Small Steps

Te Hiringa Hauora | Health Promotion Agency has a new website, Small Steps, featuring locally developed digital wellbeing tools. It is funded by the Minsitry of Health and developed in partnership with social enterprise Clearhead.

The initial six tools focus on positive thinking and mindfulness to manage stress or anxiety, and help when you’re feeling down. They are: deep breathing, active listening, mindful watching, identifying signals, reframing thoughts and balancing mood.

Small steps tools gives people the opportunity to access tools, resources, and information to support them to maintain or improve their wellbeing. They also provide information to help support friends and whānau. Social and mental health services may also find Small Steps tools beneficial when working with their clients.

The tools are free for all users – they are housed on a zero-rated website, which means you won’t use any data when you access this site, and you can continue to access the website if you run out of mobile data.
