As part of her wellbeing toolkit, Ruth Sutherland keeps this checklist pinned above the kettle so she can glance at it while making her morning cuppa. The idea was taken from a podcast where a GP was discussing the small daily actions that can improve our wellbeing. It serves as a simple reminder of the habits, connections and routines that help Ruth stay resilient through the ups and downs of farming life. Some days she can tick off more than others, but the checklist isn't about being perfect. It's about recognising what's already going well and identifying where a little extra attention might be needed.
