Wellbeing is the overall state of your physical, mental and emotional health. It can be influenced by many areas of everyday life, including sleep, stress, relationships, work, exercise, diet and how you feel about yourself.
Small, consistent changes can help support mental wellbeing. These may include getting enough sleep, staying physically active, eating well, maintaining social connections, managing stress and making time for activities you enjoy.
Signs can vary from person to person but may include persistent tiredness, difficulty sleeping, feeling overwhelmed, irritability, low mood, problems concentrating or withdrawing from activities and people you normally enjoy.
Identifying what is causing your stress is a useful first step. Regular exercise, relaxation techniques, good sleep habits, setting realistic boundaries and talking to someone you trust can all help you manage everyday stress.
A healthy work-life balance can provide time to rest, maintain relationships and enjoy interests outside work. Creating boundaries between work and personal time may also help reduce prolonged stress and the risk of burnout.
