What can affect our Mental Health?
Our mental health can change, just life our physical health. There are many different life events and experiences that can affect how we feel mentally. These can range from things such as the start or end of relationships, a bereavement, family difficulties, loss of a job, receiving good news or being worried about those we are close to.
Well-being Toolkit
The Well-being toolkit is designed as an information resource for you to dip into as needed and is divided up into different sections. There are many things we can do day to day to help maintain or build positive mental health. Our physical and mental health are closely connected so it is important to consider how we are looking after ourselves physically when we want to help our mental health.
Our lifestyle choices and physical health can have a massive effect on our mental health and emotional wellbeing. Whilst therapies and coping strategies are always helpful, they can be limited if our lifestyle habits are not particularly healthy. Making changes in sleep, diet and exercise can be instrumental in both improving our emotional wellbeing but also in preventing future mental ill health.
