Looking after your mind is just as important as your body.
It is important that we stay connected with others and try to have conversations with friends, family, co-workers etc… Whether it’s via phone, video, online or messaging, catching up with those you care about can really lift your mood.
Keeping active can also have a great effect on your mental wellbeing. Exercise is a great way to relieve stress, and tension. Make sure you are making time to stay active, whether that’s going for a walk or trying some relaxing Yoga in your living room.
At Active Leeds we are regularly uploading workout videos to try from home on our livestream timetable, Facebook and YouTube Channels.
Sleep is very important for how we feel, so make sure you are going to bed relaxed and getting plenty of sleep. Having a good sleeping pattern will also help keep you in a good daily routine, which is great for your wellbeing.
As well as your work make sure you make time for your favourite hobbies.
