April spotlight: Clear mind, body and environment
This month we're putting the spotlight on clearing your mind, body and environment.
From meditating to recharge, to improving your gut health and decluttering your home, learn how improving your mind, body and environment can all contribute to enhanced health and wellbeing.
Be inspired
Be inspired to prioritise your health and wellbeing by attending a wellness event. Check out some of the events you can attend this month:
Decluttering your home
Feeling overwhelmed by stuff? Choose a room in your home and focus on one object at a time.
Ask yourself: Do I need it? Do I love it? Do I use it?
Use the answers to clear your physical space and give yourself room to mentally move on.
Adding plants to your work space
Plants in your workplace can bring physical and psychological benefits, including:
- reduced stress and increased productivity
- cleaner air and decreased noise levels.
Be sure to choose plants that can thrive in your workplace. Good indoor options include succulents, rubber plants and peace lilies.
