The Lighthouse Construction Industry Charity are reminding people it’s okay to take a break and step back.
Why Take a Break?
- Reduce stress: Short breaks can help to lower cortisol levels, the stress hormone.
- Increase focus: Stepping away from tasks can improve concentration and productivity when you return.
- Prevent burnout: Regular breaks can help to prevent emotional exhaustion and cynicism.
- Improve mental health: Taking time for yourself can boost your mood and overall wellbeing.
Remember, it’s okay to prioritise your mental health. By taking regular breaks and making small changes, you can improve your overall wellbeing and build a stronger, healthier you.
