Mindfulness meditation is a form of focusing on the present moment. 
It poses many benefits to our well-being. It is easy to get caught up in our surroundings and stresses in our lives. Mindfulness meditation gives us a break from this, and time to focus on how we feel inside. 
Making time for this in our days can improve both our physical and mental well-being. 

This article provides tips and benefits of mindfulness meditation and how you can implement it into your daily routine.

It is June, which marks pride month 2021. Here at Right Resolution we support the LGBTQ+ community. We want to raise awareness of the discrimination and adversity faced by this community. 
Statistics show that 1 in 5 people have experienced discrimination towards their sexual orientation or gender identity during the past 12 months. 2 in 5 transgender individuals have experienced hate crime in the past 12 months. 4 in 5 anti- LGBTQ+ hate crimes are unreported (Stonewall.org,2021). 

We must be aware of hate crime towards the LGBTQ+ community and report this to prevent it from occurring again. 

We share the love for every diverse individual, we may all be different, but we can accept our differences and be kind. 

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH 2021!!!!

What will you guys be doing to celebrate?

Period poverty is very real. ALL females should be able to access period necessities. We must raise awareness of period poverty to promote change. 

At Right Resolution, we are very passionate about this topic and have launched The Jeevan Project: providing free sanitary wear to care leavers. Head over to our social media for more information. 

If you feel you suffer from period poverty please do not feel ashamed to reach out for support. Periods are natural and we must fight the stigma. WE SUPPORT YOU.
