Five Ways to Wellbeing

15 May 2025

It’s never too late to prioritise your family’s wellbeing. The Five Ways to Wellbeing can help you create a simple, meaningful plan to support your family’s mental and emotional health.

Make it a family conversation - talk about your wellbeing goals together and incorporate them into your regular family time.

How will your family connect, be active, take notice, keep learning, and give back?

Using the Five Ways to Wellbeing with your family

Connect

have a regular family dinner and encourage your child to invite a friend
participate in school activities or events to meet other school families
organise a weekly family board game
plan inside or outside games where everyone can have fun together
make time for important people in your life.

Be active

walk, ride, jog or swim together before or after school
play sport together
go hiking
go camping
go for a bush walk
explore your neighbourhood.

Take notice

encourage your child to think of three things they are grateful for each day
teach your child how to meditate
teach your child to notice things or people that make them happy.

Keep learning

take up a new hobby as a family and learn together
get your child to teach you the language they are learning at school
travel and learn about different cultures and places
learn about the history of your community
find out about your family history.

Give

give your time as a family to a cause that is important to you
