Tough thoughts are normal. They’re often a form of self-protection. But don’t let them call the shots on who you are and how you live.

Do you have the skills, knowledge & experience to act as a mentor to colleagues working in the health & social care system in Derbyshire? If so, I’d love to chat. Please DM me to find out more. @JoinedUpCare @DCHStrust @DCHStrust @trudystring @garnett_linda @NHSTracyG @UHDB_OD

Menopause is a stage of life. Making your workplace menopause friendly will support #OurNHSPeople to stay and stay well, in line with the #NHSLongTermWorkforcePlan. Our eLearning module aims to raise awareness of menopause and its impact on those at work: bit.ly/3QnTljM

I read some of this lovely book every morning - it’s like a kind friend ❤️ this page spoke to me today & a nice reminder to be kinder to myself this weekend! The chores really can wait - ‘you’ll get to it, but first, get to YOU’ x @BlurtAlerts

Wow, a powerful reminder from @wolves that you're not alone. 💚 We’re always here to listen 24/7 on 116 123. 📱

Setting boundaries isn’t about being unkind; it's about respecting ourselves just as much as we respect others. When we establish clear limits, we protect our well-being. It's okay to prioritise your needs—they are just as important as anyone else’s. #BlurtItOut #Boundaries

What will you pick from the #Selfcare menu tonight? What else might be on your list? After a busy day I’ll definitely be picking at least one thing 🙏🏻

@DCHStrust colleagues, really excited to say the ‘Kind life’ launch event is happening later today!! If you’re coming along, please tweet your thoughts using #kindlifeDCHS as we go through the session. @NHSOEteam @TracyAllenDCHS @JaneGinniver @DTidmarshDCHS

We're holding a webinar on 11th May on #menopause and #anxiety with Linda Gillham, who will offer insights & expert info on the impact of fluctuating hormone levels on emotional well-being with top tips on managing symptoms. Book your space here: eventbrite.co.uk/e/what-is-the-…

When your family get you (although not for long 🤣) with an #AprilFool at 7.59am 🙈 ‘there’s a mouse 🐁 in the kitchen’😆

@BlurtAlerts So sad to read this - you have helped me personally and professionally, I will miss your Saturday emails - wishing you all the very best - you will be in my thoughts x

It has been great to attend an event for #IWD @derbyshcft @JucdWellbeing we shared resources available to support wellbeing & discussed the power of community & the need to change the narrative around the ‘juggling’ we often do- we can absolutely do ANYTHING but not EVERYTHING 🙏🏻

@stephthompson66 @lindakiernan may have some ideas on this?

Can anyone recommend a talk or webinar on #impostersyndrome ? Would love to get this on the next timetable 🤩

It might be your village, it might be a class you attend, a club you are party of, your workplace or you might find in a noisy stand on a Saturday cheering on your team 🥅 🤩👍🏻

Well, today I went to my first proper football match - I normally leave it up to the rest of my little family but I got into their world today & it was fab! It made me reflect that #community is everything in life & it doesn’t matter where you find it as long as you find it ❤️

Experienced this exact thing 👇🏻 today! I always challenge this if I hear it- we need every role to enable great things to happen 🙏🏻

Love these little prompts to ask someone how they are ❤️

#TimeToTalkDay today & I have talked and listened my little socks 🧦 off! I have tried to ask people how they are twice today so that they actually tell me & I have also made an effort to talk about how I am feeling too (also really important!) have you made #timetotalk today?

Managers play a key role in fostering a supportive work environment for employees. On #TimeToTalkDay, we're sharing tips from @CIPD on how to promote mental health in the workplace. Let's work together to support our colleagues. #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealth
