When did you last take a stroll (or fast paced walk) around your local area? Take advantage of an #ActiveLunchbreak or the nights becoming lighter & take a walk, noticing new things as you go #ActiveApril #Day16 @actionhappiness

Remember today's #ActiveApril task? That's right; sing! Where did you bellow out a good tune today & what was it? Our practitioner @Ali_Beswick rocked out to Bon Jovi whilst making tea. Oreo (馃憞) took cover in his carrier... no animals were harmed by Ali's 'tuneful' 馃檮voice...

Relaxing your mind & body can be really beneficial (and enjoyable too). Why not spend a short period of time today practising yoga, tai chi, meditation or mindfulness? #ActiveApril #Day14 @actionhappiness

Here's your reminder to try to settle down earlier this evening & make #sleep your priority. It doesn't have to be stupidly early, even an hour, or half an hour earlier than normal is still a change & could help you get a good quality sleep. Your body & brain will thank you 馃憡

If you have ever attended our #SleepWell workshop, or had a night of shocking sleep, you will know how important #Sleep is for our body, brain & health. Today's #ActiveApril task is to make sleep a priority & go to bed for a reasonable time, even just a little earlier than usual

Today is #Day12 of #ActiveApril @actionhappiness. How much can you move today? Movement includes walking, stretching, using the stairs instead of the lift, hitting the gym, swimming; anything that gets your body moving around

Stress and anxiety are terms that are often used interchangeably. This is not surprising, because the physical response to both feels the same. The good news? 馃コ psychological treatment for both conditions is similar and effective. #StressAwarenessMonth

Recognising our symptoms of stress can help us to identify the cause, or at least a pattern. We can then use this to work on reducing the amount of stress we experience, or putting actions in place to help us feel less overwhelmed at that time. #StressAwarenessMonth

Sometimes it's difficult to know the cause of our #Stress, so it's important to recognise our symptoms of stress... These are just a few: - anxiety - increased heart rate - sweaty palms - short fuse/impatient - sleep issues (exhausted/insomnia) - upset stomach - negative feelings

This month is #StressAwarenessMonth. Did you know there are 2 types of #Stress? Eustress excites, drives & energises us; this kind of stress helps us to get out of bed & be productive. Di-stress (distress) has negative implications & is more often referred to as 'stress'...

How did today go? Now think of something that went well today... Okay. Answer the above question again: How did today go? We all have difficult days, but by reflecting on something positive, we can often reflect on the day more positively overall. @actionhappiness #MindfulMarch
