Headspace in Housing

Working in social housing is rewarding, but it also comes with unique pressures, high workloads, emotionally charged situations and ever-changing demands.

This event will bring together young housing professionals and mental health and wellbeing experts for an honest conversation about managing mental health in the workplace.

We are also delighted to welcome Patricia Martin, founder and owner of Tricia Wellness. Tricia will be hosting a breathwork exercise that will include:

• Welcome and settling in
• Our breath signature
• The intricate role of the breath in supporting the nervous system
• Tips and techniques to use to regulate the nervous system to find balance.

In our challenging work environments we over stretch ourselves because we care about those whom we support and we want to do our best for them. Sometimes this comes at a personal cost that we do not appreciate until we become exhausted either mentally, physically or both. Burnout is how it is termed, and the experience is very real for many.

The breath allows us to notice when we are overextending ourselves, it helps us create space for rest and restoration.

We hope you’ll leave feeling equipped, encouraged and empowered to take meaningful steps in supporting both yourself and your colleagues.
