Mental Health & Wellbeing Six Week Course
You will explore the role of boundaries, empathy and self-awareness. You will reflect on the spectrum and contributing factors of mental ill-health to emotional wellbeing.
You will develop your own skills and confidence in promoting the wellbeing of others through creative interventions, effective conversations and resilient relationship building. You will also learn about the principles of personal wellbeing and some of the ways to maintain it.
This course concludes by considering how a mental health strategy might increase staff engagement, retention and productivity to create mentally healthy working environments.
