S4 E14 It's Contagious - for World Kindness Day

Season 4 of the Grow Your Mind Podcast includes some bite-sized morsels of gold. These mini episodes are under 5 minutes during which two kids unpack a dilemma or the ethics of an idea. This bite-size, the kids are getting their best spooky voices on to talk about ghosting. Unlike the pretend monsters, vampires and ghosts of Halloween - the ghosting the kids are talking about is real. Ghosting is a term used to describe a situation whereby one friend ignores another completely, almost as though they no longer exist. It is confusing and unkind but it happens perhaps for reasons that aren’t always terrible. The kids share the message that even though it is hard to have a conversation with someone that might hurt their feelings, clear is kind.

S4 - SONG 3 - We All Have It

This episode the kids share something we humans all share in common. And it’s not a reluctance to be wrong, nits or bad breath in the morning! 

We’ll give you a hint….Taylor Swift has it - and it’s not an extremely good singing voice. Can you guess what it is? 

It’s mental health. And you can think of it like a continuum. When our mental health is poor it can feel like being in a dark room with a torch light pointed at a lonely chair and nothing else. But when our mental health is fantastic, it’s like all the lights are switched on and you can see all your friends and family have been there all along. 

In this episode the kids interview the wise and articulate Annie Kershaw from R U OK? R U OK? is a public health promotion charity that encourages people to stay connected and have conversations that can help others through difficult times. 

Annie shares what to do if a friend is not okay and she reminds us all that every day is an opportunity to ask someone this simple but powerful question.

Plus we have a NEW song and a hilarious story about a toxically positive snail!

S4 E12 We All Have It - for Mental Health Month

Season 4 of the Grow Your Mind Podcast includes some bite-sized morsels of gold. These mini episodes are under 5 minutes during which two kids unpack a dilemma or the ethics of an idea. And in this episode the kids are tackling how to get out of a trap. And for all those “Alone” or Bear Grylls enthusiasts, we’re sorry to report this trap isn’t a physical one. Instead it’s a mind trap - the if and then trap. It is however just as tricky to get out of as quicksand or a narrow cave! But luckily, we have some suggestions. Need a hint? Well this bite-size was created for World Gratitude Day on September 21, 2023.

This bite-size is landing on the same day as Australia’s National Day of Action against Bullying and Violence (NDA). This year’s theme is 'Growing Connections'.

To get skilled up in these areas we recommend listening to these Grow Your Mind podcast episodes:

More Dangerous than smoking
Keep it but free

S4 E10 Your Future Self - For National Day of Action Against Bullying & Violence

Coming first in a race, topping your grade, being the main part in the play, making it into a selective class…..these are all fantastic things, but isn’t it equally fantastic to just be participating? Or is that a nonsensical idea that sounds good but is completely unrealistic? If we aren’t okay with being average, is that somehow putting pressure on all of us and perhaps our mental health too? What if we let go of being the best and celebrate being average and giving things a go? What would that look and feel like?

S4 E9 Good Enough

Season 4 of the Grow Your Mind Podcast includes some bite-sized morsels of gold. These mini episodes are under 5 minutes during which two kids unpack a dilemma or the ethics of an idea. This bite-size, the kids are talking about friendships and how they can sometimes be unhealthy. ‘The Recipe’ is the kid’s solution to maintaining respectful relationships. Together they come up with a list of ingredients for a healthy, feel-good friendship.

Guess what? Recent research by the University of Queensland found that women who have quality relationships in their 40s and 50s are less likely to develop multiple chronic conditions in older age. And in 2010, a meta-analysis by Holt Lunstad found that people with well established social connections had lower rates of heart disease, lower blood pressure, less abnormal inflammatory responses to stress, and lower rates of dementia. So let’s teach our kids how to have, keep and nurture healthy friendships.
