Nursing Now Challenge Wellness Day
In honour of World Health Day, on 9th April, we will hold a series of sessions to support you in prioritising your wellbeing.
We invite you to participate in a transformative Wellness Day designed to prioritise well-being. This is an opportunity to pause, reflect, and engage in a series of sessions aimed at helping you to restore balance and reconnect with yourself. Throughout the day, you will have access to expert-led workshops, mindfulness practices, and relaxation techniques that will help you cultivate a sense of calm and clarity.
The sessions include:
During this session, Lajja will use tools of art making to help individuals address their feelings and situations. Simple drawings give us a clearer perspective on why we feel the way we do, while also giving us the clarity on how to move ahead. Art-making exercises are a great way to help us discover our innermost feelings including our strengths which we may have forgotten in the rush of every day lives. This 90 minute sessions promises to do just that, bring a little more clarity in the chaos of everyday life.
- 11:00am – 12:00pm BST – Health Action Training with Dr Karl Tizzard-Kleister
- 1pm – 2pm BST – Self-Compassion with Dr Marti Balaam
- 2pm – 3pm BST – Music for mental health with Martine Brighton
The Music for Mental Health workshop will explore the powerful connection between music and wellbeing. During the session, we’ll reflect on how music can support emotional expression and mental health, and we’ll explore practical tools and strategies for using music as a form of self-expression.
This session will introduce The Power of Words — a transformative emotional intelligence framework designed for nurses and midwives.
Through storytelling, guided reflection, and practical tools, participants will explore seven core emotions that support healing, resilience, and meaningful connection. Even without physical tools in hand, this interactive session offers a powerful starting point for inner balance and compassionate care in high-pressure environments.
