Educating minds to enhance wellbeing

Well Minds Work has already had a busy start to 2024, conducting mental health and wellbeing workshops with prominent organisations in Tasmania!
Today Well Minds Work collaborated with the PhD students at IMAS, completing a training session on anticipating and preventing burnout, as well as how to enhance self-care.
We thoroughly enjoyed the enthusiasm from the team at IMAS, which resulted in many productive conversations.
Please get in touch if you or your team are interested in engaging in some similar training! ?

A psychosocial hazard is anything that could cause psychological harm (e.g. harm someone’s mental health). Common psychosocial hazards at work include: High job demands, lack of support, inadequate reward and recognition and bullying.
Under WHS model laws a person conducting a business or undertaking (PCBU) must eliminate psychosocial risks, or if that is not reasonably practicable, minimise them so far as is reasonably practicable.
Psychosocial Risk Assessment assists in identifying hazards and appropriate controls to meet WHS standards.

A big shoutout and thank you to everyone who came along to Hobart Brewing Co. yesterday for the last Psych in the Pub for 2023 – Stop the Drama! How to Escape Unhealthy Relationship Dynamics.
Unfortunately one of our amazing presenters – Dr. Emma – was unwell, so Jess needed to go solo for this one. Although Emma was sorely missed, we had a great afternoon of fun and learning!
Can’t wait to see you all next year for more Psych in the Pub sessions and please get in touch with any topics of interest!
Enhancing workplace mental health involves numerous strategies. One strategy is maintaining boundaries regarding aspects of your work and your work role.
Maintaining work boundaries challenging at first, but it gets easier the more we practice. Have a look at the tips below to give you some ideas of where to start!
Thank you to everyone who made it to Psych in the Pub: The Psychology of Psychopathy yesterday!
Well Minds Work were stoked with how many people turned up to learn about how to spot a psychopath, what makes them tick and what to do if you ever come in contact with psychopath yourself!
A big thankyou to Hobart Brewing Co. for their ongoing support of Psych in the Pub.
Looking forward to seeing you all at the next Psychology in the Pub coming up in November!
