MentCouch’s MentaBox is a thoughtful and supportive initiative to aid their well-being. Within this box, we provide resources for self-help which can contribute significantly to our well-being and foster a positive environment around us. It Includes researched and validated items that are proven to promote relaxation, mindfulness, stress relief, and self-care which can be beneficial for their daily lives. They are essential in setting up a healthy and positive space. The idea behind this was to give employees the freedom to manage their emotions at their own pace.
Remember that mental health is a sensitive topic, and employees or your friends may have different preferences and needs. Consider conducting an anonymous survey to gather feedback on what your employees or friends would like to see in the mental health box or get in touch with us to offer them the option to customize their own box based on a provided budget. Additionally, fostering an open and supportive company or home culture that promotes mental health conversations is vital in conjunction with providing these resources.
