Reviews: Your Work Wellness Toolkit (1)
“A good idea for those new to the workplace, struggling with burn-out or looking for work-life balance”
(Paperback)
This is an interesting little book, full of practical exercises & things to ponder in relation to the workplace & your attitudes to work with helpful tips on time management, managing stress and handling change. Written by a psychologist, the little exercises get you thinking and reflecting on what changes you could make & focus on work-life balance rather than constant productivity.
It is an accessible read, and I am sure it will be useful for many people who have transitioned to working from home rather than in an office, those returning to a new/different workplace following the pandemic, or who are entering “office work” for the first time. It is very focussed on those working in an office/desk-based job and people working in less conventional or more reactive/service based jobs may not get so much from it. As such, much of it didn’t really work for me – I am not in the sort of environment where I can listen to music to help me focus, or where I can fully plan my days as things happen that must take priority.
It doesn’t work so well as an e-book, but the paper version is definitely appealing though it feels targeted at a female audience with the cute, rather feminine style
Disclosure: I received an advance reader copy of this book free via NetGalley. Whilst thanks go to the author & publisher for the opportunity to read it, all opinions are my own.
