Happy Monday everyone!
Below is a long-overdue part complete bibliography of things I have read and found useful in the mental health department over the last 12 months.
I have grouped resources together under the headings of self-help, bedtime reading, and dog-related reading; I will explain more in my final blog update this week. It's not complete by any stretch, I can't locate some things but I am sure it will help those looking for some inspiration; happy reading!
