Building wellbeing into the working day can be easier when small habits are written down and revisited regularly. This printable workplace wellbeing handout brings together simple ideas for managing stress, taking breaks, eating well, sleeping better, reducing pressure and staying connected with colleagues.
These workplace wellbeing tips for stress and self-care are designed to help staff notice everyday pressure points and choose small actions that feel manageable during a busy working day. The printable handout brings together practical prompts on taking proper breaks, reducing pressure, relaxing, eating well, sleeping better, keeping active and staying connected, so it can support conversations about work stress, mental health at work and employee wellbeing without feeling overwhelming.
It is suitable for working adults, line managers, HR teams, occupational health staff and wellbeing champions who want a clear, easy to share resource for the workplace. It can be used in wellbeing sessions, team meetings, supervision, return-to-work discussions, staff inductions or as a noticeboard display. Individuals can also print it for personal reflection, using the checklist-style ideas to plan lunch breaks, manage workloads, prepare for unexpected tasks and make time for enjoyable activities outside work.
The guidance is deliberately brief and practical, with suggestions such as stepping away from the desk, limiting caffeine later in the day, switching off digital devices in the evening, keeping a tidy workspace and breaking problems into smaller steps. Download or print the PDF to keep these reminders visible and make regular self-care easier to discuss at work. This resource was created by MindWell Leeds.
