Wellbeing Tips

It’s important to look after yourself so you can function better and feel happier – people around you may pick up on the changes too.

The wellbeing tips include ideas for feeling better in your body. This is because there’s a strong link between mind and body – when you feel better physically you’re likely to function and feel better psychologically.

‘We wouldn’t think twice about taking the car to the garage if it didn’t feel right, yet we expect ourselves to go on and on with hardly any caring input.’
