Sikhi

Good Thinking has worked with members of London’s Sikh community to create mental wellbeing resources that align with Sikh beliefs and teachings.

“Sing, listen and let your mind be filled with love. Your pain shall be sent far away and peace shall come to your home" Sr Guru Granth Sahib Ji, Ang 1

With the support of the Sikh Council, Basics of Sikhi, Sikh Your Mind, Journey of Compassion and Taraki, Good Thinking has produced a range of guides and videos to help members of London’s Sikh community boost their wellbeing and cope with losing a loved one.

Practising the five ways to good mental wellbeing, which are recommended by the NHS, can have a very positive impact on your mood and wellbeing. These are also things that are encouraged in the Sikh Way of Life.

Good Thinking’s Five ways to good mental wellbeing & Sikhi guide provides practical advice on boosting wellbeing through the lens of Sikh and is supported by quotes from sacred texts.
