Some of the ways to achieve this balance include: schedule brief breaks throughout the day; create a buffer between work and home; and participate in daily exercise activities. Individuals can empower themselves by researching the programs, policies and benefits at their workplace. These are just some of the ways in which a better work-life balance can be achieved.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"609239\" data-originallang=\"en\">Canada's new government has made significant investments to reach out in practical and compassionate ways to promote mental health and to assist those who have mental illness to recover and live full and productive lives. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"609240\" data-originallang=\"en\">Please join me in wishing all those who work for mental health a very successful week.</p>",

On peut aussi se donner les moyens en faisant des recherches sur les programmes, politiques et avantages sociaux dont on peut b\u00e9n\u00e9ficier au travail.
