Keep your mind healthy
Mental wellbeing is just as important as physical wellbeing, and maintaining both is an important part of staying, and feeling well.
Embracing the new normal
We all need to look after our mental health to help us live our best life during challenging times.
It has been suggested that there are five steps we can all take to improve our mental wellbeing:
- Connect with others
- Take regular physical activity
- Keep learning new skills
- Give to others
- Be mindful and aware of your own and others' feelings
Find out more about the 5 steps to mental wellbeing on the NHS website.
