Knitting to refill my mental health bucket with Dr Kaman Hansford
Description
Dr Kaman Hansford is a GP who joined us on one of our retreats for healthcare professionals. She has lived experience of using mental health services and knitting is now a crucial part of her wellbeing plan.
Kaman speaks about feeling that she can use knitting as an early warning sign if her mental health is deteriorating, and also that it is one of the tools she uses daily to access some calm.
I also really valued Kaman's perspective on using knitting as a way of becoming more self-compassionate.
Kaman is not on social media, so if you have any comments on this episode I am very happy to pass them on!
