What are you doing to look after your wellbeing today?
Regular movement is one of the easiest ways to boost your mood and reduce stress. For some, that might be spending time in the garden - like Amey, an administrator in our Talking Health team. For others, it could be getting out for a run, just like Emma, one of our counsellors in Taw.
Whatever you choose, it’s all about finding a type of movement that feels right for you.

Have you noticed a change in your mood or the desire to withdraw from social situations? Eve, one of our high-intensity therapists, explains why we encourage people to reach out to TALKWORKS early on, rather than waiting until things get really bad before seeking help.

World Sleep Day is the chance to reflect on how our sleep impacts us day-to-day. Is your sleep constantly disrupted? Do you find it hard to get to sleep when you switch off the light? Is your mood affected?
If you are impacted by poor or broken sleep, our therapists can work with you to help you to get a better night's sleep.
