A wellbeing toolkit can help you look after your mental health on a daily basis. Some of the things that you should include in your wellbeing toolkit are:
- Remember you are only human and sometimes bad things happen
- Sometimes our brain doesn’t know what is real and what isn’t so when we are getting stressed about thoughts, our brain can think that is what is actually happening. So try to remind yourself it isn’t happening.
- Try to swap negative thoughts for positive – make it into a new habit
- Eat well, exercise well and sleep well
- Set goals for yourself, some outside of your comfort zone to try and push yourself that little bit further
- Remember to take a minute to breathe
- If you are an employer, put in a wellness Action Plan at work. To see how your staff feel about their mental health and what can be done to improve it.
