Anxiety makes everything feel urgent. Grounding brings your focus back to the present to calm your nervous system. Whether it’s stepping on stage, a hard conversation or the Sunday night scaries, these small tips can really help.
#MentalHealthAwarenessWeek#TakeActionTipsAndTools
During busy periods, it’s easy for our brains to stay stuck in “work mode”. Days off aren't just about rest (though, that is good too). It's about resetting your mind, your environment and feeling present, curious or calm.
#MentalHealthAwarenessWeek#TakeActionTipsandTools
Today's #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek#TakeActionTipsandTools looks at what you can be doing in your workplace to improve mental wellbeing. The more normalised these small things become, the safer and healthier our industry will be.
Sometimes even well-meaning words can land very differently when someone's stuggling. If you're unsure:
Just listen.
Allow them space to talk.
Let them know they've been heard.
Validate their feelings.
Let them know your there.💛
#MentalHealthAwarenessWeek#TakeActionTipsAndTools
We don't always remember the words, but we do remember the feeling it gave us. Letting someone know you're willing to listen could be the most important thing you do for them 💛
