by kevin in Mind & Body 0 comments
Sometimes we forget about the most important things in life. Often we neglect the mind, body and spirit and wonder why we feel so down and depressed. Amazingly, a low mood can be lifted by doing something so simple. Nourishing your psyche with exercise, mental health and bodily functions that improve our well-being is simply not performed enough. Often it is the smallest things like breathing properly that we overlook. We will touch on breathing and how it should be done later, but right now it’s important to understand that three significant parts of ourselves are interdependent: the mind, body and soul. The soul is more commonly known as the spirit. And there is nothing religious or paranormal in this fact. Every person born has a spirit. If you look after your spirit, the mind and body will see the benefits. It is a positive way to banish depression, mental instabilities, physical ailments and a variety of other complications that bring us down. Looking after the spirit is not as simple as flicking a switch, you must act to get your spirits high and lift yourself to heights you never thought would have been possible. So, where does one start? […]

It goes without saying that most of the food that a majority of us each everyday has something ordered from a fast food or restaurant, or is one of those ‘easy to make’ products if you are cooking the food at your home. Whatever the case, most of it (from the fast-food joints anyway) is actually very unhealthy and is popularly known as ‘junk food’. If you are among those people who eat this kind of food every day, then it’s about time that you change, and these unhealthy chemicals found in the food you eat will be enough to change your mind: 1. Trans-Fats: Almost any unhealthy packaged food that you can imagine has trans-fats in it. French fries and your favorite Doritos Nachos are just some examples of them. Not only do they increase your levels of bad cholesterol or LDL cholesterol, they also decrease the level of good or HDL cholesterol, something which puts an enormous amount of strain on your arteries. Speaking of arteries, trans fats are known to be even worse than saturated fats, causing more than 50,000 premature heart attacks by clogging the, you guessed it, arteries. 2. Salt: Everything that’s consumed in moderation […]

8 Tips to Support Workplace Mental Health

by admin in Mind & Body 0 comments
If your workplace had a job process that racked up near-misses or injuries, the EHS team wouldn’t hesitate to intervene by investigating any incident to determine its causes, conducting a hazard assessment to identify hazards and instituting controls using the hierarchy of controls as a preventative guide to avoid incidents before they happen. Mental health in the workplace should be taken just as seriously as physical health. Organizations can take steps to help limit burnout and other poor mental health outcomes. The challenge is immense. The CDC estimates that 40% of American adults struggled with their mental health in 2020, and 71% reported having difficulty managing stress and feeling overwhelmed. With these numbers, it’s not surprising that many in the environment, health and safety (EHS) field are beginning to see mental health as an area of great professional concern. A standard published in June 2021 by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is an example of how mental health is being placed more firmly under the rubric of occupational safety. ISO 45003 provides guidance for managing psychosocial risks in the workplace and supports ISO 45001, a widely respected standard on safety management systems.
