The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is designed to provide support and funding to people with disabilities in Australia. There are three types of NDIS funding available: self-managed, plan-managed, and agency-managed.
Self-managed funding means that the person with a disability or their family members are responsible for managing their own NDIS funds. This gives them greater control over the support and services they receive, as they can choose which providers to use and how their funding is spent. However, it can also be more time-consuming and complex to manage. Plan-managed funding involves using a registered plan manager to manage the NDIS funds on behalf of the person with a disability. This type of funding comprises the largest percentage of participants on the scheme. The plan manager takes care of all the financial transactions and ensures that the service providers are paid on time. Good plan managers also have great local knowledge of supports and the NDIS legislation. This gives participants more flexibility and choice in their service providers, while also reducing the administrative burden. In recent years, there has been a significant shift towards

Self-care is an essential aspect of overall wellness, especially for those who participate in the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). It includes various activities and routines that aim to reduce physical and mental tension. According to the World Health Organisation, self-care is crucial enough to dedicate a whole month to it, culminating in International Self-Care Day on July 24th. Prioritising self-care means taking an active role in your own health, and the benefits extend beyond stress relief and mood improvement to disease prevention and longevity.
It is essential to note that some of the most effective ways to embody self-care are intentional and proactive. Here are four inspirations for unwinding this month and participating in a worldwide movement of health-conscious enjoyment. 1. Spend time outdoors Reconnecting with nature is a profound experience that touches on so many different aspects of overall wellness. Spending time outdoors comes with positive results such as improved heart health, soothed muscle tension, and reduction in levels of cortisol (often called the “stress hormone”). Outdoor time could mean anything from exploring a new walk in a lakeside park or getting a vigorous workout with Kayak-Cardio. 2. Pick up a mindful hobby Engaging in any activity that pulls your focus from the internal toward something external can be a healthy pursuit of mindfulness. For example, joining a group who do free tai chi in the park or practicing yoga and meditation weekly. Networking in the disAbility and National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) field can benefit you in various ways. Firstly, investing time in networking can help you build relationships and connections with other professionals in the industry. This can lead to potential collaborations and referrals, which can help grow your business.
Secondly, networking can also help with ethical marketing. By building relationships with other professionals, participants, carers, stakeholders and peak bodies you can gain insights into NDIS participant's needs and pain points. This allows you to tailor your approach to better meet their needs. This type of marketing is more ethical as it focuses on building trust and providing value rather than simply pushing a product or service. Happy new year! How has your first month of 2023 been? This January I've been busy birthing two new things! Firstly, the launch of a new 12 week one on one Signature Whole Warrior Workshop that I've been incubating for over a year, and secondly an online shop on my website!
One of the 12 modules in my new Whole Warrior Workshop is a Vision Board session. Vision boarding is an incredibly powerful tool for manifestation and goal setting. It can help you to focus on your goals and dreams, and it can also help you to visualise the steps you need to take to make them a reality. Benefits of vision boarding include: |
