Our award-winning half day workshop

The Essentials workshop is the foundation for workplace wellbeing, and it’s at the core of everything we do at The Mental Health Toolkit.

This half-day session takes you through the Mental Health Continuum – the spectrum of mental health that we are all on – and introduces you to the Emotional Needs & Resources approach.

Unmet emotional needs trigger symptoms of mental ill health. Understanding how to meet them helps you understand what you need to be well, and enables you to take care of yourself and those around you.

The Essentials workshop will help you:

  • Undo misconceptions about mental health
  • Raise awareness of your emotional needs
  • Support yourself and those around you
  • Better understand sleep and mental health
  • Reduce the cost of sickness absence
  • Create a healthier place to work

The Essentials manual, and our Emotional Needs & Resources cards

The Essentials course covers:
