If scrolling is starting to feel like a way to cope, escape, or get through the day, you are not alone.

Technology can help us stay connected, but sometimes what we really need is human support.

Technology is not the problem. How we use it matters.

It can help us stay connected and supported, but too much screen time can also affect sleep, focus, mood and emotional wellbeing.

A gentle reminder: you are allowed to set boundaries with your phone.

Choose balance. Choose rest. Choose you.

Need support? ARISE Society offers counselling and recovery support, including telehealth.

Scrolling in bed at midnight? You're not alone. 🌙

Your phone keeps your brain switched 'on' when it's trying to wind down. The bright screen and the never-ending feed tell your body it's not time to rest yet.

Try this tonight:
📵 Put your phone across the room, not on the pillow
⏰ Set a 'last scroll' alarm 30 minutes before bed
📖 Swap the feed for a book or a few slow breaths

Small change, better sleep. Save this as a reminder for tonight. 💚

A little reminder for someone who needs it today. 💚

""You don't have to be positive all the time. It's okay to just get through the day, and that's enough.""

Tag someone who could use this today. 👇

Feeling anxious right now? Do this with me. 🧘

The 5-4-3-2-1 technique brings you back to the present in under a minute. Watch, then try it the next time your mind races.

Name: 5 things you can see, 4 you can touch, 3 you can hear, 2 you can smell, 1 you can taste.

Save it. Share it with someone who needs it today. 💚

Mondays can ambush you. Before you touch the to-do list, try these 3 small things. 🌱

1. Bank a 5-minute win first. Make the bed, one email, a glass of water. Momentum beats
motivation.
2. Get outside for 10 minutes before the day swallows you. Even a bit of Queensland sun
resets your head.
3. Text one person you trust. “Hey” counts.
You don’t have to fix everything today. Small steps still count.
Which one are you starting with?

Save this for next Monday and if the heavy weeks keep stacking up, ARISE is here.

Let's make rest a plan, not an afterthought. 🌤️

Fill in the blank:

""This weekend, I'm going to rest by ______.""

No wrong answers. Could be a nap, a walk, a coffee in the sun, or doing absolutely nothing. Drop yours below, you might give someone else a great idea. 👇

Reaching out doesn't mean something is 'wrong' with you. Sometimes these are just signs you deserve some support. 💚

1. You feel flat or overwhelmed most days.
2. Sleep or appetite has changed.
3. You're pulling away from people.
4. Small things feel harder than they used to.
5. You've been carrying it alone for a while.

If a few of these feel familiar, talking to someone can really help. ARISE offers counselling in person and by telehealth across Queensland. Reach out or refer someone 👉 arisesociety.com.au/referral

Can't switch your mind off? Try this before bed. 🌙

It's called 4-7-8 breathing:

Breathe IN through your nose for 4 seconds.
HOLD for 7 seconds.
Breathe OUT slowly through your mouth for 8 seconds.

Repeat 3 to 4 times. It slows your heart rate and tells your body it's safe to rest. Save this for tonight. (If holding your breath feels uncomfortable, skip the hold and just make the exhale longer than the inhale that works too.)

Save this for tonight.

Worried about someone but don't know what to say?

You don't need all the answers. Some of the most powerful things you can do are simple:

✅ Listen without judgement
✅ Check in regularly
✅ Help them connect with support

That last step is where we come in. ARISE Society offers person-centred NDIS support right across South-East Queensland, and referring someone takes just a few minutes 👉 arisesociety.com.au/referral

Wishing you a calm, restful Sunday.
