A Collaborative Approach Towards Mental Wellbeing for Everyone - Amanda Jones
IPH, Open, Conference, Belfast, Northern, Ireland, Dublin, Titanic, October, 2014, Health Public
According to the World Health Organization, mental health is defined as “a state of well-being in which every individual realizes his or her own potential, can cope with the normal stress of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to her or his community.”
Mental health refers to the maintenance of successful mental activity.
This includes maintaining productive daily activities and maintaining fulfilling relationships with others.
It also includes maintaining the abilities to adapt to change and to
cope with stresses.
Worth-it Projects Wellbeing Event PresentationElla Cooper
Presentations from Guest Speakers Dr Christian van Nieuwerburgh and Dr Mike McHugh. Including material from Worth-it Projects Managing Director Liz Robson and Director Maddy Stretton about the Worth-it projects and how the work they do with young people is invaluable, impactful and lasting. They share the integrated approach they have developed to support and improve the mental wellbeing of young people.
Men and women feel differently about the trials and tribulations in their life. These feelings manifest themselves into pyschosocial disorders such as drinking and suicides for men while women tend to cope better through social interaction. So how can men find ways to avoid the stigma and seek the help and support they need to work and live productive lives?

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

interferes with an individual’s cognitive, social and
emotional abilities including both ‘mental health problems’
and ‘mental illnesses’.
• Mental health problems: a disruption to our usual level
of social and emotional wellbeing
• Mental illness: a clinically diagnosable medical condition
such as anxiety or depression.
8. Mental illness in adults
• Each year in the Australia adult population:
– 20% of people will experience a mental illness
– 14% will experience an anxiety disorder
– 6% will experience depression

Acknowledgement of Country
I would like to start by acknowledging that we are meeting on the land of the Awabakal people who are the traditional custodians of this land. I would like to pay respect to the elders past and present and extend that respect to other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people present.
According to the World Health Organisation “There is no health without mental health” Mental health is therefore an essential element of our overall health. It is also more than just the absence of mental illness.
The World Health Organisation define mental health as a state of well-being in which the individual realizes his or her own abilities, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to his or her community.
So Mental Health relates to positive capacity and our ability to manage our behaviour, thoughts and emotions, we will look at this further on the next slide. An alternative term for ‘mental health’ is Social and Emotional Wellbeing and this is a term that is generally preferred by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds…. So mental health refers to a person’s psychological, social and emotional wellbeing. It is a positive capacity that makes up our overall wellbeing.
A person’s mental health is not always at optimal levels and can fluctuate over time depending on the influence on what’s happening in our lives and by the risk and protective factors around us. It is important to note that mental health does not equal mental ill-health…. We will talk about mental ill-health shortly… it refers to the spectrum of problems that interfere with an individual’s cognitive, social and emotional abilities including both ‘mental health problems’ and ‘mental illnesses’.
It’s also important to note that mental health does not equal happiness, it doesn’t mean you are happy all the time. A mentally healthy person will experience a range of emotions such are fear, anger, sadness, joy, disgust and surprise.
There is a lot of misuse and incorrect representations of mental health (in the media, the general public AND also among professionals).
The situation is also complicated by the fact there is a range of language used in this space and alternative definitions of mental health. For example an in-patient ward is sometimes referred to as the mental health unit – but the people are actually there for treatment of mental ill-health.
So what does mental health look like? Mental health enables:
Our capacity for positive personal development: emotionally, intellectually and creatively;
Our capacity to form and maintain positive and respectful relationships;
The ability to identify and manage one’s own emotions and understand the feelings of others;
Our skills in communication that include assertiveness, empathy and negotiation;
Our ability to solve problems, make informed decisions and accept responsibility for actions; and
The capacity to set realistic but rewarding goals and to actively work toward these.
Or
It is our ability to manage thoughts, feelings and behaviour so that we can:
Experience satisfaction and happiness in our life;
Cope with stress and sadness;
Achieve our goals and potential; and
Maintain positive connections with others.
Mental health and wellbeing has been linked to a range of positive outcomes in other areas of life and human activity, such as:

Mental ill-health refers to the spectrum of problems that interfere with an individual’s cognitive, social and emotional abilities including both ‘mental health problems’ and ‘mental illnesses’.
Mental illnesses are clinically diagnosable medical conditions such as anxiety, depression, psychosis, eating disorders, and bipolar disorder. Clinicians use the set criteria in the DSM – Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders to work out if someone has a mental illness.
People may also experience mental health problems which indicate a disruption to our usual level of social and emotional wellbeing. They could result from natural responses to events and stressors in our lives. Often they will resolve over time or when the situation changes. However if they persist or increase in severity they may develop into a mental illness.
Like physical health, the level or quality of our mental health and wellbeing can change over time, depending on what is happening in our lives.
Now let’s look at mental illness. So in Australia each year:
20% or 1 in 5 people will experience a mental illness
Depression and anxiety are the most common forms of mental illness and each year:
14% of people experience an anxiety disorder
6% experience depression
Other types include substance abuse disorders, psychotic illnesses such as schizophrenia, personality disorders
Many people have more than one diagnosis so they may have an anxiety disorder and depressive disorder for example.
And over the lifetime almost half of the population or 1 in 2 people will experience a mental illness. So lifetime prevalence is 45%.

So mental illness isn’t uncommon. You may find people are not as open about talking about experiencing mental illness / most people are pretty open about physical illness but there is stigma around mental illness. But mental illness is just like physical illness, it is a medical condition. Organisations like HIMH and others are working together to reduce stigma and increase people’s awareness, acceptance and ability to respond to others experiencing mental illness. and things are starting to improve which is great but we still have a way to go. We will touch on this later when we will talk about help seeking.
National Child & Youth Mental Health Survey, released 2015
- 6,300 parents (child aged 4-17)
- 3,000 young people > 11 yrs – New element to this study asking young people themselves to complete the survey on their own. Often a young person’s view on their own mental health is different to their parents view on their child’s mental health.
Previous survey 2000 (Sawyer et al.)
In terms of the age of onset, many mental illnesses have their first onset during adolescence. Approximately 50% of mental disorders occur prior to 14 years, and 75% of mental disorders occur by 24 years.
This means that for the majority of people who will experience a mental illness it will start to occur in their school years and the time in which they are in classrooms.
Conservative estimates as many young people choose not to say.
87% with severe disorders are getting help.
Schools provided services to 40% of young people with mental disorders.
Help seeking is a skill which we can improve and learn to do more of
Being able to ask for help is a strength!
So being able to identify when we need help and then being able to ask or seek out that help is valuable skill. Often things get worse because people don’t seek help, become isolated less able to cope and so on.
Sometimes people may be reluctant to seek help because of stigma. Remember we spoke about mental health being just like physical health so if someone broke their leg they would seek medical assistance. If you think of mental ill-health as being when our ‘mind is not well’ if someone is experiencing symptoms of mental ill-health we can encourage them to take the same approach and attitude of kindness we show ourselves with our broken leg and get help.
