To be able to best care for others, you need to be caring for yourself.
That can sometimes be easier said than done, with common challenges like finding the time and space, feeling selfish for putting yourself first, or even just knowing where to start, to be overcome.
The National Wellbeing Hub have compiled a page of resources to help you look after your mental wellbeing, and hopefully help you find a way through some of life’s challenges.
The National Wellbeing Hub website collates ideas for all health and social care staff on how to stay well. Topics include mental and physical wellbeing and financial wellbeing.
Advice given includes:
- Top tips for managing stress and burn out
- Tips for managing anxiety
- Information on improving your sleep
- Coping with grief
The website also includes a ten minute guided relaxation session, relaxation technique and advice if you feel you have a low mood.

Support is also available on the NHS Lanarkshire website.
