We’ll discuss what insomnia is and develop strategies that may help alleviate individual sleep issues. You will be encouraged to look at your personal sleep hygiene to see how improving environment and lifestyle could help establish better sleep patterns and by sharing our experiences around sleep, we can learn from each other and develop better sleep habits. | Hope/Wellbeing |
| Occupational Balance | Occupational balance is important to increase individual health and happiness, promote mental wellbeing, reduce stress and increase companionship. Therefore engaging in a good balance of occupations can provide life satisfaction. Good occupational balance often shows as a balance of self-care, leisure, and productivity. In this session we will cover the different components to occupation, reflect on our own occupations and use the wellness wheel to work towards a healthy occupational balance. Improving wellbeing and sharing experiences is one of our main focuses at Community Roots, we hope the skills you learn and continue to develop can promote health and wellbeing in your life. | Belonging/Choice |
| Personal Values | Our personal values allow us to develop a greater sense of purpose and drive our personalities and how we work towards goals. Therefore, developing a better understanding of our individual values leads us to goal setting, working towards dreams rather than against them. In this session we will discuss what personal values are and their benefits and move on to discover your core values with top tips on how we can incorporate these into daily life. At Community Roots we are dedicated to improving quality of life and sharing our lived experiences to reduce stigma | |
| PERMA | PERMA is an acronym which stands for Positive emotions, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning and Accomplishment. It’s a scientific based model which was developed to fully represent all the factors that make up an individual’s wellbeing. By the end of this course we hope to explain the model of PERMA, how each factor relates to our wellbeing and suggest some possible activities that may assist in developing habits within our own lives that could possibly improve some of the factors to develop our own levels of well-being. If you’re interested in PERMA, we also run a course over five days covering the five aspects of PERMA | Wellbeing |
| Tree Of Life | Reflecting on our life experiences helps us to stop amidst life’s chaos. Understanding them helps us grow from our experiences. The tree of Life is a creative course that allows us to look at your life experiences, things that are important to you and how you look at yourself. We’ll discuss what a Tree of Life visual could be used for and start to create our own personal designs. You’ll be encourages to take your Tree of Life home with you and to keep adding to the design throughout your personal wellbeing journey. By reflecting on our experiences, we might find areas which we are proud of but also want to work on. At Community Roots we can provide you with courses to support this. | Choice |
