OneNQ Self-Care and Mental Wellbeing Level 1 Workshop – Cooktown
Looking after everyone else is easier when you’ve got a plan for looking after yourself first.
This workshop gives you the knowledge, skills and resources to build an individualised self-care and mental wellbeing plan, with simple, realistic strategies you can weave into daily life.
This workshop is delivered by CORES™ Queensland (Community Owned Response to Eliminating Suicide) as part of their work supporting communities across Far North Queensland.
You’ll explore:
- What self-care really means, beyond the buzzwords
- The five dimensions of wellbeing: physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual
- How to identify your own early warning signs of burnout or overwhelm
- Building a self-care plan that’s realistic for your life and routine
- Simple daily habits that support long term mental wellbeing
This workshop pairs well with the Loss and Grief Workshop running earlier the same day, but also works as a standalone session for anyone wanting practical tools for their own wellbeing.
