The Five Ways to Wellbeing are a proven, simple set of actions that anyone can take to positively impact their day-to-day wellbeing.
They are small improvements that can help you feel good about yourself and the world around you.
Be Active
- Discover a physical activity that suits you.
- Go for a walk, run or cycle.
- Play a game, do some gardening or just have a dance.
- Regular physical activity can help with depression and anxiety.
- Only got 5 minutes? Type ‘plank’ into Google and try it out! Doing this for just one minute a day can reap huge benefits.
We’re using the 5 Ways to Wellbeing to promote a range of services and activities in the borough that can make you feel good and function well.
