Mental Wealth Management
Empower your people to proactively support their wellbeing
Supporting employee wellbeing makes good business sense. When people feel good they perform at their best and the business benefits.
However, transforming an organisation to better support mental health and wellbeing is not without challenge.
I advocate a holistic approach, such as that laid down in NICE Mental Wellbeing at Work Guidance. Doing so puts in place preventative and protective measures, as well as those that address mental ill-health caused or made worse by work.
That said, it's important to recognise that health and safety is a joint responsibility. The UK Health and Safety at Work Act etc. 1974, places duties on both the employer and the employee.
Whilst employers have a duty of care under The Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations to provide safe working conditions and respond when issues arise, such activities mean little if employees are not also taking care of themselves.
Helping people to understand how their sense of wellbeing impacts their ability to think and function and how they can safeguard it, means they take appropriate action to keep themselves well.
Training Objective
Mental Wealth Management is designed to empower people to proactively care for themselves by increasing their mental health and wellbeing literacy.
Content
Delivered in office or online, Mental Wealth Management uses money management principles to teach people how to perform at their best without negatively impacting their wellbeing.
The interactive course:
-
unpacks the meaning of wellbeing and how we can support ourselves,
-
examines the causes of stress and its management, and
-
outlines the scientific basis of burnout and how it can be avoided.
Session 1. Safeguard wellbeing
>What is mental health and wellbeing?
>Mental Wealth Management principles
>What impacts our wellbeing?
>How we can support ourselves
Session 2. Manage stress
> Stress at work (HSE 6 factors)
> Personal stress signature
> 3 ways to manage any stressor
> Coping strategies
Session 3. Avoid burnout
>What is burnout?
>The burnout equation (risk factors)
>The exhaustion funnel
>The science of recovery
Exercises and reflective tasks help individuals identify what helps them to stay well, identify their personal symptoms of stress and think about actions they can take when they notice they are no longer feeling good or functioning well.
Depending on interest, an additional mental wealth management planning session can be included to supplement learning and help people create a personal Mental Wealth Management Plan.

This training is relevant to everyone.
Understanding how our mental wellbeing impacts our ability to think, feel and do and how we can support ourselves, empowers us to take early and appropriate action and keep ourselves well.
In large organisations it is usual to train upper management first so that they are familiar with the concepts before the rest of the workforce are introduced.

Lunch & Learn
Perfect introduction to mindfulness
If you want to learn about mindfulness then this is a perfect introduction. The Taste of Mindfulness session was very well structured and helped me learn the truth about mindfulness. I particularly liked the exercise where we were asked to observe the mind whilst looking at an image on a slide - really helped you understand how your brain does its own thing! I also liked seeing everyone's comments in the chat when asked for our thoughts at different points during the session and Tracey's response as she read them out.

Worklife Coaching
Less anxious - more focused
I was having great difficulty setting up a regular meditation practice and establishing other kinds of productivity habits.
With Tracey's help, I've made a lot of progress, and I'm less anxious and more focused as a result. She provided accountability for me, and was often quite forensic in examining how my practice was developing. Overall, her guidance and support has been invaluable.
Drop-in Meditation
The best way to spend a lunchtime
I was introduced to Tracey when she ran an inhouse lunchtime wellbeing session at my company. I found the technique she shared an extremely beneficial way to reduce stress and restore calm during a working day.
Attending her weekly lunchtime drop-in session has since become an important part of my week. It provides a reset in my busy day and ensures that I take time to focus on ways to relax and manage stress.
Each session begins with an introduction to the practice that we’re going to use. This is essential in understanding how you benefit from the varying techniques she shares and encourages you to practice independently.
Tracey’s drop-in session is the best way to spend a lunchtime as it reenergises you, both mentally and physically. The structure of the sessions – theory and practice - has helped to reduce anxiety and rumination.
