Day 23 of 31 Days of Wellbeing... Even us introverts need to socialise for healthy wellbeing. It is so easy for some of us to fall into the trap of avoiding people contact when we are feeling down. This is the worst thing we can possibly do! We need people in our lives to make … Continue reading 31 Days of Wellbeing: Day 23
Day 22 of 31 Days of Wellbeing... Time to dig a little deeper into ourselves today - not as scary as it sounds! Today, it is time to reflect. Reflect on the day that has passed, or even the week/month/year so far. Take stock of the challenges and successes. What has made you feel good … Continue reading 31 Days of Wellbeing: Day 22
Day 21 of 31 Days of Wellbeing... This is definitely one of the hardest activities for me... I am totally in awe of anyone who can do this for more than one day per week. Try to go one day this week (ideally today but depends what you have already eaten so far!) without processed … Continue reading 31 Days of Wellbeing: Day 21
Day 20 of 31 Days of Wellbeing... So many of us fall into the trap of people pleasing. We are so keen to please, that we become afraid to disagree with someone...afraid of admitting the films we truly enjoy because we know the others think differently....scared of showing our real opinions at work...or maybe it's … Continue reading 31 Days of Wellbeing: Day 20
Day 19 of 31 Days of Wellbeing... It is so easy to get wrapped up in all the frustrating little moments in life. Too much traffic, a tiff with a colleague, leaving a tissue in the laundry (my worst one!)...these silly things can have a really negative impact on you. And that's okay! We will … Continue reading 31 Days of Wellbeing: Day 19
Day 17 of 31 Days of Wellbeing... We are going for a simple one here, simple but very powerful and important to increase your self-esteem and wellbeing.

Day 16 of 31 Days of Wellbeing... I've had a couple of days off writing posts because I have had a very busy few days, and I was at risk of burning out if I kept pushing myself to do too many things at once. Remember, there is only so much you can do and … Continue reading 31 Days of Wellbeing: Day 16
Day 15 of 31 Days of Wellbeing... This is probably the hardest mental activity to do so far. We are often told to make a list of our strengths as part of a wellbeing challenge, but in Fearne Cotton's 'Happy: Journal' book, I was asked to do something completely opposite, which was scary but actually … Continue reading 31 Days of Wellbeing: Day 15
Day 14 of 31 Days of Wellbeing... As much as I love my home, travelling is something which has always boosted my wellbeing and love for life. I believe experiencing and appreciating the wider world is important for our wellbeing, as it takes us away from stagnant routines and heavy workloads, which can grind us … Continue reading 31 Days of Wellbeing: Day 14
Day 13 of 31 Days of Wellbeing... For this day, I am going to choose an activity which I personally desperately need right now... I normally force myself to stay awake until my 'usual bedtime', but sometimes, it pays off to ignore the routine and get some extra zzz's. It is a horrible feeling when you … Continue reading 31 Days of Wellbeing: Day 13
