What is Mental Health?

Mental health is defined not just in terms of the absence of a mental disorder but as a state of wellbeing in which every individual realises their own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully and is able to make a contribution to their own community. (World Health Organisation)

The Mental Health Foundation states:
Good mental health is characterised by a person's ability to fulfil a number of key functions & activities, including:
The ability to learn
The ability to feel, express and manage a range of positive and negative emotions
The ability to form and maintain good relationships with others
The ability to cope with and manage change & uncertainty

What is a Playbook?

A Playbook is a document designed to shape high-performance teams and individuals. 

They are visual and combine highly impactful images and words, organised for quick reference and easy retention.
