Suppressed emotions tend to leak out, often in the wrong direction. Think of putting a lid on a boiling pot - the boiling liquid just leaks out in different directions, often out of control. We all have emotions, all the time! They don’t stop just because we go to work. In fact, the workplace is the source of many of our emotions. So suppressing our emotions in work just means we’re taking energy away from our focus and performance. But neither is it helpful for our emotions to spill out all over the place. So what’s the answer? We need to be able to feel emotionally safe in the workplace. Our leaders need to be trained and supported to be more emotionally attuned. We are all human, after all, and when we feel safe to be vulnerable that actually empowers us to be strong too. Relationships thrive when there is safety and trust; and when our relationships are thriving, and we feel connected at work - we are motivated and engaged, allowing for optimum performance.

Ever feel like you're just going through the motions at work and in life? We've all been there – worn out, bored, or stuck in a feeling we can't explain. Here at toxicworkspaces.com, we understand that weird, off feeling. We call it the FUNK – a temporary state of feeling maxed out and disconnected. If the above 👆 resonates with you, the first step is acknowledging it. It's okay to not feel like yourself sometimes. To break free from the funk, embrace self-reflection, surround yourself with positive influences, savor joyful foods, and move your body. Our favorite remedy? Unplug and give your mind a break. Most funks are brief, but if yours lingers without those breakthrough moments, it's time to seek support. Our team at Toxic Work Spaces is here for professionals navigating the workplace, especially toxic work spaces – because Your Well-Being Matters. Get in touch with us and let our team help you navigate the FUNK. Wishing you all an amazing afternoon. #toxicworkspaces #wellness #Wellbeing #mentalhealth #selfcare #professionals

“𝐈 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐝𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐝𝐞𝐭𝐨𝐱” I have heard this short sentence a few times recently around me.

🔦OPPORTUNITY AND MOTIVATION FOR BEHAVIOUR CHANGE The other two considerations for research on the COM-B wheel, before developing an initiative are, what OPPORTUNITY and MOTIVATION do your target audience have? Here are some #energyreduction examples for the workplace 🧑🏻🤝🧑🏼Social Opportunity - opportunities, rules, norms plus social cues in the social sphere. e.g. seeing other people leave things on or turn off will inform others 🛗Physical Opportunity – How do objects, events, time, materials and finances affect them. e.g. automatic lights, lifts, smart meters and grants 📶Reflective Motivation - conscious planning and decision making. E.g. making a decision about walking up the stairs instead of getting the lift 😶🌫️Automatic Motivation - instinctive reactions that are habitual or emotionally driven. E.g. habits of leaving lights on. Where do you see these playing out in your workplace? #energyefficiency #behaviourchange #workplace

Unplug to Unlock 🔓 Elevate your success with calm and focus "The ability to perform deep work is becoming increasingly rare at exactly the same time it is becoming increasingly valuable." - Cal Newport For years now I've been focused on health and wellness, but I never truly appreciated the link with professional achievement. I started to become a bit more self-aware as new healthy habits became regular, from saunas to sensory deprivation tanks, and meditation practice. Interestingly, I found that when I had more challenging problems at my doorstep, or massive projects to handle, it wasn't the midnight oil at my desk under fluorescent lights yielding the best results. In fact, that seemed to cause me more anxiety, and frustrating roadblocks in architecting solutions. The pings of Slack, people popping into the office, text messages, and countless apps slammed me with inputs all day - a sensory overload. By actively removing this from your week, even for a short time, It will improve the way you narrow in on problem-solving and focus. I would suggest companies consider how they encourage this behavior in the design of their employee perks and benefits, because while there will always be room for the "whirlwind" type days and putting out fires... ...the best progress comes from thoughtfully and deeply planning those 360° solutions without distraction. Some solutions require hammers, the others a thoughtful brush stroke of intellect. . . . . #employee #mentalhealth #problemsolving
