THE EMOTIONAL HEALTH DIVIDE
Society talks about our emotional states in terms of 'wellbeing' or 'mental health/illness'. The current narrative tends to imply that people are either profoundly happy, or profoundly unwell.
Of course, in reality, it's more of a rich spectrum.
We have ups and we have downs. Most of the time, our daily worries, stresses and frustrations are not serious mental health problems. They are emotional health imbalances.
Understanding our emotional needs and how to meet them is critically important. It means we know how and why the waves get choppy. Importantly, once we recognise an imbalance, we can act before the situation gets worse. We can catch exhaustion before it becomes burn-out, anxiety before it becomes panic and avoidance before it becomes addiction.
After 25 years of working in the field of wellbeing and emotional health, I have distilled the practice of wellbeing into nine simple principles that provide an easy-to-follow pathway to natural, long-lasting wellbeing for ourselves and our colleagues.
Understanding The Components Of Wellbeing
At it’s core, wellbeing means we can cope with adversity, thrive in spite of challenges and succeed in our goals.
COPE
Prevent the feeling of being overwhelmed and get on top of your challenges
THRIVE
Grow and flourish on a daily basis while building resilience
SUCCEED
Bring out the best in yourself and those around you, live a full life and experience true wellbeing
Understanding the building blocks of wellbeing is an essential prerequisite for people to be able to experience wellbeing.
The broad scope of the nine wellbeing principles ensures that there is something for everyone whilst their simplicity means the knowledge learned is easily transferable to colleagues, team members, family, and friends.
