Many of us take our health for granted until we (or our loved ones) are struck down with illness, but I believe that if we take regular, proactive steps in life and work to care for our physical and mental wellbeing, many illnesses can be entirely prevented. What are your book or podcast recommendations on the topic of mental health? Meditation apps would be up there in the number one category for me. Calm is my preferred app for meditation at the moment. I also love Jay Shetty’s work on the subject, and a great recent read was The Mindful High Performer by Chelsea Pottenger.
I believe that supporting mental health is as important as supporting physical health, and I would like everyone to feel safe and free to bring their whole selves to work. As a person who has sustained significant loss in recent years, I have learned first hand how important it is to have support and care available both inside and outside of work. I also care very much for the team we have here at Clyde’s and want to see everyone thrive in all areas of their lives. Why should we look after our physical and mental wellbeing? When you get sick you realise how little you are able to do in life without your health, and sickness extends beyond physical and visible ailments to the invisible, mental ailments. To survive and ultimately thrive in life in the long term, we all need to consistently focus
