This National Fertility Awareness Week, we welcome Anita Guru, Business Development Manager at Fertility Network UK, to share the importance of raising awareness of fertility in the workplace, why a fertility policy is essential for employers to have in place, and why nurturing a supportive work environment for people going through fertility challenges is key to reducing stress and mental health issues.
World Mental Health Day is here, and with it, an opportunity to raise the profile of mental health care around the world.
Happening on 10th October each year, the day encourages all of us to take a moment to check in with our own mental health, and the ways we can support the mental health of the people around us too. This year, the theme has been set by The World Federation For Mental Health as “It is time to prioritize mental health in the workplace.”
We are excited to contribute to raising awareness of this theme. As an organisation working hard to support the mental health of professionals and business teams to prioritise mental wellness and prevent burnout, our aim is to embed positive mental health practices in a way that’s practical and beneficial for all. Tania Diggory, Founder & Director of Calmer, believes “your mind is your business’ greatest asset”. It’s time for us to celebrate this' years’ World Mental Health Day, and this article provides you with a list of ways you can get involved too.
Progress is always worth celebrating, both in and out of the workplace. Whether you’ve been dealing with anxiety, burnout, stress, or any kind of pressing situation, taking the time to acknowledge what you’ve conquered and to honour your progress plays an important role in your mental wellbeing.
When we recognise personal growth in a positive way, it inspires us to keep going and continue our pursuit of a fulfilling life. It serves as a reminder of how resilient we can be and also what we can achieve when we persevere through tough times or situations. If you want to mark your successes in surviving whatever curveballs life has thrown your way, these ideas can help you do so.
This week, guest writer Gladys Torres returns with another piece for Calmer, sharing insights on how to navigate challenging times and a proactive mindset.
