Wellbeing

Wellbeing is defined by the Dictionary as “the state of being comfortable, healthy, or happy.”

However, wellbeing is a much wider notion than feeling happiness, it includes other things, such as how content people are with their life a whole, their sense of purpose, and how in control they feel.

Evidence suggests there are five steps we can all take to improve our mental wellbeing.

Five ways to mental wellbeing

Connect with people

Connect with the people around you

Keep moving

 Find an activity that you enjoy and make it a part of your life

Take Notice

Remember the simple things that make you happy 

Never stop Learning

Give to others

Give you time, your words and your presence

If you give them a try, you may feel happier, more positive and able to get the most from life.
