5 www.nationalstressawarenessday.co.uk 2012 Delivery of the session The first page of the “Defining Outcomes for Wellbeing at Work” is an overview of what wellbeing is and the benefits of improving our wellbeing. This page is an introduction to the ‘Nef 5 Ways to Wellbeing’ that looks at a set of evidence based actions that help improve personal wellbeing. Evidence suggests that a small improvement in wellbeing can help to decrease some mental health problems and also help people to flourish. This year’s NSAD is looking at ways we can improve our general wellbeing and that of others.

6 www.nationalstressawarenessday.co.uk 2012 Delivery of the session Exercise 1 Under each of the headings ask the group/individual to think about 2 activities they can do at home and work that will enhance their wellbeing.
