August is Happiness Month - Let’s Boost Our Moods Together!

At Pendennis Community Centre, we believe that happiness isn't just a destination, it's made up of small moments that brighten our days and bring us closer together. This August, we’re celebrating Happiness Month by sharing simple, joyful ideas that can help boost your mood and spread positivity throughout our community.

Whether you’re popping into the centre or following us on Facebook, we’ve got something for everyone to enjoy. Here’s what you can look forward to all month long:

😊 Mood-Boosting Tips to Brighten Your Day

Each week, we’ll be posting simple, research-backed ways to lift your spirits. From smiling on purpose (yes, it really works!) to writing down things you're grateful for, these small actions can have a big impact on your well-being.

Why not start your own Happiness Jar at home and jot down a joyful moment each day?

🧡 Kindness Bingo – Feel Good by Doing Good

Acts of kindness are proven mood boosters, for both the giver and receiver. Take part in our Pendennis Kindness Bingo challenge by completing simple tasks like complimenting a friend, helping a neighbour, or picking up litter.

It’s a fun and rewarding way to spread good vibes, and we’d love to hear your stories!

💃 Move Your Mood

Movement is a natural mood-lifter! We’ll be encouraging you to take regular dance breaks, go for a walk, or try a 60-second stretch. Share your favourite happy songs with us on Facebook as we build the ultimate Pendennis Happiness Playlist together.

🧘‍♀️ Mindful Moments

Sometimes, the best way to boost your mood is to slow down. We’ll be sharing short breathing exercises and relaxation tips to help you find moments of calm amidst the busyness. Even just a few mindful minutes a day can make a real difference to your mental wellbeing.

😂 Laughter Corner

Who doesn’t love a good laugh? We’ll post light-hearted jokes to keep things playful. Got a clean, feel-good joke of your own? Share it in the comments and help us keep the giggles going!

📷 Feel-Good Fridays - Share Your Joy

Every Friday we’ll invite you to reflect on something positive from your week. Whether it’s a friendly chat, a great cup of tea, or a walk in the sun - no joy is too small. Join the conversation on our Facebook page and let’s create a ripple effect of happiness.
