Health and wellbeing
You want to feel better but you’re finding it hard to put yourself first. Here are some ideas of things you can do for yourself. They are do-able. They work. And you can fit them around your children.
Collect your favourites
Tip: It’s easy to collect useful info as you go.
Wherever you see a heart icon click on it to save the page to ‘My favourites’. You can go to your favourites by clicking on the heart icon at the top right heart of this website. You can then save the info as a pdf or email it to yourself.
Please remember that your favourites will remain for a while but not for ever. For example, if you clear your browsing history you will lose your favourites.
