The NHS recommends these five steps based on research and evidence to enhance our wellbeing. Incorporating these steps into daily life may lead to increased happiness, positivity, and overall life satisfaction.
1. Connect:
Nurture relationships with family, friends, colleagues, and neighbours. Invest time in strengthening these connections.
2. Stay active:
Physical activity doesn’t have to be limited to the gym. Enjoy a simple walk for example. Find a favourite activity and make it part of your routine.
3. Keep learning:
Acquiring a new skill can boost self-esteem and confidence. Consider taking up something you’ve always been interested in but never got round to looking into.
4. Give to others:
If you can’t give time, small gestures, such as a smile, a thank you, or a kind word, can make a difference to both you and the person they are aimed at. Simple things like this can enhance mental well-being and foster new social connections.
5. Practice mindfulness:
Cultivate awareness of the present moment, including thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations and the surrounding environment. This mindfulness can positively impact your outlook on life and how you approach challenges.
