“I've had a difficult day at work”
A Moment to Debrief — After a Difficult Day
A quiet ten minutes to set down what the day handed you, sort what is yours to carry, and decide what care you need next.
Open resource — freeSpirit Led Institute · Free Workplace Wellbeing
Workplace wellbeing, when people need a moment.
Free resources for the people experiencing difficult moments at work. Professional education for those responsible for shaping the workplace around them.
Four short, independent, self-paced reflective resources — around ten minutes each. Free to open on any phone or computer, with no sign-in, account or code. Read one in the break room, on the bus home, or once the day has gone quiet.
Welcome to share with your staff if you work in HR or People & Culture, manage a team, or look after an organisation.
What do I need right now?
Pick the one that sounds closest. Each gives you space to slow down, name what you are carrying and think about what care or support you need next. They are reflective education — they don’t change workplace systems or promise particular outcomes.

When Work Changes
For people who remain while the workplace shifts around them — restructure, colleagues leaving, new duties, a new team or a new manager.
Open resource — freeVoluntary, independent and private
- Using these resources is always voluntary.
- No employer sees names, reflections, answers or whether someone finishes. The reflection boxes are never saved or sent.
- They are independent of any workplace and sit alongside — not instead of — existing support such as an EAP, managers, peer support and GPs.

Subject: Free, private wellbeing resources — available any time Hi everyone, We'd like to share four free reflective resources from Spirit Led Institute. Each takes about ten minutes and can be opened on your phone or computer, with no sign-in, account or code: • A Moment to Debrief — after a difficult day • Debriefing When Employment Ends — when a job has ended • After a Workplace Hazard — after an unsafe event or near miss • When Work Changes — when you remain through restructure, new duties or a new manager https://spiritledinstitute.com/workplace-wellbeing Using them is entirely voluntary. They are private: nothing you write is saved, and we can't see who opens them or what anyone writes. They sit alongside — not instead of — our existing support, such as our EAP, your manager and your GP. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 000. For crisis support, Lifeline is available 24/7 on 13 11 14.
Suggested voluntary-participation wording
These resources are offered as an optional extra. Using them is completely voluntary, is not part of performance or attendance, and is private — the organisation cannot see who opens them, what is written or whether anyone finishes. They are independent educational resources, not counselling or crisis support, and they do not replace our existing support options.
Professional Development
Support your people. Strengthen your workplace.
The free Workplace Wellbeing resources above support people through difficult moments — they stay free, voluntary and private. When work has affected someone’s dignity, confidence, belonging, professional identity or trust in their own judgement, a deeper guided journey is available if they choose it.
