The 5 Ways to Wellbeing can lead to improved mental health
Start simple, find physical activities that you enjoy. Being active keeps your body and your mind working well.
Connect with those around you. Socialising with people and developing strong relationships contributes to good health and wellbeing.
Helping others can boost happiness and life satisfaction. Anything from giving a smile to volunteering.
Set yourself a new challenge. Learn something new or rediscover an old interest.
Take notice of your thoughts and feelings, use your five senses to become mindful of what’s around you.
