Get involved in #MindYourSelfie Day

#MindYourSelfie Day is back again this Tuesday, March 26th, and this year the campaign is calling on you - the public, schools, the media and celebrities across the country - to get involved by sharing on social media what you do to “mind your selfie” in a bid to raise awareness of, and encourage conversation about, positive mental health.


 


 

The new film has been uniquely developed as a teaching aid to address how young people can look after their wellbeing, or ‘mind their selfie’, in the midst of everyday challenges.  It features themes inspired by a selection of short-films produced by students across Ireland for the Walk in My Shoes’ annual ‘Frame of Mind’ competition. The #MindYourSelfie film features tips from St Patrick’s CEO and Clinical Psychologist Paul Gilligan and is accompanied by a handy ‘Teacher’s Guide’ developed by experts at St Patrick’s Mental Health Services.


 

RTE Presenter and WIMS Ambassador, Bláthnaid Treacy, launched the 2019 #MindYourSelfie campaign with the help of furry friend and Instagram star, Ricky the dog.
