Funnily enough, there's more to rest than meets the eye. It's easy to fall into the trap of thinking that rest is simply 'not' doing something, but it turns out you can feed your body, mind and spirit by actively choosing different kinds of rest, depending on what you need. According to Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith, author of 'Sacred Rest: Recover Your Life, Renew Your Energy, Restore Your Sanity', the 7 different types of rest are: 1. Physical rest. 2. Mental rest. 3. Emotional rest. 4. Sensory rest. 5. Creative rest. 6. Social rest. 7. Spiritual rest. Which type of rest do you need to take to be more productive at work? ____________________________ As Workplace Wellbeing Consultants, we care about the wellbeing of your people.

Appreciating Your Support System While Prioritizing Self-Care In our fast-paced lives, it's easy to take the people who support us for granted. Whether it's family, friends or colleagues, we all have a network of individuals who care deeply about our well-being and success. However, as caring as they may be, it's crucial that we don't become overly reliant on others to the point where it impacts our own mental health. As professionals, we often get so focused on our careers goals that we neglect our personal well-being. While ambition is important, we must remember to pace ourselves sustainably. Constantly giving our all without taking time to recharge can lead to burnout. It's during these low periods that the support of loved ones becomes invaluable. Rather than waiting until we're at our wit's end, make it a point to express gratitude to your close ones regularly. A heartfelt thank you or spending quality time together goes a long way in strengthening important bonds and letting others know they play a key role in your life. At the same time, be sure to also prioritize self-care. Whether through meditation, exercise or simply disconnecting from work, find healthy ways to manage stress that don't depend on others. Maintaining a work-life balance and a solid support system are equally crucial for long-term wellness and productivity. Don't forget to appreciate your champions while also taking care of yourself. Striking this balance will allow you to sustain a rewarding career and personal life. 🤍✍️🤍 Ngwoke Judith #Appreciation #SupportSystem #Wellness #wellbeing

Day 9 of #YourWellbeingYourJob. Sometimes, knowing when to walk away is the bravest decision you can make. We’re often scared to say no. But why? Are we afraid of being replaced? Of being left behind? Being available 24/7 isn’t a flex; it’s a recipe for burnout. Fear has turned many of us into workaholics, and it’s taking a toll—mentally, emotionally, even physically. Just like speaking up, walking away from something that’s harming you is a sign of strength, not failure—whether it’s a toxic job, a draining relationship, or a limiting mindset. Holding on out of fear only hurts you in the long run. Walking away isn’t giving up; it’s choosing yourself. Yes, it’s scary. You might think, “What if I don’t find something better?” But the real question is, “What if I stay and lose myself?” Here’s how to know when it’s time to let go: You feel drained rather than fulfilled ↳ Constant exhaustion is a clear sign it’s time to move on. It no longer aligns with your values ↳ If you’re compromising who you are, it’s time to reconsider. You’ve given it your best shot ↳ Sometimes, despite all efforts, things just don’t change. Your health is suffering ↳ Your mental and physical wellbeing should never be sacrificed. You dread going there ↳ If the thought of staying makes you anxious, it’s time to walk away. #Itsokaytosayno. It’s okay to #ChooseYourself over the fear of the unknown. Your wellbeing comes first! #ReclaimYou Drop a 💡 in the comments if you’ve ever said yes to something at work because you were afraid to say no. #MentalHealthMatters #WorkLifeBalance #SelfAwareness #SpeakUp #LifeBalance #WellbeingFirst #ReclaimYou #YourWellbeingYourJob #AskForHelp #Balance #WellnessChallenge #HappinessHabits

❗ Let's get real here —we all crave some downtime, but sometimes it feels like work is a never-ending cycle. 💡 But what if we discovered that taking a break isn't such a bad idea after all? We might hesitate because, well, chilling out doesn't exactly scream "dedication." Don't get me wrong; I'm all about the hustle, and learning from challenges can be pretty rewarding. But I also love kicking back with my favorite book, binging on K-dramas, and sipping on a good cup of joe. Here's the deal: if you're grinding away without any breaks, you're heading straight for burnout. Balancing hard work with some self-care is key to reaching your goals. Take a breather and reflect on what you've achieved. A clear mind helps you stay focused on your goals, while a healthy body lets you tackle new projects and enjoy life beyond work. 💡 When you start feeling drained and stuck, ask yourself: 1. How do I define success? It's cool if money's your thing, but be real with yourself about what else matters. Being honest about your values makes it easier to stay true to yourself. 2. What's your go-to response when someone asks for a favor? Can you say no or negotiate for a more manageable workload? Or are you always saying yes, even when you're stretched thin? 3. How do you take care of your most important asset—your mind? Mental health is no joke, especially in today's world. Make sure you're taking care of yourself mentally, just like you would with physical health. ✨Thanks for reading this far, I hope you make your day count! 💌 DM me for company wellness support 🌐 Connect and follow for more workplace wellness 👍🏼 Like and repost if this brings value to you #employeewellness #mentalhealth #burnout

Do you take a break from work when you’re not at optimal health ❓ Is there a balance between your work & personal life ❓ Are you making out time to properly eat, unwind & make merry even while you work❓ I’ve not got much questions to ask today, neither do I have much to say. Just to be clear “you cannot pour from an empty cup” even as you work, take time to rest, attend social events, read book’s & magazine that helps relax & unwind, eat good food, do health checkups, laugh with friends & family. I once heard of a person who lost his life after a brief illness that was a result of constant work & little time for rest. He was replaced at his work the following week because of course work has to continue. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying work is not important, but then, your mental & physical health is as important as that work too! 💡 #iLinkProsBC #iLinkPros #infotainment #worklifebalance #CaptainAwesomeThePR C07/13A _________________________________ Talk about unwinding; I’m also an event host, from time to time, I & my friends create timeless memories through my events.
