Overseas

The principles behind Brain Smart® are not bound by geography. The brain works the same way everywhere. The need to understand it is universal.

Jamma Wellbeing has been pioneering co-production with global communities, working with partners overseas to adapt the Brain Smart® framework to different cultural contexts, languages and settings.

This is not a model exported wholesale from the UK. It is a process of genuine collaboration, where communities shape the content alongside us.

The goal is the same wherever we work: to give people knowledge about how the brain works, reduce the stigma around mental ill-health, and build the skills to grow wellbeing from within.

“We partnered with Jamma because we believe in Brain Smart® and we want to help develop it to be appropriate to our culture and language”

NEWS

Updates from across Jamma Wellbeing including new work, partnerships,
training opportunities and organisational news.

Why peer support works: the power of being understood by someone who has been there

Professional mental health support is valuable. But there is something that peer support offers that clinical services often cannot.

Emotions are not the enemy: why trying to get rid of difficult feelings does not work

We spend a lot of energy trying to avoid, suppress or eliminate difficult emotions. Anger, fear, sadness, anxiety.

Why talking about mental health at work is still so hard, and what actually helps

Most organisations now have a mental health policy. Many have trained mental health first aiders. And yet most employees still would not tell their manager if they were struggling. What is going wrong?

Why self-compassion is not self-indulgence: what the research actually says

Most of us are far harder on ourselves than we would ever be on a friend. We think this makes us more disciplined. The evidence suggests it does the opposite.

What is neuroplasticity and why does it matter for your wellbeing?

Your brain is not fixed. It changes throughout your life, shaped by your experiences, thoughts and habits. Understanding this is one of the most hopeful things you can learn.
