Festive wellbeing tips from SAMH media volunteers
The festive season isn't always jolly, so here's some of the SAMH media volunteers with their tips on looking after your wellbeing this winter.
We all have mental health
Wishing you a happy and healthy 2022
This January, make some time to check in with your mental health.
For many of us, the new year can lead to pressure to break old bad habits, or to make a fresh start; but reality often has other plans. And with the continued uncertainty of the pandemic, many will find this year harder than ever.
This January, take it easy on yourself and make some time to get out into the fresh air, reconnect with your loved ones, or indulge in a favourite hobby.
The wellbeing assessment tool can be a good way to take stock and keep track of your mental health.
