Dear Mind, Remember to make time for you

Taking some ‘me time’ is important. And it also helps strengthen your mental wellbeing.

Your mental wellbeing is the unique way that you handle your emotions, respond to stress and also your general outlook on life. Having a healthy sense of mental wellbeing has many benefits. It lifts your mood, promotes resilience in difficult situations and helps you get the most out of life. It doesn’t matter who you are, where you live or how you’re feeling – taking a few moments for yourself each day will help you be a happier and more resilient you.

You deserve the best possible YOU!

How can I improve my mental wellbeing?

Being active for 30 minutes each day improves your physical health. The same goes for your mental health. By taking just a few minutes to focus on mental wellbeing activities each day, you’ll see big improvements.

It only takes a few small actions, practised every day, to find a happier you.

 

My wellbeing ideas:

  1. Go for a walk outside

  2. Work in the garden

  3. Call a friend

  4. Listen to a new podcast

Some people love yoga, others would rather be at a BBQ with friends. The important thing is that both activities are great ways to make time for you. Because everyone is different, the way you choose to practise mental wellbeing will be different too.

Does this mean I need to meditate?
