🗣It's World Mental Health Day on the 10th October🗣
It's almost impossible to avoid the catastrophes and emergencies happening around the world currently, we're fed a steady stream through almost any media we access. While we may not be (in Cheshire, UK) in the midst of the war-zones or able to relate to some of the current struggles we see on our social media pages or news, but the constant exposure can lead to many feelings for example: overwhelm or helplessness and can affect our mental health.
We are sending out well-being toolkits to our staff to ensure they are equipped and have the support available should they or anyone they work with need it.
Good mental health isn't always achieved with bubble baths or a cup of tea, but sometimes through speaking to a professional to get things off our chests or through creating a wellness action plan for ourselves and following it.
Some ideas around keeping maintaining good mental health are well known, getting outside in the fresh air, spending time with loved ones and pets, visiting places that bring you pleasure i.e the aquarium, eating well where possible and allowing yourself treats.
