PPS Healing

At PPS Healing believe good mental health and wellbeing is important for us to lead happy, healthy lives. It has a positive impact on our relationships and how we cope and engage with the world around us. Research shows that good mental health and wellbeing promotes our physical health, supports recovery from illness, and improves life expectancy. It also has a positive impact on better educational achievement, reduction in risky health behaviours, improved employment rates, and higher levels of social interaction and participation. Mental health and wellbeing is a determinant of and consequence of physical health and wellbeing, and is closely linked with physiological processes. The risk factors for poor physical and mental health and wellbeing often overlap, and the effect of social and environmental determinants on physical health can also have an influence on resilience. People with severe mental illness, for example, are at higher risk of obesity, asthma, diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cardiovascular disease. Also, many people with long-term physical health conditions experience poor mental health and wellbeing. These can lead to significantly poorer health outcomes and reduced quality of life. Many people suffer in silence and we believe everyone should be able to reach out or speak about what they are going through. We use events and workshops to bring people together and allow individuals to socialise to show strength and have courage to make life more enjoyable in the future.
