This summer in Toronto was all about prioritizing mental health—spending time outdoors, connecting with nature, and finding balance in a fast-paced world. As we transition into the colder months, I’m reflecting on how to maintain this sense of well-being. Winter can be challenging for mental health, both personally and professionally, and it’s essential to have a strategy. Just as corporate companies often cultivate a vibrant summer culture to drive success, it’s time to think about what wellness practices will keep us thriving through the winter. What are you planning for your employees to help them stay engaged, productive, and mentally healthy as the seasons change? https://lnkd.in/eHy9Tp5u #CorporateWellness #MentalHealthMatters #WinterWellness #EmployeeEngagement #WorkplaceCulture #WellbeingAtWork #Leadership #WellnessInTheWorkplace #WinterStrategy

Note to Self: Time to Turn well-meaning words into real wellbeing action I’ve worked in bidding for over 20 years, it’s a heady mix of never-ending deadlines and the relentless pursuit of new and better ways of doing things to gain a competitive edge. It’s addictive and rewarding seeing ideas come to life that make a lasting impact beyond improving the bottom line. Recently, I’ve noticed a positive shift in tender questions, urging bidders to embrace wellbeing in their proposals. But here’s the irony and a confession: while I help clients enhance their team’s wellbeing, I sometimes let my own slip through the cracks. It’s a challenge in the fast-paced world of bidding, and I’m actively working to change that. So, on world mental health day, although I’m delivering a full day workshop I’m taking a moment to reflect on what truly brings me joy and balance amidst the bidding hustle. Here are a few of my go-to escapes: ?? Early morning walks with a good friend ?? Quality time in nature ? A (decaf) coffee from one of the lovely coffee shops on my doorstep ?? Dancing around the kitchen to my favourite tunes ?? A grateful mile In the whirlwind of daily life—whether in bidding or beyond—I’d love to hear how you recharge and prioritise your wellbeing. Share your tips so I can add to my toolkit and inspire others to do the same. ?Let’s turn well-intentioned words into meaningful actions. #Wellbeing #MentalHealth #Bidding #WorkLifeBalance #Community #WorldMentalHealthDay ShineX Simon Pearce Anne McNamara Yasmin Louise Nash Nuha Al-Qassab

?? World Mental Health Day: Prioritizing Well-being in and out of the Workplace ???? Today, on World Mental Health Day, it is important to reflect on the significance of mental well-being—not just as individuals but as part of an organization committed to supporting the holistic health of our team. At PRAG, we believe mental health is just as important as physical health. Through initiatives like Right2Rest, we have taken steps to ensure our workplace is a space where both empathy and well-being are prioritized. This year, to mark the day and take a break from our busy schedules, our team engaged in a fun activity: we all drew together. ????? This creative exercise allowed us to unwind, bond, and express ourselves in a light-hearted way, reinforcing the idea that taking mental breaks can be enjoyable and rejuvenating. In addition to this activity, we are committed to fostering a supportive environment by implementing the following initiatives: ? Buddy System: We have implemented a buddy system that allows new employees to select their own buddies during their initial weeks. This initiative fosters meaningful connections and encourages open conversations about mental health in a supportive environment. ? Yearly Team Retreats: We organize annual trips that provide our team with opportunities to bond outside the office. These retreats not only strengthen relationships but also offer a chance for employees to unwind and recharge in a relaxed setting. ? Regular Team-building Activities: Beyond our annual trips, we host regular team-building exercises that promote collaboration and camaraderie, helping to build trust and understanding among team members. ? Feedback and Improvement: We regularly solicit feedback from our team about their experiences and needs regarding mental health support, allowing us to adapt and enhance our initiatives continually. As we observe World Mental Health Day, let us remember that mental health is a collective responsibility. Supporting each other at work—whether by creating a more inclusive space, offering help, or simply lending an ear—can make a world of difference. ?? Let us continue working towards a world where mental health is prioritized, and well-being is at the heart of everything we do. #WorldMentalHealthDay #MentalWellBeing #WorkplaceWellness #PRAG #MentalHealthAwareness #Right2Rest

These tips are here to help you with feeling overwhelmed by commitment and 5 ways to stand up for yourself and stop harming your mental health!

We all know it’s good to move. That it’s not good for us to keep chained to our desks at work. But how easy do we find it to move in our working day? It’s Mental Health Awareness Week 13-19 May and this year’s theme is “Movement: Moving more for our mental health”.??Check out my blog on why?moving is good for us and our mental health. And join me in committing to five simple healthy wellbeing at work habits this week. In a working day of back to back Teams calls, deadlines to meet, emails to answer, it can often feel hard to step away from our desks. Even though we know it’s not healthy, how many of us keep on ploughing through the day without stopping for air? We know what we “should” be doing for our health, but there’s always just one more thing to get to, then another, then another and before you know it, you’ve been at your desk for hours. So how about for Mental Health Awareness Week, we commit to FIVE simple healthy wellbeing habits for each working day this week and see how that makes us feel when we move more? 5 simple practices for wellbeing at work this Mental Health Awareness Week 1. Breathe Slow down the breath to quieten the nervous system when you find yourself in freeze, fight or flight mode and bring some peace and calm. Breathe in slowly for a count of three. Hold for a count of three. Then slowly exhale for six. Repeat three times. Practise this three times during your work day, in the morning, middle and end of the day. 2. Move every 45 minutes Average humans can only concentrate on a task for 15-20 minutes, before concentration declines. To increase productivity, take a five minute break and step away from your desk every 45 minutes. Schedule short breaks every working hour.?Get up and move away from your screen. Go speak to a colleague in the office, fetch a glass of water, take a comfort break or anything that moves you away from your work-station. 3. Pause for lunch Promise yourself you’ll take a proper lunch break & commit to doing something for yourself every day that has nothing to do with work. Take your full hour, leave the building and go for a walk. If you’re lucky to be close to a park, or the countryside, get out in nature and enjoy the greenery and wildlife. 4. Water yourself Fetch a glass of water or make a cup of tea. People need 6 to 8 cups or glasses of fluid a day. Stepping away from your desk to get a drink is also good way to catch up with colleagues, socialise and take advantage of the “water-cooler” moments in the office. 5. Give thanks and practice gratitude Take time for reflection and gratitude practice. Looking back on the highs and lows of the day, note your wins and successes. Acknowledge your achievements, no matter how small, and focus on the positive. Jot down 1 or 2 things every day you’re grateful for in your job and work life. #MentalHealthAwareness #MomentsforMovement #MHAW24 #WorkplaceMentalHealth #WorkplaceWellbeing #WorkplaceWellness #Move4YourMind
