Wellbeing Roundup, Powered by JAAQ: February 2026

Think of this as your team sheet for your mind, where we look back at last month’s action, share the top plays, and spotlight the resources and support that help keep our mental game strong.

February was a busy month on the mental fitness front, and we’ve teamed up with our partners at JAAQ to bring you the stats, top questions, and new conversations you won’t want to miss.

What’s been on your minds?

Last month on JAAQ, our members were digging into some big topics. Here’s the top 5 most searched:

  1. Addiction
  2. Burnout
  3. Elite Performance
  4. Mindset
  5. Sleep

The most-watched video last month?

Steven Caulker on Addiction. In this conversation, Steven shares how his football career was deeply affected by gambling addiction, alcohol abuse, depression, and anxiety, describing how the money and pressure in professional football allowed his addiction to spiral and damage his career, relationships, and mental health. He explains that recovery came through honesty, therapy, support groups like Alcoholics Anonymous and Gamblers Anonymous, and by focusing on daily recovery, helping others, and staying connected to supportive people.

Top Questions asked in February

We get a lot of questions from our members. Here’s the most common mental health challenges you were keen to tackle;

  1. Can staying physically fit help me stay mentally fit?
  2. I want to stop gambling, any advice
  3. What is burnout?
  4. A loved one suffers from addiction, how do I help?
  5. What are the signs of burnout?
  6. What are the top tips for preventing burnout?
  7. How can I be more resilient?
  8. How do I start healthy habits?
  9. How much sleep do I need?

If any of these are on your mind, don’t worry,  you’re in good company, and JAAQ have the expert advice to help you tackle them.
