The Wellbeing Hour: 4 January 2021

Our Meditation facilitator Litsa presented our second show (and the first one of 2021!) on Monday 4 January at 9pm and introduced the theme of: “New Year, Know You” (a new take of the old adage “New Year, New You”) and the many ways in which you can get to know yourself better this coming year by trying out new things!

She also spoke to some of our instructors, Anna from Happy Head Yoga and Coaching and Jayne from Jayne’s Zumba & Fitness about the benefits of physical activity, from supporting nervous systems to healthy hearts.

You’ll also hear a conversation between craft expert Taryn and MFT clients Corinne and Paula on trying art even when you don’t think you’re crafty and unearthing your inner creativity.

You’ll also be treated to a beautiful song played on the treble recorder by MFT client Rebecca as well as a meditation and sound healing session from Litsa & Alysson from Ayiayoga.

Portrait of Megan, Co-Production Lead, MFT

Megan joined MFT in January 2025 and looks after the development of our strategic priority for MFT to live and breathe co-production. She also facilitates our Advisory Group, and champions those with lived experience of mental health challenges to improve the way mental health support is developed, reviewed, and delivered.

Megan first learnt about co-production as a Lived Experience Advisor with the Independent Mental Health Network based at Surrey Coalition of Disabled People, contributing her own lived experience to mental health projects in Surrey and North East Hampshire after graduating university.

She has since worked on a range of development projects for Surrey’s mental health and wellbeing support, immersing community engagement and lived experience into research and decision-making.
