12th April 2023
In 2022, as Chair of the WBATB I pledged to host a wellbeing panel discussion. I am pleased to say we finally managed to get the show on the road last night. Thank you so much for everyone who helped bring this together, to our guest speakers, James Pereira KC and Ruth Cooper-Dixon and Dentons for sponsoring. During the “Running on Empty” event we discussed the signs of creeping burnout, the impact our personal life experiences/personality types can have on this and, tips for prevention. Fascinating discussion. Here are some of my favourite tips. Which one will you commit to?
Tips for self-care
1. Maintaining physical health – start with small steps, once a week, once a day, just 15 mins and build from there, don’t aim to start with a marathon- small changes will last longer.
2. Good screen hygiene - monitor the time you spend on the screen and make it meaningful and with purpose to prevent the endless scroll. Avoid reaching for the mobile before you even get out of bed in the morning - allow your mind and body to wake up.
3. Positive reinforcements - step back every so often and reflect on your achievements in life and reward yourself.
4. Lead by example and speak up and vocalise when you are taking on too much and LEARN to ask for help.
Put on your oxygen mask first will ensure are you at your best, to lead by example and help others those around you get what they need. Why not share which tip you will prioritise, commit to it for the next 6 weeks to make a change in your lifestyle, check back here at the end of May to remind yourself and see how you get on.
