Mental health problems can affect anyone, any day of the year, but 10 October is a great day to show your support for better mental health and start looking after your own wellbeing.

 

The theme for World Mental Health Day 2017 is workplace wellbeing. So whether you're an individual looking to boost your own wellbeing or an employer seeking advice on supporting your staff, we've got a range of ways you can get involved. 

Take a deep breath

Learning to breathe more deeply can make you feel a lot calmer and increase your sense of wellbeing. Take five minutes to try out this simple breathing exercise. Once you've got the hang of it you can use this technique anywhere - at work, at home or on the bus or tube - anytime you feel your stress level rising or need a moment of calm.

Tips for staying well in everyday life and at work

Living with a mental health problem can often have an impact on day to day life, making things that others might not think about a bit more difficult. We've put together some tips and guides to help you cope with everyday life.
