Just like physical health we all have mental health; it can be good and it can be bad. Mental health, and it's awareness, has always been something very close and important to me, and it is for many others as well. 1 in 4 people will experience mental health problems, whether it'd be themselves or someone they know. For something that affects all of us it still appears to be one of the biggest taboos in our society still. I hope to play some part in ending this, and I hope you will too.
The aim of my blog is to help raise awareness, hopefully educate others about mental health, and most importantly break down the wall of stigma.
