Lent 2024 - giving up my smartphone

MIND Hi I’m Amy & I’m giving up my smartphone for Lent 2024. In the modern world we live in, smartphones are at the forefront of absolutely everything we do. Everything we want, is at our fingertips. Now, don’t get me wrong, phones are pretty helpful in sticky situations. Phones can also impact our mental health. We live in a comparison culture where we’re always comparing ourselves to other people; ‘they have better this than me’, ‘They’ve got that, I don’t’, ‘they look like they have it all together’. Or adjusting photos so you look ‘attractive’ in the eyes of the world. Having all these tools at our fingertips, can be quite damaging to our mental health & they can become very addictive. Being someone who has struggled with mental health, and currently being on a journey for better mental health, I am raising money for all that Mind do in our communities and beyond! Visit their website for stats & more info but they are such an amazing charity, I couldn’t give up this opportunity. So, join me in making a difference by supporting a good cause! I'm raising money for Mind (NAMH) and any donation will help make an impact. Thank you in advance for your contribution to this cause which means so much to me.
