This manual brings together a collection of resources recommended by professionals supporting taiohi | young people to use when providing brief intervention.

Emotional regulation resources can help taiohi to cope with triggers or difficult situations that can present at any time in any place and are particularly helpful for taiohi who experience intense feelings of anger, stress, worry, or excitement.

The resources in this section support taiohi to self-manage mild to moderate mental health and substance use challenges. They can be applied to a range of concerns including anxious feelings, low mood, stress, and self-harm.

The resources in this section from the Brief intervention manual provide ideas and strategies for taiohi to balance their daily life to include eating and sleeping well and keeping active. The emphasis is on taiohi learning what wellbeing means to them.

One of the best ways to prepare for change is to set goals. The goal setting and support planning section resources of the brief intervention manual provide an opportunity for support people to encourage taiohi to recognise their strengths, as well as warning signs that indicate they need to take action to self-manage their emotions.
