Sending out monthly newsletters with tips to support your team's mental health is just one of the many resources we share with our clients so they can more easily promote mental health in the workplace. Below is the Mental Health Tip we shared this past June so you can see how these tips are framed and what you get in that email.
If you'd like to sign up to be on that email list and receive shareable mental health tips for your teams, you can do so here (*you do not need to be a client to get on the list):
Below we have two downloadable files. The first is a landscape .png file, and should fit your screens. The second is a PDF file for sharing via email or printing. Click the images below to download the file directly from Dropbox. You can bypass the place it tells you to login and simply download without a login.
Here's how to use this resource:
Take a 10-minute walk after you eat! This helps keep your blood sugar levels steady because your muscles directly use up circulating blood glucose, without the need for insulin. Walking also helps your stomach digest your meal better, so you feel more comfortable and less bloated. Plus, it's good for your heart, helps you stay fit, and can even put you in a better mood.
If you find yourself unmotivated to get outside for your walk, try listening to your favourite podcast, or audiobook or even make a fun plalist of your favourite songs. Eventually, you might even look forward to these 10-minute movement breaks, plus you'll be doing something great for your body and mind!
So, next time you finish a meal, lace up your shoes and enjoy a stroll - it's a simple way to take care of your health!
Try adding post-meal walks to your routine! They regulate blood sugar, aid digestion, boost heart health, assist with weight management, and lift your mood. It’s a simple way to enhance your well-being!
