Being Asian Australian isn't always easy...

And being Asian Australian through COVID, has really made that clear.

YOU'RE NOT ALONE.

That's why we're bringing the Asian Australian community together during Mental Health Month so that we can connect, reflect and recover.

Kickstart the journey to a happier, healthier you by reflecting and journaling, every day in October.

BONUS: If you journal for all 30 days, we’ll give you your money back.

WHAT IS THE CHALLENGE?

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS:

  1. Purchase your challenge option (starting at $1 per day) before Oct 1st

  2. Log into the Shapes and Sounds Club group discussion

  3. Answer one journal prompt each day and engage with others' answers too

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT:

  • A vibrant group discussion where we talk all things Asian Australian
  • After 30 days of journaling, receive your money back in full*
  • If you miss a day (or seven), don't fret - there are weekly prizes for insightful responses!
  • There's a bonus option to join a live session to connect with likeminded peers.
Join the waitlist for the next round!

HOW WILL THIS IMPROVE MY MENTAL HEALTH?

1. Journaling is a simple way to improve our mood. 

There's a large body of research that shows that daily journaling can:

  • Reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms
  • Strengthen the immune system
  • Improve focus and memory
  • Improve sleep
  • Improve mood
  • And so much more!

2. Social connection is crucial for our wellbeing.

Human beings are social creatures and we need each other, especially so during this extended period of disconnection.

But it's rare to find spaces like  Shapes and Sounds, that are supportive, therapeutic and validate your experiences of being Asian Australian.

Find the social connection that was created just for you.

 

3. Creating healthy habits is what builds true change.

Often we only think about our mental health when things go wrong. But like our physical health, we can take care of our mental wellbeing on a daily basis.

These 30 days will form the foundation of a sustainable self-care practice that you can carry with you well beyond our month together!

HELP SOMEONE IN NEED.

It's no secret that the people who need mental health supports the most, often miss out due to being unable to pay for services.

This has been further exacerbated throughout COVID which has disproportionately affected the economic wellness of people of colour and in particular, women of colour.

You can sponsor someone to engage in the Shapes and Sounds 30-Day Journaling Challenge and to connect with a supportive, thriving community of Asian Australians.

TESTIMONIALS

KC

"The Shapes and Sounds Club has changed my views about myself, my family, identity while recognising how I view the world has been shaped by how I grew up. It's a beautifully complex thing that really affects your mental health in ways I didn't realise!

I've felt the community in S&S feels connected, supportive and diverse. It's unique and I'm so glad it exists!"

JAGESH

"The Shapes and Sounds Club has been an effective support for my mental health because it shares Asian/Australian experiences of mental health in a safe space with no judgement.

Coming from a South Asian background, I've found the community to be uplifting and full of knowledge and advice."

MAGGY

"Everything you were too scared to talk about in regards to being Asian Australian, is talked about at Shapes and Sounds."
