15:00 - 15:30 MENTAL HEALTH TO MENTAL WEALTH with CHARLOTTE WISEMAN at STEP-INSIDE
“Mental health is defined as a state of wellbeing in which every individual realizes his or her own potential."
In 2017 we heard a lot about 'mental health awareness', you may have heard 'there is not health without mental health' but how much do we really understand about mental health? What does good mental health look like, how can we look after ours and how can we support others who are facing challenging times? This session will demystify mental health, explaining the difference between mental health, mental illness and mental wealth. You will learn to identify the signs of positive mental wellbeing, will learn scientific evidence-based techniques to improve mental health proactively and will understand how you can help those around you.
