What is the 5 Ways to Wellbeing concept?
Here at Pharmacist Support, we’re keen advocates of the well-established 5 Ways to Wellbeing and it’s at the heart of the #ACTNow wellbeing campaign. This is because strong evidence suggests that our mental health and wellbeing can improve through following 5 simple steps:
- Connecting with others
- Being physically active
- Learning new skills
- Giving to others
- Taking notice of the present moment.
The ACTNow campaign activity and events are specifically designed around the 5 Ways to Wellbeing, helping you to become familiar with the concept and supporting you to prioritise wellbeing in your everyday life.
